In today's economy, you need every edge you can get. You need to maximize the production of each and every one of your staff and yourself. If you are only reviewing statistics at the end of the week, then you are missing a vital tool that could dramatically help you increase your company's production.
How? By implementing and using the Quota feature in the Management by Statistics software. Here’s how it works:
Each day you have your individual employees (or managers) input their daily production. By setting up a weekly quota graph, you can review how production is going at the end of your day and see if everything in on track to meet your expectations. If production is lagging behind, you can take the actions necessary to correct the situation before the end of the week.
