Development of a continuous improvement self-assessment tool |
| abstract |
During the 1990s a growing number of firms have been encouraging continuous improvement (CI) in all aspects of working life, and some impressive results have been achieved. However, the process of implementing CI is long and challenging. Companies need to know what progress they have made, and the outcome of any interventions, in order to consolidate and further develop CI. The CIRCA CI self-assessment tool is a research-based tool which helps users to make an objective assessment of CI in their company. It is designed to be used by any organisation regardless of size, industry, length of time working with CI, and the particular approach taken. The tool went through several phases of development, culminating in a paper-based Version 3.0 in 1997. Since then further development and testing of the tool has taken place in the UK and abroad, and future plans include an electronic version. |

However, the process of implementing CI is long and challenging. Companies need to know what progress they have made, and the outcome of any interventions, in order to consolidate and further develop CI. The CIRCA CI self-assessment tool is a research-based tool which helps users to make an objective assessment of CI in their company. It is designed to be used by any organisation regardless of size, industry, length of time working with CI, and the particular approach taken. The tool went through several phases of development, culminating in a paper-based Version 3.0 in 1997. Since then further development and testing of the tool has taken place in the UK and abroad, and future plans include an electronic version.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="533" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="f">Emerald Fulltext Archive Database 1994-2005</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="4"><subfield code="a">Continuous improvement</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="4"><subfield code="a">Kaizen</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="4"><subfield code="a">Measurement</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="4"><subfield code="a">Self-assessment</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="773" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">In</subfield><subfield code="t">International journal of operations & production management</subfield><subfield code="d">Bingley : Emerald, 1980</subfield><subfield code="g">19(1999), 11, Seite 1138-1153</subfield><subfield code="h">Online-Ressource</subfield><subfield code="w">(DE-627)NLEJ219579180</subfield><subfield code="w">(DE-600)2032083-8</subfield><subfield code="7">nnns</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="773" ind1="1" ind2="8"><subfield code="g">volume:19</subfield><subfield code="g">year:1999</subfield><subfield code="g">number:11</subfield><subfield code="g">pages:1138-1153</subfield><subfield code="g">extent:16</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="856" ind1="4" ind2="0"><subfield code="u">http://dx.doi.org/10.1108/01443579910291050</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="912" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">GBV_USEFLAG_U</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="912" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">ZDB-1-EFD</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="912" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">GBV_NL_ARTICLE</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="951" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">AR</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="952" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="d">19</subfield><subfield code="j">1999</subfield><subfield code="e">11</subfield><subfield code="h">1138-1153</subfield><subfield code="g">16</subfield></datafield></record></collection>
