8 ATTACHMENT A INSTRUCTIONS: Please return your completed DMAIC Storyboard, along with your Process Control System (both flow chart and indicator information) and your completed Action Plan (see Improve checkpoint #10), via to rseemer@etsfl.com and copy Steve Muzzy on all s. Thank you, Bob Seemer, President & COO, Electronic Training Solutions, Inc. Priority Process Name: Work System / Leader: DEFINE PLANT OPERATION & MAINTENANCE WALT PETTERS DMAIC Lite Storyboard 1. Describe how the linkage between the process Q measures and the District s KPIs (or strategic objective measures) was established and confirmed. In order to meet 2008/2009 Strategic Plan (KPI) to be ranked first in Florida in the percentage of classroom and school spending and last in district administration and Improve and maintain control of fixed assets at all worksites by school year, Plant Operations and Maintenance (PO&M) has deployed a computerized maintenance management system. This system monitors and collects district-wide plant operating data and creates reports. In light of need to improve PO&M efficiencies and reduce operating costs, seven (7) Q measures have been developed to collect data that can be monitored and evaluated on a pre-determined basis. Q1. Operational Cost Per GSF (Annual) Q2. Maintenance Cost Per GSF (Annual) Q3. Total O&M Cost Per GSF (Annual) Q4. PM and W.O Activity Per Year Q5. Work Order Backlog Per Year Q6. PM / Service W/O Ratio Q7. PO&M / Facility Generated W/O Ratio 2. Explain which process Q measure(s) will be improved. In order to identify the Q measure(s) that should be focused on for improvement efforts, a Facilities PO&M Priority Process Selection Matrix and a Key In-Process Measures Determination Form were created (see Pages 7 and 8). It was determined that key process Processing Work Orders was in need of improvement. After a preliminary process analysis of the number of work orders opened / closed per month, preventative maintenance work orders to routine and the number of backlogged work orders per month, it was noted that Q measures Q4, Q5, Q6 and Q7 would be affected and improved. By improving work order processing, Q measures Q4, Q5, Q6, and Q7 would be improved thus resulting in an overall improvement of OP&M service. 3. Develop a theme statement which will focus your process improvement efforts. The theme statement must be consistent with the measure in checkpoint #2, above. Repair center routine aging work orders (backlog) have increased during the time period between July to October 2008 from the same period in See chart. ets, Inc. / CTi Page 1

9 MEASURE DMAIC Lite Storyboard ATTACHMENT A 4. List up to five (5) potential problem areas in this process and the associated P measure(s) for each. Reduced PO&M and Capital budgets and Staffing restrictions. (P9) (P10) New added facilities constructed. Routine work order backlog increases because of continuous aging of buildings and equipment. (P3) (P4) (P5) Self generated work orders and / or PM activity backlogs increase because if increase in routine work orders. (P2) (P4) (P5) Increased use of our District and School facilities by outside occupants. Increased expanded use of facilities by District and Schools. 5. Select the most significant problem or opportunity and develop a problem statement which answers the questions: What? When? Gap between actual and targeted values? Problem: The same-month aging work orders for August 07& 08 through October 07 & 08 is 17,640 and 18,104 respectively. The same-month aging work orders for the period of August through October 2008/2009 school year is increasing. Problem Statement: As a result of the economic environment in Florida and Brevard County, the amount available total funds (revenues) coming into the Brevard Public School District has decreased $27.0M between school fiscal years 06/07 and 07/08 and $190.74M between fiscal years 07/08 and 08/08. This decrease in revenues has caused the operating budget between 06/07 and 07/08 to increase by $30.19M and drop by $20.46M between 07/08 and 08/09. This loss of operating funds, for the 08/09 school year, caused a freeze on staffing and a reduction of all vacant maintenance positions. From January to July 2008 the backlog of aged work orders dropped from 6042 to 4273 respectively. Starting in August the backlog of aged work orders climbed to 5,755, 6,154 in September and 6,195 in October. This upward trend is caused by the decrease in school district operating funds, the addition new facilities, and the aging of existing facilities and equipment without the addition of more resources. See aging work order, PO&M staffing and overtime charts. Gap: The gap between the amount of same-month aging work orders for August 07& 08 through October 07 & 08 is 17,640 and 18,104 respectively. There is a backlog gap of 464 between same-month repair center backlogs and it is increasing by an average of 641 per month. ets, Inc. / CTi Page 2

10 ATTACHMENT A DMAIC Lite Storyboard ANALYZE 6. List up to five (5) potential causes of the selected problem from checkpoint #5 in the Measure step. A. Reduced operating budget B. Reduced staffing C. Reduced use of overtime. D. Reduced or elimination of filling vacant positions E. Increased service-call cycle time. F. Replacement equipment and parts availability. 7. List the root causes and describe the approach used to select them from among the others. Root Causes Approach Used To Select Root Cause A. Declining State Funding Operating & Capital Budget Reports B. Reduced PO&M Budget Operating & Capital Budget Reports C. Reduced PO&M Budget Operating & Capital Budget Reports D. Reduced PO&M Budget Operating & Capital Budget Reports E. Lack of service call time standards Work Order Tracking & Reporting System F. Equipment and parts purchasing cycle time Work Order Tracking & Reporting System ets, Inc. / CTi Page 3

