E23: Calculating Financial Benefits for Improvement Projects - Lean Portland Happy Hour - July 2022
Description
After making improvements to your processes, a best practice is to calculate the benefits to the organization. Calculating financial benefits is an important part of building momentum for improvement with upper management. However, this can be confusing for those not familiar with financial data, and is not done very often in organizations.
Brion Hurley will discuss commonly used methods for capturing financial impacts of process improvement work.
The 5 categories are:
• Income Statement
• Cash Flow
• Growth
• Avoidance
• Soft Savings
We will define each category, go through a few examples, and go through a practice exercise as a group.
