ANALYZEANALYZECAUSE & EFFECT
#1 Cause: Delay in Receiving Documents
Analysis:1. Need to increase staff awareness on importance of receiving
shipping documents early.
2. Apart from the Staff Information Handbook, staff needs to access important shipping information while still at origin which may be relayed directly and accurately to the origin mover.

ANALYZEANALYZECAUSE & EFFECT
#2 Cause: Delay at the DOF
Analysis:1. Need to coordinate with the DOF for an alternate signatory in
case of absence of main signatory.2. Need to strictly monitor the approval dates of 2nd Endorsements
by the DOF.3. Need to strictly monitor the clearance performance of broker
based on the approval of 2nd endorsement by the DOF.

Proposed SolutionsIMPROVEIMPROVE
1. Provide staff, while still at origin, with vital information containingshipping instructions which can be handed over to the origin agent.
Shipping Instructions – for origin agent (ITOM)Commencement: Since 01 June 2005
2. Monitoring sheet to include additional dates for: Receipt of shipping documents Approval of 2nd Endorsement by DOFCommencement: Since 01 June 2005
3. Coordinate with brokers to submit copies of approved DOF 2nd endorsements.Commencement: Since 01 June 2005

CONTROLCONTROL Project Implementation
• From 1 June 2005, all new staff with signed offer letters were sent the ITOM by e-mail
• To date, only 10 shipments have arrived and cleared thru Customs
• Data sample size for this review = 10

CONTROLCONTROLBenefits
• With the implementation of proposed solutions, total processing time was reduced from an average of 8.58 days to 6.40 days or a reduction of 25.41% in clearance time.
• Process Sigma improved from 2.37 to 4.10.
![Page 50: DEFINE](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070401/56813605550346895d9d7b7d/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)

Soft Savings
Soft Savings – 25.41% reduction in clearance time results in:
•Savings in storage and demurrage costs of US$1,542.00 per year for shipments processed within 7 days or faster.
•Increased customer satisfaction – staff will be able to settle down faster and concentrate on work.
• Savings in staff time previously spent on correcting errors in documentation, explaining delays to staff, arguing with agents, etc., may be diverted to more profitable work.
•Enhanced relationship with agents due to clear guidelines and instructions received from ADB

Lessons Learned
1. While the Six Sigma approach is a powerful tool, having relevant data is important in analyzing and making decisions.
2. Critical thinking is important in deciding on a problem and which methods to apply.
3. Buy-in from the members of a project is important; and open communication, teamwork and ownership is the way to achieve this.
4. We have proven to ourselves that it is possible to further improve a process perceived as ‘maximized’.
