be notified via email.yes and no both
yes : as a rigor, problem solving structured methodology, as a change management tool it will
no : six sigma as a rigor provides a linear way of thinking, creativity, innovation, breakthrough ideas often get generated by other methodologies. (mckinsey says MECE – quite similar to six sigma rigor, TRIZ, ASIT, USIT and the likes) etc shall get merged with six sigma, to generate better solutions. If one says an organization is purely implementing only six sigma, probably no.

indreshParticipant@indreshInclude @indresh in your post and this person will
be notified via email.Hi,
If i correctly understand, the problem is not employee attrition but how to prevent data going out to competitors.
As suggested by QC, you may look at code of conduct which are general guidelines, signed off by each employee on data security as their responsibility
However you may even drill down to find out who all departments maintain customer sensitive data (even rate the senstivity to prioritise)
Further you would be able to get down to which all process use which all data and which all systems have access to this vital data. Hope this will give you inputs to implement data security measures from IT, from people (policy) etc point of view.
Also keep track of any outsourced party handling critical data
hope this helps

Management would be needing a solid business case to cut the shift timings as it will boil down to adding few more resources which comes at a cost.
If you can provide a detailed analysis, and validate that probability of an error by agent increases beyond 7.5 hrs, or call quality decreases, or AHT increases, or wrong registration increases or any of the other factors, which can be linked with productivity, repeat calls, customer dissatisfaction increase thereby causing a financial impact, it would be considered viable.
The cost benefit analysis should yield positive results of reducing number of shift hours to 7.5 and adding more agents, than continuing with the same number of shift hours and taking a toll in one of the factors highlighted above.
hope this helps

Use Anova when Y is dicrete and X is continuous data. If you wanna find if there is any difference that exist between time taken to deliver (continuous) between three different couriers (discrete)
Use regression when both Y and X are continuous. Read Sandors model 3 and 1. Example : weight is dependent on age, time taken to deliver courier is dependent on distance etc

Parallely figure out these quick ones
– most of the calls belong to which category – query, complaint or requests – this shall be industry specific, am sure such categorization is available for your industry as well. Can few of them be routed to self care options, which can be IVR, SMS based, Web Based solutions to cut down the calls. At the end of it pareto principle holds valid, pick the top ones and see any one can be routed giving ease, faster resolution to customer
– convergence as highighted by answer rate is critical to look into. How many screens an agent refers too, which one most often, in case multiple can we converge them into one.
– drilled down agent analysis as well comes handy. Higher tenure agents take less time to resolve (hypothesis), rostering plans etc can accordingly be changed for high volume hours.
– BASIC data should be right, the volume that you are currently seeing , is it actual, or it includes repeat attempts by customer as well. MSA is very critical, if possible get data of calls at each point before it reached the agent. Answer rate very rightly pointed to systems, hardware, software, medium, etc which effects call transfer etc.
Hope this helps!

anyways i have worked on the same in one of my assignments
you may like to get the various independent variables ready…..probably start with brainstorming
Turnover is dependent on = age on board, employee rating, his rating on esat survey, basic salary, number of days he was trained, his performance in last quarter, leaves taken, sex, department, grade, incremental increase in salary as told for next job, migratory or a non migratory source and the list goes on
To add personality factors you may like to include factors like His need for achievement rating, need for power rating, his rating for his immediate supervisor, and rating on organization policies etc etc.
You would be able to come up with few of these factors which influences decision to leave
Check out few empirical research findings at paid sites like academy of management etc

Classic definition from this site itself
i hope this makes things clear
in cases where we wanna find out if there exist an relation between y and x , null would be no there does not hence less the p value we take that relationship exists. similarily if we are to find out is there any difference between these two populations etc null is that there is no difference and higher the p value higher the probability that there actually exist no relation or chances of there existing a relation is less.