11 IMPROVE DMAIC Lite Storyboard ATTACHMENT A 8. List the countermeasure(s) you considered for implementation for each selected root cause from the Analyze steps A D. A. The PO&M department has no control over the amount of the annual budget. The department has control over how the budget is spread over department activities. If funding shortfalls continue the 2 nd half of 2008/ 2009 and 2009 / 2010 school years, then the budget allocation may have to be allocated to critical operation and maintenance functions. In addition to shifting budget to high priority process, use the DMAIC process to improve the cycle time and reduce waste of each repair center. As a last resort, move staff from less-important processes to repair center teams. If that does not work, request that more funding be shifted from other operations accounts to plant operations and maintenance and remove the hiring freeze and lift the restrictions for the use of over time. B. Develop service standards for completing work orders based upon health and safety priorities. Train, council and / or terminate PO&M employees. C. Analyze history of work order types and repair center activities. Analyze work order process flow to reduce work order processing cycle times. D. Work with Purchasing department to reduce the time it takes to purchase equipment and parts. 9. Determine the effectiveness x feasibility score for each countermeasure, and note the highest scores. See attached countermeasure matrix. Root Cause Effectiveness Feasibility Overall Action A Yes B Yes C Yes (Hint: Refer to six sigma DMAIC course, checkpoint #18 of the Improve step.) 10. Develop an action plan for each countermeasure to be implemented which shows the following: What (description of countermeasure) When (projected start and end dates) Who (accountable person) Which organizations need to support you Estimated cost to implement See attached countermeasure action plan matrix and action plans. (Remember: your action plan(s) with this completed DMAIC Lite Storyboard, per instructions on page 1.) ets, Inc. / CTi Page 4

12 CONTROL DMAIC Lite Storyboard ATTACHMENT A 11. Briefly explain how you know the root causes were reduced or eliminated. Cannot reduce or eliminate budget shortfalls because the budget is controlled by the District. One will know that the root causes have been reduced or eliminated when a plan has been developed to redeploy maintenance staff to high priority health and safety work orders, a service standard is published, and the purchasing cycle time improvement project is complete. 12. Briefly explain how you know the problem was reduced. When the number of backlog work orders per month shows a downward trend over a three month period. 13. Briefly explain how you know the theme measure was improved. When the number of backlog work orders per month shows a downward trend over a three month period. 14. Explain how you will prevent this problem from recurring. Consistently monitor monthly backlog reports and re-deploy maintenance staff as soon as possible. 15. Identify which other BPS locations should consider implementing your countermeasures. The countermeasures used in this project are being applied to all types of work orders. 16. Identify what other BPS locations could learn from this project. N/A 17. List the remaining problem areas in this process. Reduced budgets and resources are a problem. 18. List the key lessons learned from this process improvement. To develop a flexible maintenance organization that can be easily re-organized to meet an ever changing budgetary ets, Inc. / CTi Page 5

Yes: X No: Rating: 5 Comment: Three countermeasures were developed to address the six root causes listed in Macro DMAIC Storyboard. Because three of the root causes involved BPS district funding of plant operations and maintenance, a countermeasure was not developed. The following are the three countermeasures that were selected. 1. Develop service standards for completing work orders based upon health and safety priorities. Train, council and / or terminate PO&M employees. 2. Analyze history of work order types and repair center activities. Analyze work order process flow to reduce work order processing cycle times. 3. Work with Purchasing department to reduce the time it takes to purchase equipment and parts. The countermeasure for reducing the time to purchase equipment and parts is six sigma project being conducted by the Purchasing department. A countermeasure matrix was developed. See Macro Storyboard package. 11. The method for selecting the appropriate practical methods was clear and considered effectiveness and feasibility. Yes: X No: Rating: 5 Comment: An effectiveness and feasibility matrix was used to select which countermeasures to deploy. Practical methods were developed for each counter measure by using a brainstorming session. See Macro Storyboard package for effectiveness and feasibility matrix. IMPROVE 12.

Yes: X No: Rating: 5 Comment: There are no remaining problems associated with the theme. Aging work orders are reviewed each month of all nine repair centers. Corrective and preventative actions are taken when negative trends are noted. See PO&M Monthly Overview report. CONTROL 20. [Future Plans] Lessons learned, P-D-C-A of the ets Six Sigma DMAIC Method, and team growth were assessed and documented. Yes: X No: Rating: 4 Comment: The problem solving activity to improve the theme occurred over numerous brainstorming and data analysis sessions. Data was examined from varying view points to understand the problem and gap. Lessons learned were discussed but not documented. The PO&M operation uses a Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) to schedule and track maintenance activities. Data can be collected at all levels of the maintenance cycle. Currently PO&M is working with TMA Systems to modify the CMMS to drill down the data collection to give the system uses more drop-down window choices when entering maintenance data. The monthly maintenance overview report is distributed to all Facilities managers and school district administrators. The report is a useful tool to identify problem trends and to inform stakeholders about maintenance activities that affect this school site or facilities infrastructure.
