The QualPro Process
QualPro has constructed a standardized four-phase process that we use to help clients implement MVT® on an organization-wide basis.Phase I: Complete two high-impact MVT® projects with breakthrough results. Phase I proves to senior management and the rest of the organization that the 12-Step MVT® Process will work in that organization. Phase I consists of the completion of two, high-priority MVT® projects that will clearly demonstrate the benefits of the MVT® techniques. Project teams, guided by MVT® consultants, apply the MVT® process to financially significant opportunities. These initial successes pave the way for improvements on a broad scale. Often, the financial benefits from these Phase I projects more than fund the organization-wide MVT® process efforts for the first several years. Phase II: Commit to an organization-wide rollout-a senior management function. Phase II plans the organization-wide rollout of the MVT® process. During Phase II, senior management creates and communicates an action plan that (1) prioritizes MVT® projects to align with corporate objectives, (2) provides appropriate training, resources, and involvement to management, technical, and front-line personnel, and (3) monitors process-improvement activities to ensure that success is rapid and quantifiable. MVT® consultants support Phase II efforts through assessments and executive sessions. Phase III: Execute MVT® projects throughout the organization. Phase III expands the benefits of the MVT® process across the entire organization. MVT® projects are launched to address every major improvement opportunity. The objective is to produce results like those achieved in Phase I and to achieve dramatically improved results in all the organization's priority processes. Often, this broad application of MVT® process-improvement techniques rapidly improves corporate financial performance. Phase IV: Maintain the Gains, Prioritize MVT® Opportunities, and Continuously Improve. Phase IV involves all personnel in maintaining the gains made in Phases I and III while also working to further improve results. As new challenges and opportunities are identified, additional projects are initiated. New hires and promoted personnel are involved appropriately in new or existing MVT® efforts. The need for MVT® consultant involvement decreases as line personnel participate in numerous projects and gain increasing competence in the MVT® process. Corporate financial performance continues to improve, shareholders enjoy an enhanced stock value, and the company's culture is transformed into one never satisfied with the status quo.

Since 1982, QualPro has used Multivariable Testing (MVT®) with 1000+ companies to test 100,000+ improvement ideas. MVT® tests between 20 and 40 ideas simultaneously, accurately predicting the bottom-line impact of potential process changes in as short as 12 weeks. Take existing process initiatives, like Six Sigma, to a whole new level. All process improvement tools and approaches (TQM, DOE, Six Sigma, Re-Engineering, SPC) can be enhanced through the use of Multivariable Testing® by QualPro.