my two cents on this
– get voice of all customers involved in both the processes, take two as separate ones, customers shall be management and workers etc
– get their expectations on these two processes and do a QFD to get the right CTQ’s
am sure once you have done this right management shall buy that in immediately
involve some of the key people. use some CAP tools like ARMI etc to identify people
opportunities etc shall be calculated only based on your data, target and current performance ….so CTQ’s first

doing a project in attrition calls for several things
– what does the management expect out of that, is it a top level overview of reasons for leaving or you wanna do thorough analysis and come out with predictability model for employee attrition ?
– data validity and flexibility given by management – to what level of data sharing they are ready to do with you and what kind of flexibility they are ready to provide to you in terms of data collection and checking the validity of the same.
– in attrition what is the measurable that management is focussing on and how serious they are in using the learnings of the project. as an advocate of six sigma i put this across very seriously to my management that they should make this a serious business

being from service industry have dealt with this
try using following which helps bring in the culture
– align KRA’s with customer impact
– define measurables to get the voice of customer. number of complaints, call quality, customer survey etc are scattered data, bring it together. Calculate if possible price of non conformance. example complaints calls result in repeat calls and customer churn (get data on it)
– once these are all converted into financial buy in is more
– initiate process improvement champions within departments, they are those who are trained on basic stuff like FMEA and root cause analysis etc. this helps
– R&R of course but make sure its on long term sustenance else it becomes a short term motivation
– rope in HoD’s or managers and above through projects, even if one closes rest follows

several reasons
– the six sigma project was not provided with support (that can be in any form, be it management support, infra, money or people) and hence the solutions proposed and implemented were not the same or were not implemented in the manner expected to be
– controls established were weak. this reason i would say is critical. either controls are not taken looked into by the operator, process owners, special causes ignored which effect the capability, any change in environment when shows on the control chart is not looked into etc
– innovation and mistake proofing not done – most of the six sigma projects especially in service industry also suffer from non usage of innovation and mistake proofing. since most of the processes are carried out by people than by machines, sustaining of solutions become difficult.
– people leaving and lack of knowledge management.0September 13, 2005 at 9:53 am #126747

be notified via email.Do you go to office each day, ok lets assume that office time is 9:30 and you reach on one day at 9:40, 9:20 etc etc.
No this shows that there is a process variation that means that you were not able to reach the office exactly day after day at 9:30 sharp.
If you plot all these points on a graph over a period of time you will have a normal data, that means some of the time you have reached bit late and some time early though the average would be around 9:30. assuming no major delays takes place due to any external factors etc.
now if you boss says that no coming before 9:15 and not after 9:50, hence you will identify in all days that you have come how many were beyond 9:50 (defects as per boss) as well before 9:15 (defects as per boss)
with this current data lets assume your average was 9:30 and variation was 5 minutes. hence at 1 sigma you would be take all the time that you have come between 9:25 and 9:35, at 2 sigma at 9:20 and 9:40 and so on. but this shows that at 3 sigma you touch your customer limits hence you are able to put in only 3 standard deviations between mean and customer specifications.
now when the process is at 6 sigma you are able to fit in 6 standard deviations. at 7 sigma 7 and so on. when you take 100 points you will get only 0.00034 points beyond customer specifications limits when the process of your coming to office is at 6 sigma. on 1 million it becomes 3.4. anything beyond 6 this 3.4 goes in decimals hence we take 6 which is 99.99966% error free closest to zero error, but you may take it forward and have 7 sigma process which will have 1 defect in a billion opportunities and so on and so forth.

this happens and its perfectly norma
all the more why it happens is due to the fact that certain obvious things generally get neglected by process owners and once you start highlighting those things they become sensitive and start improving rather controlling their processes. Its detection which has increased and has brought in the results
would suggest do an extensive FMEA and see if all controls are working and are present as well. only then you will be able to sustain the improvements
further to this over a period of time when it stabalises at certain level of capability you can use six sigma tools to further enhance it and you shall realise more data oriented tools will be required after a certain level of capability

with all people replying they have hinted to the fact that see if we can remove these special causes. well for the customer if these special causes occur with so low a frequency as to have a capability of 4 sigma then customer obviously choose the server 2, subject to criticality of defect.

