Solutions and satisfaction come from process improvement
AIDT Process Improvement Assessment improves the quality of products and services and the satisfaction of employees and customers through assessing what is done, how it is done and finding what causes problems. This service is part of AIDT Continuous Improvement Team Service available to Alabama employers. AIDT Process Improvement Assessment, provided at no cost, is designed to examine and analyze processes to identify improvement opportunities and training needs. After assessment and analysis, the AIDT team provides a report that includes positive comments, negative comments and suggestions. AIDT training is available to show employees what improvements are needed and how they can be made. To schedule process improvement assessment for your company, contact AIDT CI Team Manager Jim Richards at 334-280-4428 or by email jrichards@aidt.edu.
