Evaluate the efficacy of your process using process improvement techniques. Write your evaluation below this line.

The process is easy to understand. It consists of simple steps that can be easily comprehended and executed. To increase operational efficiency, some changes are, however, required. It is possible to enhance customer service while capturing crucial information to make it simple for clients to contact you in an emergency.

Determine how the process can be improved based on the results of your evaluation.

Attendants must adjust how they treat clients to improve the process. Reducing a customer's time at the gate and the facility means preparing for their arrival and being ready to welcome them. Customer information must once more be gathered before checkout. The data must be updated to prevent any difficulties if it has already been collected. This includes information about the client and the pet.

Define metrics and measure the current process. Insert the metrics and measures below this line.

Simply put, metrics are measurements with respect to a process. Both qualitative and quantitative approaches are possible. Three metrics, including cycle time, timeliness, and efficiency, should be tracked during the Wagington Pet boarding procedure. Timeliness refers to whether a process is finished in the anticipated or allotted time. The time required to complete the full process is measured as cycle time. Efficiency is calculated by dividing the production time by the total process duration.