you can’t tell upfront to anybody who is new to six sigma that his experience holds no importance, i hope you are not teaching anywhere. anyways i do take your point and have also written the same that one should have some mesaurables for which one should collect data and then proceed since data only can give validity to your assumption and thereby increase your chances of not making an error

yes surely you can do, in fact experience counts
but when you follow a Six Sigma rigor, its improvement methodology based on data and root causes identified based on valid set of figures. this shall be aiming it correctly and shooting the arrow to have almost surity that it will hit the bull’s eye
your gut feel may or may not be the exact solution.
if you have undergone the training (even basics of Six Sigma) then you must be knowing ” everything can be measured, and till we measure we can’t improve”. do a QFD to link your output to measurable inputs and then collect data
and still if you have the same question, i suggest undergo the six sigma training once again …………no pun intended

but would like to make a point here, the parameters which the customer uses to answer questions in CSI surveys needs to be linked with the internal measures not necessarily the audit measures that we do internally on our call centre.
giving you an example
– we ask customer rate us on scale of 1-5 (poor to excellent) on ease of getting through our call centre
using the DMAIC rigor lead to first have all internal measures which impact this process (customer call – call coming to IVR- call routing to agent level etc)
internal measure included switch congestion, IVR ports availability and workstations availability based on call volumes during peak and non pak hours
hence these internal parameters with data lead to root causes and reaching optimum solution.
so both your queries i suppose have been answered as to relation between CSat and internal scores and if we can use DMAIC

adding my two cents
– start with the business objectives – be in increase in brand, enhance retail network, enhance deposits, enhance customer satisfaction, enhance profitability
– link these with the critical output measures that we have and further link to processes and sub processes
– give appropriate weightage and status as is (this shall ensure gap identification)
These steps are for buy in from top management. Create if possible shareholder scorcards (typical CAP tool)
– six sigma awareness session module shall start next for these top guys, as to how shall six sigma ensure meeting all these objectives, this shall help getting a buy in
– provide the improvements in financial terms, savings, profits, etc etc
– then get resources (1 BB per 100 employees – example)
– get them trained (or train them if you can)
– conduct awareness session for all employees, and initiate first the lean tools to the front end customer facing guys, for providing quick fixes of daily activities.
– initiate GB training for top guys and bring it link it to the front end guys

– write down the process step in detailed (include) all the activities that you are doing at every step
– number the steps
– do a time and motion study, which step is taking how much time, if possible measure it as accurate as possible
– highlight steps as VA (value adding) these are those for which the customer to the output of the process is paying you for
– Highlight Steps as NVA(non value adding) they are just adding on to the delay and cause error or other waste (resource etc)
– Highlight steps as VE (they enable you to achieve the output (internal processing etc is VE)
now you have a ready action platform, think about removing steps which are NVA, automate VE and shrink the process keeping in mind the output
– do an analysis of defect causing steps and find why defects are coming (as 5 times why and you shall know the cause)
these are specific lean sigma techniques very powerful to initiate process improvements and generate lots of quick wins

further drill down came out with several inputs which goes in for good brand like
– faculty to student ratio
– placements (being a management college)
– number of companies to students ratio
– computer to student ratio
– number of international journals to student ratio etc etc
similarly for the other objective
then second drill down got automatically linked to various processes which goes in the college. cost effectiveness came in drill down on profitability
projects were taken on those
hope this helps
rgds,
since i was a mentor and then shifted to kolkata, i am not sure how far have they implemented the same

indreshParticipant@indreshInclude @indresh in your post and this person will
be notified via email.let me give you specific inputs than talking like a typical consultant
– we use standardised gallup GWM and Q 12, you may also list down some inputs which govern employee sat, example : job profile, laid down processes and clarity of what needs to be done, salary, good manager (mentors, leaders, etc), good culture (openness etc), ethical brand of organisation, development path laid down, friendly HR policies etc etc etc.
– if you don’t have standardised questionnaire which have construct and content validity, then easiest one is to get the inputs through brainstorming among key top management people, rank them in priority, then construct the questionnaire with each parameters being measured by atleast 3 questions
– pilot test it on sample and see if the data collected indicates the same ranking as being given by top management, if yes, you are measuring what needs to be measured. (top management of course is a part of the population), if you can manage brainstorming from randomly selecting people across departments across levels nothing like it
– once you have established validity of the questionnaire get it filled by all
– data then needs to be analysed across departments, across levels for all parameters which effect employee sat, action points might straight be derived from indicators or one level drill down might be required

