improvement
- Identifies segments of the value stream where performance is poor;
areas that warrant a more detailed examination of operations.
- Provides baseline measures for ongoing Lean and quality process
improvements
- Quantifies potential for improvement upon implementation of Lean
strategies.

About
Performance Insight™ Benchmarking:
"The organization and
clarity of the data allows us to quickly identify improvement
opportunities at each step of the process from test order to result
verification. For too long, the lab has only had data to focus on
in-lab performance. With enhanced focus on quality in health care,
the lab needs to take the lead on multi-disciplinary quality
improvement projects that look at the entire process."
