Yield tremendous cost savings from budget overruns (an
estimate of 8-10% is projected at its most conservative) |
» |
Cost and reputation savings through improved quality
of initiatives as focus is explicitly placed on best practices processes
compliance and early intervention of critical-to-quality (CTQ) issues
(savings from early rework and defect prevention: experts have put
quality-related costs as x8 times the implementation costs)
|
» |
Provide framework to make things happen in an
organization with early warning and escalation process (80% of management time
is spent in communications, so TS adds tremendous value in communicating