– average call handling time of the agent is the output Y. check for the maximum call handling time for query, complaint or request calls
– check for these respective inputs like – call handling time = call answering time+hold time+wrap up time, see the contributor
– hold time can be reduced by providing several information on one screen (front end) or a URL which can be referred to. also enhance decision power of agents (especially to reduce time taking approvals etc), specific inputs through training on certain process after listening to few long duration calls
the entire data can be collected for the last one month to arrive at improvements
We always reduce call handling time for our sake (reduce operating expenses by enhancing productivity) but make sure what the customer wants (resolution), hence agents should not become time sensitive but customer sensitive

indreshParticipant@indreshInclude @indresh in your post and this person will
be notified via email.my two cents on the same
ISO standards provide detailing every minute aspect of a work flow, if done properly and adhered to strictly it produces quality output as far as standardisation is concerned. The process output requirements are validated by the customer but not frequently updated, so is not able to meet requirements of the customer over a period of time, if output of the process as documented is not changed as per the change in requirements. Most companies uses ISO standards for documenting processes and using them for reference and audits but not validating the deliverables with the customer.
Whereas Six Sigma starts with the customer and provides much dynamic process improvement methodology. The process capability is calculated by finding the Gap between deliverables and customer requirements and calling them defects. Six sigma methodology utilises statistical ways to provide indications to areas in the process which are contributing to maximum variation.
Proactive organisations are utilising the detailing of process being done by ISO and capturing voice of customer for each and every step (as done in six sigma method) which has an impact on the final deliverables of the process and constantly validate the same to identify the gaps and improve continuously.
hope this helps further

indreshParticipant@indreshInclude @indresh in your post and this person will
be notified via email.my two cents on that
lets take a broader view. the same was implemented for my organisation and has shown result
three perspectives of sales happening (we are working through channel and not directly where things as suggested by bharat holds true as inputs
– channel loyalty index (how many of retailers when visited by mystery consumer) told your product as TOM (top of mind). to a shock this was the biggest Gap between high TOM and ITP scores(of product) and sales not happening
– channel visibility : for various kinds of retailers visibility was defined and simple audit done on presence absent of mandatory requirements as (glow sign board, atleast one product poster etc). this was good control as marketing department ensured they service all touch points
– channel awareness : again survey with basic questions on product got the score
this gives an overall idea who is at fault (sales people) or marketing
all inputs in terms of sales people soft skills, their relationship builiding, their regular visits etc improved automatically
these output parameters became KRA of individuals
sales pre and post clearly showed increase converted into $.

indreshParticipant@indreshInclude @indresh in your post and this person will
be notified via email.if i may add my two cents to the discussion
– generally asking you all, what shall make you leave or let me put in another way, what shall make you not leave your current company.
i am doing an empirical research on employee attrition in the first two years of any newly set up organisation and have taken the following factors
you may check the validity and let me know if they fit in your area of operations
– the score of an individual on need for achievement (thematic apperception tests)
– the style of manager on GRID
– the ease of entry into the market by the organisation
– migratory work force or local
all these factors are being studied for their effect on performance rating of the individual quarterly and tenure with the company
these individuals are those who have left the company within two years of set up( methodology is to contact each individual who has left and administer the standardised tests )
these factors if you look at are independent of level,. grade etc hence takes care of the analysis at a broader level
for sure they shall be linked to the recruitment strategy for newly set up company

