What would be required for the success of this strategy when rolling out your revised process?

Explain how you would execute this strategy for your selected process. What would be required for the success of this strategy when rolling out your revised process? Part 2: Establishing Baselines To begin, list three metrics that you think can help you quantify the performance of the current process. List and define the metrics clearly, explain why each metric is important in the assessment of the process, and then give an example of the statistic units. For example, if your metric is “speed of processing,” it may be defined by how quickly each employee audits a tax form, and the example would be that “on average, you would expect eight tax forms audited per hour.” If you have already done this in a previous Assignment, you may copy and paste a summary from that Assignment. Then, revisit the metrics you selected for your baseline. For each metric, clearly discuss the following: 1) Describe what the metric is: how is it calculated and used currently? 2) As far as being used as a justifiable project goal, what kind of a change in this metric would constitute success? How did you arrive at this figure? If this target change figure is not possible to estimate now, then describe how you would Kaplan University School of Business MT 400 Unit 8 Assignment compute it if you were actually carrying out this project: who would be involved and where would the data come from? Part 3: Case Analysis Read the following case study and answer the questions at the end. In 2009 it was decided that ABC Tire Company would implement a BPM project with the following goals: ● Decrease the labor cost per tire, and ● Increase profit from each tire sold by 5%. To track the success (or failure) of the project, they determined the following baseline data for 2009: Total # of Tires Sold Material s Cost Per Tire Labo r Cost Per Tire Avera ge Retail Price Per Tire Average Profit Per Tire 22,594 $21.23 $12.67 $119.00 $85.10 After implementing the BPM project, ABC Tire Company reviewed the value of the project after a year and identified the following information: Total # of Tires Sold Total Materials Cost Total Labor Cost Average Retail Price Per Tire 27,669 $533,450.00 $397,555.00 $122.13 Using the data provided above, calculate and fill in the following table (show all your work; completing the table without the calculations will result in no credit): Material s Cost Per Tire Labor Cost Per Tire Averag e Profit Per Tire % Increase or Decrease in Materials Cost Per Tire % Increase or Decrease in Labor Cost Per Tire % Increase or Decrease in Average Profit Per Tire Kaplan University School of Business MT 400 Unit 8 Assignment After the table is complete, address the following questions: 1. Why is it important to ensure that the baseline data is accurate? 2. Was the project successful? Why or why not?
