Process Development & Implementation

analysis of information and file systems with RIM consulting and records managment consultants

We utilize a combination of Six Sigma and Lean philosophies to compliment the development, implementation and quality control methods.

One of the major benefits of our process is its demand for a fact-based and data-driven analytical approach. Each project is evaluated and tested through a series of processes that enables maximum efficiency and quality controls.

In short, what sets our Lean Six Sigma process apart from its individual components is the recognition that you cannot do "just quality" or "just speed," you need a balanced process that can help and focus on improving service quality, as defined by the customer within a set time limit. These processes allow us to:

  • Emphasize the need to recognize opportunities and eliminate defects as defined by customers
  • Recognizes that variation hinders our ability to reliably deliver high quality information management services
  • Require data driven decisions and incorporate a comprehensive set of quality tools under a powerful framework for effective problem solving
  • Provides a highly prescriptive cultural infrastructure effective in obtaining sustainable results
  • Focus on maximizing process velocity
  • Provide tools for analyzing process flow and delay times at each activity in a process
  • Center on the separation of "value-added" from "non-value-added" work with tools to eliminate the root causes of non-valued activities and their cost

Our approach to deploying records and information managment teams within our organization is to ensure that each member knows what is expected of them.

Testimonial

knowledgeable records management consulting and record file services

"They determined our file folder volume needs, provided all of the conversion supplies, generated the bar codes and color labels ahead of time and then brought in a file conversion team to complete the transfer. The operation was clean and simple. We would never have been able to have completed it utilizing only our staff."

"This was a very professional experience. Jen was very knowledgeable and friendly. Thanks for a great job!"

"Southwest Solutions, in particular Jen, made the file conversion process as painless as possible, considering we were moving and getting use to our new environment while the conversion was taking place. I also really appreciate the fact that Jen made every effort to stay on schedule, even when a few curve balls were thrown her way. Basically, she has been all about finding solutions!"