thanks, shall for sure burn my hands on it.
though we don’t have a 360 degree kinda review mechanism but can say that its 270 degrees (new thing i HR :-)), where the employee puts across his rating, thgen discuss the same with his boss (appraiser) and then they both sit with the boss’s boss (reviewer). As you correctly said untrained people getting involved will skew the data, and the irony is that most of the organisations decide the future of their employees on this.
needed a suggestion from you side, i am carrying out a research to find the linkage between the
– managerial style (blake and muton) of boss
– need for achievement scores of employee (TAT scores)
– migratory nature of workforce (yes or no)
– ease of competition faced by the organtisation (high medium low)
on employee performance rating and his tenure with newly set up business units (service sctor) in india.
Measurement systems chosen are few psychological tests, do you think they are good enough as they too are reliable but lack validity.??
your view points
if need be mail me at [email protected] as i feel that there i have lots to learn

i don’t think that i got what you meant to say, please elaborate
measurement system can be anything which gives the same result on the same sample if measured again and again : absolute layman’s language, open to your expert comments
gallup survey provides information on the areas where most of the employees have rated the organisation low. these indicators inspite of conducting the survey again does not change overall. the scores can be the CTQ to start with though it would be one of the Y’s and the several X’s needs to be drilled down
i am not sure what your post hinted at but as always curious to learn would appreciate in caseyou elaborate on it

few of them are as follows
– reducing the time for hiring
– enhancing effectiveness of hiring source
– enhance employee satisfaction by reducing the number of employees working on weekend
since we use the gallup to measure employee satisfaction quite a number of projects are aimed at enhacing scores on few parameters one of them being ” my opinion counts”. if you have similar kind of validated measurement systems you can pick up such projects
– reducing attrition

prerequisites for implementation of six sigma. Check the acceptance levels
– is management too keen on it (even if they are keen don’t initiate)
– are they willing to provide support in terms of devoting time and enforcing at times on others
if they are then
– get some basic hang of DMAIC methodology. Its not a rocket science, so don’t feel scared at any given point of time
– get the objectives clear from management- what are they trying to achieve, what are the pain areas
– define the customer requirement (customer =anybody who receives output of the process)
– initiate projects
kind of projects that i can think of coming out of the work that you undertake (quality assurance for all creatives that are generated)
– increase recall % of creatives
– create visibility index (perceptual registering of brand name and content)
– enhance repeat business from existing clients
– reduce time to deliver creatives
– errors and rework / corrections done etc etc
i work for telecom company not aware of your processes
six sigma can be applied to anything that can be measured, and till it is measured it cannot be improved, hence in case we want to improve we can do it by six sigma

– you get the salary for the work that you do month on month, and you know the amount of the salary that you shall get in your account on the 1st /30th of the month, but still you check the salary slip and go through it once
you call it human tendency of being insecure perhaps “YES”
even in the brake example the satisfaction never reaches 100% since the functionality of the brake is not just to stop the car, it is to stop the car immediately at whatever speed to avoid accident, this additonal expectation as pointed out by my friend sigmordial makes some element of not 100% satified in it.
thats perhaps the reason companies spend money to create the air brakes, electronic brakes and disc brakes etc etc etc and market it well to reduce this insecurity further thus making the line extremely close to 100% satisfaction
hope this suffice

