Cost analysis: • Identifying cost types and their amounts • Cost structure analysis • Identifying cost drivers Functional analysis: • Value creation factor for each function • Activities with time apportionment • Cost drivers for each function
• Analysis of key processes and their share of waste • Identification of redundant interfaces • Interface analysis with respect to friction losses • Identification of areas needing process definition
Identification of: • Opportunities for increasing efficiency at workplace and at team level • Optimisation potential through effective time- and self-management, DP and skills training
Goal
• Creating transparency • Eliminating redundant work • Eliminating unused services • Minimising cost drivers • Identifying areas of action

The Seven Success Factors1. Creation of a uniform analysis methodology that is communicated prior to
the project start.!2. Prioritization of projects according to savings potential, speed of
implementation and resource compatibility.!3. Overcoming insular thinking within departments by deploying neutral
consultant.!4. Avoiding time windows that are too small – in practice, everything takes
longer than planned.!5. Training key staff in the lean philosophy.!6. Management providing reinforcement/support for project leaders – lean
is a managerial task.!7. Implementing routine communication protocols and motivating the
employees.

The Management Role in a Change Prozess
❖ A „Lean Administration“ project cannot be implemented successfully without the active support and guidance of the whole management team, as the will for change, particularly in the overhead areas, are less pronounced than in other areas like the production.!
❖ Ongoing communication of project tasks and partial results.!❖ “You must lead by example and demand the lean office philosophy
or the project will fail!”!❖ Management must be a team player and not a power factor or
administrator.
