Lean Thinking
• Viewing the organisation or the service as a system
• And from a customer perspective:
– Define purpose and value
– Understand demand
– Measure performance of the system
– Understand and act on variation
– Manage the system – not the people
– Improve the system by designing against demand
– Introduce single piece flow – move away from batching and
queueing
– Identify and work on system constraints, where possible

Results - Housing
Presentation
Repairs
• End-to-end time was reduced on average from 46 days to 5.9 days.
• Customer satisfaction following a repair shows that 61% of tenants score the
service
• 10/10 with a total of 90% scoring 8/10 or above. This compares to the latest
STATUS survey, where 77% of tenants had rated the service above average.
• Potential six-figure efficiency gains.
Rent collection
• For new tenants, first payment on the account was reduced from
• an average of 34 days to 20 days.
• Only 18% of new tenants falling into arrears compared to 43%
• previously.
Re-housing
• 64 steps in the process reduced to 32 steps.
• Reduced void relet time of 50 days to an average of 25 days. The potential
reduced void loss as a consequence estimated in excess of £90,000.

Other successes
• Senior managers had not been aware of the degree of waste in
the system prior to the systems thinking review. In all three pilots,
the work has been generally well received and supported by
senior managers.
Presentation
Costs
• Costs fall as waste is taken out:
– Only the value work is done – non-value adding work is
minimised or eliminated
– Failure demand is reduced or eliminated (40%)
– The improvement-led approach leads to greater savings than
cost-centred approach – hard for the FD to get their heads
around!