indreshParticipant@indreshInclude @indresh in your post and this person will

thanks for replying
will reply to all questions again asked
TIM , LAXMAN, DARTH, ROBERT
The regression equation is Rise = 2.92 + 0.467 Load + 2.04 Time – 0.0257 Mts – 0.066 Temp + 0.00278 Trafic
even i tried that, though that shows no significance
ok will tell you what was the data collection procedure for this
– this is data of every cell site (GSM), load is the number of sectors that the site supports and traffic is the number of calls that were reported during that time period
– aim is to schedule the battery before the diesel generator so that when the power goes (mains fail) the site should first go on battery, thereby reducing the run time for DG. Now when the site is on battery the AC (air conditioner) does not work and thereby the temperature rises. the temp rise is dependent on the current the equipment are drawing from the battery which is dependent on traffic (number of calls ). At every site the technician was asked to switch off the mains supply putting the site on battery and note the tem rise after interval of time (somewhere it was 30,60,90,120,150,180) and somewhere it was taken on an hourly basis (statistically don’t think that should be a big factor for creating a bias in analysis). The battery life and the equipment life is uneffected till 40degree C average for the entire year, beyond which it is reduced to half.
– we are finding out a optimised path to schedule the time for which battery should run before the DG is switched on in order to again run the AC to bring the temp down, without effecting the effeciency of the site
on analysing the data, i found that in the first hour the temp rise is high but after the first hour is over it follows a normal pattern of rise, this can be attributed to matching the inside (shelter, where equipment is placed) to the outside temp, since its insulated it takes almost an hour to get to the outside temp.
– if we remove the rise of temp for the first one hour and then do the regression analysis, will it be of use, i still need to do that at minitab which i shall do it today and post it here
I WOULD REQUEST TO PROVIDE A LAYMAN’S EXPLANATION OF ANALYSIS ALONGWITH FOR BETTER UNDERSTANDING,
thanks again for all efforts

indreshParticipant@indreshInclude @indresh in your post and this person will
be notified via email.hi all,
went through the entire post, somewhere trying to gain clarity, what are we trying to address/discuss
anyways shall start with what i have understood
– somebody wanted to know how to calculate attrition , well i work for a telecom service provider , the largest in India with a background of HR though now working as black belt
see attrition is calculated on a larger period of time say quarterly/half yearly /yearly , the best way to get it measured yearly as we have slack months june-december when people generally don’t leave and you have jan – may when they leave may be when they are communicated that they belong to the lowest 10% of the bell curve on performance and they shall not be promoted/salary hiked as per expectation, or they after getting a hike negotiate with the other company once their yearly appraisals are over
formula used = (Number of employee left during the period)/opening number of employees at begining of the period (thats why year on year is better
now retention : somebody said it quite well, no company wants zero attrition they want the non performer, cultural mis fits to go
anybody doing a project on attrition should start with various factors that acounts for it like
– performance
– job (which shall have job role clarity)
– boss (people leave their bosses and not their companies)
– location (applicable for some organisation)
– salary (include timely, as per expectation, as per efforts – perceived value of his vis a vis salary given)
– inter personal relationships(with others :derivative of culture)
– rating in last appraisal
data collection three ways :
one from those who are leaving (exit interview feedback/ forms if they are objective)
second call them after they have left: they tell you more
third to collect reason from those who are joining you
for every specific thing need to drill down further as to what is expectation
believe you me if we can have a strong communication very objective about each and every body’s performance we shall be able to tackle this issue to quite an extent

we are not having any defective parts here
we are trying to get the correct sample size indicative of the population at 95% confidence. At the mentioned samples we are more than 95% confident that the required sample is a good indicative sample
and since we want to include all possible 192 combinations, each such combination has a population of 521 in the lot of 100000
so indicative sample of each possible combination from ITS population of 521 is 279 (refer sample size calculator at this site)
can mail me at [email protected] for further clarifications
rgds0May 14, 2004 at 4:06 am #100249
indreshParticipant@indreshInclude @indresh in your post and this person will
be notified via email.worked this way
assuming every comination is equally spread in 100000
unique units in 100000 (192 possible combinations) =100000/192 = 521
now all such sets of 521 (population of unique combination) you need to get a sample so at 95% confidence sample size is 279
since there are 192 sets of 521 to have valid sample size for each 192 combination it would be 279*192 = 53568

well saw your post at the dicsussion forum
well you may be requiring six sigma rigour (i prefer calling it a rigour) in all your daily activitiesspecifically in IT recruitment you may consider it in the following area
– reducing the turn around time to hire specific skills set (whichever might be the most difficult)
– optimising the source mix (sources through which recruitment is carried out)
– recruited employee alignment with job/role/performance for the first six months
– reduce cost per hire without comprimising on quality
rgds,

