Rapid Performance Improvement (RPI)

RPI Method Description

RPI is performed as an iterative series of four phases, which comprise all the activities necessary to scope the improvement efforts, map current practices, identify gaps for improvement, prioritise and select improvements, model the revised process, and plan and deploy the process changes. The entire cycle of phases are conducted in a short period of time (preferrably less than three months).

For more information on a specific phase of the method, click on the phase area in the graphic below.
