OPTIMIZING BUSINESS OPERATIONAL ENVIRONMENTS

摘要

Methods and systems are provided to optimize business value by providing and/or implementing business solutions, e.g., solutions to improve operational environments. A method is implemented in a computer infrastructure which has computer executable code tangibly embodied on a computer readable storage medium having programming instructions operable to: provide an initial assessment of business operations, using a framework based on lean capabilities and lean components, as well as at least one of business and environmental constraints; determine a need for improvement based on scores provided in the initial assessment; and provide a complete assessment using business drivers and specifications of a solution to identify areas for improvement of business operations.