if required some specific inputs feel free to post it on the site0May 13, 2004 at 6:16 am #100136

be notified via email.assuming the 192 possible combinations are equally spread in 100000
the there are 520 unique samples of each type
to have a good sample (95% confidence and 4% margin error) required sample size per unique combination comes as 279 so for 192 it would be 192*279 = 53568 odd sample
i suppose 95 % confidence with 10% margin error would also be quite appropriate and that would give you sample per unique combination as 81 so total sample to have all unique combinations =81*192= 15552
would be eager to know from some expert if this method is valid

indreshParticipant@indreshInclude @indresh in your post and this person will
be notified via email.logically speaking take into account a few things
– will the personnel involved in all non value added stuff which you improved and tehreby shall never be required again
– if for example you reduce number of calls coming at a given point which are dependent on total subscribers you may reduce the headcount for few months but these people shall be required as the number of subscribers increase, typical case of linking projects savings which are short term
– if there is an automation done which reduced the personnel completely and which takes care of long term as well you may take the savings of their salaries
else can put the savings at the end of the year seeing that these personnels were not required at all and the process worked smoothly
hope it suffice

i received 11 email id’s of various people and i am sure it would be a great learning platform where in we can discuss whats happening in indian specific scenario so that the dissemination of learnings from various projects is faster and also the queries are more focussed at this site to six sigma champions across the globe
those who still would like to be a part of this initiative can send a short mail to [email protected]
we are planning to start exchange of learnings from 3rd of May

– faster and easy access
– quality of resolution
what business wants
– reduce repeated calls, rather they would want to reduce the total calls :-)
– cost per call
– effeiciency :- total calls handled by every agent which will be a derivative of call hold time, handling time wrap up time, etc etc
so measures used at our call center were mapped accordingly
Y1: Call/ Sub/ Month
Y2 – Service Level
X2.1: Abandon Level
X2.2: Call handling time
Y3: Congestion at IVR
X3.1: No. of channels per 1000 calls
Y4: Repeat Call %
X4.1: Call Audit Scores
X4.2: MES Feedback
Y5: Cost per call
X5.1: IVR Usage %
X5.2: Attrition %
Y6: Successful close looping
X6.1: % Call backs
X6.2: Complaints / Sub / Month
X6.3: Close Cancel %
X6.4: Wrong SR %
Y7 – Churn %
X7.3: % Customers calling on Comp. IVR
X7.4 – % Retention
Y8 – Quiz scores
X8.1: Induction Scores
X8.2: Refresher training
Y9 – Audit Score – Inbound Agents
X9.1: % Calibration
Y10 – Audit Score – Outbound Agents
X10.1: Call Backs in call centre
X10.2: Quiz Scores

seesm difficult but logically we can link PMS with six sigma
get down to the customer voice here it would be employee and management
example
– do you have a competency matrix where for each level minimum level threshold of competency is required
for development of individual we need to raise the competency level which will be the CTQ and then we can improve it…
another way of linking PMS is validitity of scoring and feedback 360 degree or whatever is the approach
we even are trying to carry out a green belt project related to dissemination of organization values and seeing their impact in daily behaviors and another project on employee engagements drop in mail at [email protected] if require any further help

we have done something thats called BPMS, business performance management system
it started up with linking every critical metrics of every departmental processes with the top business goals and then linking them to get the dashboards company objective wise
to give an example
– top busines goal is market share
drill down market share is effected by say sales process
its customer acquisition process which is effected by
sales to conversion ration of feet on street, walk in to conversion ratio at the franchisee location, availability of PoP at every retail outlet, % retailers recomending your product as first choice to customer, ability of retailer to explain your product etc
so we assign USL and LSL on all these and then link up to see DPMO of the business objective
hope it helps

post your contact id and i shall provide you with some info as in this discussion thread related to HR projects have seen so many queries getting generated but not concluding in concrete suggestions or objective sharing of info….
for anybody who is interested in this
it just take the start point as customer requirement in all areas of HR to get down to project definitions which i can see most of those HR biggies have not done
