PDL’s process improvement, design and management roots go back to Geary Rummler’s pioneering process work for Motorola and GTE in the early 1980’s. With the publication of Improving Performance – How to Manage the White Space on the Organization Chart, in 1990, the Rummler-Brache process improvement and design methodology became the standard for such organizations as Hewlett-Packard, Motorola, Chevron, ABB and DuPont. With the formation of Performance Design Lab in 1999, Geary Rummler and his partners have endeavored to take the methodology to another level with a particular focus on process management and the linkages to value chain and enterprise management, Business Process Architecture, and IT alignment. Over the past 20 years, PDL partners have been involved in the improvement of hundreds of critical processes for dozens of Fortune 500 companies. Geary Rummler is currently the chair of Brainstorm’s Organizational Alignment & Performance Symposium Series, working to bridge the alignment gap between IT and business. Process Improvement and Management Today More and more, the mantle of Process Improvement has shifted to the IT function due to the automation of many of the organization’s processes. IT organizations are struggling with moving from their traditional project approach to a more process based approach – one that will lead to more successful and aligned IT solutions. Our Methodology The Rummler Process Methodology spans the seven phases of a project – Align, Analyze, Design, Commit, Build, Enable and Adopt - and the five dimensions of design - Process Design, Performer: Human Design, Performer: Information Technology Design, Process Management Design, and Change Management Design - and has built in the critical success factors that Dr. Geary Rummler and his partners have learned in over 40 years of improving processes.
