Student Project Operations Improvement Plan

Prepare a typewritten project paper describing your plan to improve the process (TASK) you currently work in (Childcare Director), presented with Problem Statement and Flowcharts. This plan should identify and explain in details of the process, including graphical representations and flowcharts.

This paper must be a coherent unification of operation management, and quality processes quantifying the magnitude of the anticipated improvement, e.g., quantifiable cycle time reductions, inventory cost reductions.reduction of labor cost or a significant differentiation of product/services.

Data depicting the results of the process improvement is required. You should be able to produce data, and present a data analysis that will be the basis for your recommendations. If data is not available, (you can build data on an assumption basis) outline how such data could be obtained, what the data might be expected to reveal, and how you would evaluate the success of the improvement project. In either case, be sure to provide a detailed explanation of how you arrived at your conclusions and recommendations. Minimum 20-30 pages.
