Methodology
Our outstanding results have been achieved by employing our MinervaTM
methodology. Minerva is a four step reengineering process that helps companies
re-design and implement change. Its team approach is tailored to the needs of
each client, and is based on IDEF (Integrated DEFinition), the only modeling
methodology covered by a Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS), the
same concept that guarantees our electric razors will work in all outlets in
the United States. Here's how it works:
Level One: Conduct a Strategic Assessment
List business goals, objectives, a cost/benefits estimate, and an outline of the
overall plan for change.
Level Two: Model and Analyze the "As-Is"
Make a structured model of all of the functions of the client's processes as
they are today. This step shows how business is actually performed and the
detailed steps that are taken to perform them. This also includes an analysis
of the cost of those functions and the opportunities to reduce cost.
Level Three: Model and Analyze the "To-Be"
Develop a new structured model based on all the information gathered that
defines and refines the client's future operations. This model shows how the
business and/or operations should work in the future, once change plans are
implemented.
Level Four: Develop and Execute an Implementation Plan
This results in the design of strategic, financial, and technical plans for
the "To-Be" model which was designed in Level Three. This plan matches the
determined business goals. Opportunities identified in Level One will be tested
against the model developed in Level Three. Level Four also provides detailed
group technology-based analysis of parts and products, equipment lists and
layouts, identified training requirements, and cost/benefit scenarios for
implementation.
