Slide 13 www.jit-technologies.com FINDINGS
15
We found the process to be manual, inefficient and paper intensive
16
Research and Assignment is NVA and uses automated queuing poorly Open all transactions to get info that is not displayed in the list Balance work across 23 processors 1 claim at a time using tally sheets QA is a duplication of the 1 st step performed by the processors Open all transactions, though only manual transactions are fixed
17
Of about 13 min spent in claim processing, 20% of time (2.4 min) is spent making claim decisions Verify transaction information Investigate & Decide Look up on Mainframe or Other system Look up on Mainframe or Other system Re-Key & QA data Re-Key & QA data Sort, Copy, Transport Sort, Copy, Transport Create 1200 new pieces of paper/day
18
Support staff & others off-load much of the non- value added work from claim processors Look up on Mainframe or Other system Look up on Mainframe or Other system Copy, Fax, Scan, Sort, Transport Copy, Fax, Scan, Sort, Transport Re-Key & QA data Re-Key & QA data
19
Slide 18 www.jit-technologies.com Much of the team is support staff; Of claim processor effort, most is non-value add Support Staff (23) Claim Processors (29) non-value add non-value add value-add value-add 20% = 2.4 Min 80% 24 Minutes of Processing
20
Benchmark KPIs Indicate Room for Improvement Reducing process inefficiencies could free up 45% of process time= 35,000 hours annually or $875K Cycle Time is 60% over goal Error Rate is 5X benchmark

Slide 49 www.jit-technologies.com Metric Definitions Volume = Output, usually expressed in units or $’s Productivity = Output per unit of time Cycle Time = Time spent in process = Work Time + Wait Time = WIP/Exits where WIP is the total units being worked or in the process Quality = Error rate = Errors/Output usually expressed as a % or sigma value. 6σ = 0.0003% errors Efficiency = Productive time divided by total time expressed as a %. Can be a measure of cycle time or work time. Efficiency (CT) = value added work time/total cycle time Efficiency (Work) = value added work time/total work time Value Added Time = time spent producing customer valued output without waste ~ straight through processing time (STP)

Slide 52 www.jit-technologies.com Financial Definitions ROI: Return on Investment is the ratio of money gained or lost on an investment relative to the amount of money invested usually expressed as a percentage. ROI=(benefit/cost) NPV: Net Present Value is a standard method for using the time value of money to appraise long-term projects. It measures the excess or shortfall of cash flows, in present value terms, once financing charges are met. IRR: rate of return used to measure and compare the profitability of investments, also called the effective interest rate. Payback Period: refers to the period of time required for the return on an investment to "repay" the sum of the original investment.

Slide 55 www.jit-technologies.com Identify Which Benefit Strategies Apply Benefit Strategy Matrix outlines strategies for generating benefits Helps Remind of strategies Identify when they apply Group for quantifying return May be customized for special opportunities TypeBenefit StrategyExample Targeting Questions Increase Productivity 1.Use fewer resources to reach desired objectives What business processes are paper intensive, (eg: Ordering, HR on-boarding, and correspondence management)? Are there areas that cannot scale without added headcount or expense? Have workarounds been implemented to compensate for inadequate systems? Are there complex or error prone processes that can be better supported? Improve Coordination 2.Reduce time and effort to complete work that requires multiple people, skills or applications Do individuals have to use multiple software applications to complete process steps or update multiple applications with the same or similar data? Do teams need to work collaboratively, coordinate activities, or gain expertise quickly? Are there multiple capture mechanisms, sales channels or service channels that need to be coordinated? Are there areas where work spans multiple organizations?

65
Slide 64 www.jit-technologies.com Qualitative Impacts – Not Fully Captured in ROI Model Customer Satisfaction: Better delivery leads to tighter cooperation with customers & preferred partners Inefficiencies: The distribution centers have less disruption from normal operations to meet exceptions and expediting requirements Fewer inventory imbalances that lead to delayed orders and forecasting problems Better planning due to accurate information Fewer returns processing Billing can happen earlier leading to less carrying costs and more interest Brand identity and competitive advantage Poor performance no longer erodes Company’s image Prevent market share lost due to customer defections and returns from missed delivery commitments Operations is happier
66
Slide 65 www.jit-technologies.com Verify assumptions before presenting results Re-engineering your process using BPM will result in a yearly savings of $439,000 per year In less than 9 months the solution will have paid for itself The solution has a Net Present Value of $1,650,000
67
Slide 66 www.jit-technologies.com Other Considerations Tell a compelling value story Requires commitment from both sides Engage customer to create ownership for the assessment Put benefits in terms they understand “Reduce costs to recover from errors” -vs- “Eliminate firefighting and excessive expediting” Some soft benefits will not be fully quantifiable – that’s OK Make all assumptions explicit Models may not anticipate all special cases - may need enhancement

Slide 72 www.jit-technologies.com THE (NOT SO FAR OFF) FUTURE OF BPM The Business Value of BPM
74
Slide 73 www.jit-technologies.com The value of BPM grows in the future: By 2012, 20 per cent of customer-facing processes will be knowledge-adaptable and assembled just in time to meet the demands and preferences of each customer, assisted by BPM technologies. By 2013, dynamic BPM will be an imperative for companies seeking process efficiencies in increasingly chaotic environments. Through 2014, the act of composition will be a stronger opportunity to deliver value from software than the act of development. By 2014, business process networks (BPNs) will underpin 35 per cent of new multi-enterprise integration projects. By 2014, 40 per cent of business managers and knowledge workers in Global 2000 enterprises will use comprehensive business process models to support their daily work, up from 6 per cent in 2009.
