Aligned Vendor Relationship Review
A key principle of measurement and education in an aligned facility maintenance department is that there is no "we have arrived" moment. PUR-O-ZONE customers working within an Alignment Process must review the process periodically for continual improvement. For that reason, the Aligned Vendor Relationship Review helps you see where you have come in the last time period and helps your PUR-O-ZONE team assist you in planning for the upcoming period.
Your ducks need continuous attention to keep them in line once you get them there.
What gets measured gets done. Alignment is a continuing cycle that provides a more efficient, productive and leaner staff.
Here is an example of how a staff can look 24 months after deep budget, wage and benefit cuts brought on by choices like outsourcing. The problem becomes that for short-term and intangible "overhead reduction" gains, turnover balloons, your best people leave, and there are not enough staff members left above the line to be successful.
This is how a custodial staff might look 24 months after beginning Alignment Process. Alignment works to help more of your staff get over the line so that fewer people can do more and better work. This is where real, tangible savings kick in.
