  7. Steps in the ABM process • Activity analysis • Value-adding? • Customer’s viewpoint • Necessary evil • Non-value-adding • Cost

  8. Steps in the ABM process • Identify opportunities for improvement • Low value-adding • Willie Sutton rule • Identify the root cause of the problem • “The 5 why’s” • Fix the problem, not treat the symptoms

  9. Steps in the ABM process • Estimate cost and cost savings • What will the changes cost? • How much will they save? • Make the changes • Evaluate results • Are expected results achieved? • Repeat the process
