Activity Elimination

• Activity elimination is a technique used to streamline business processes by removing unnecessary or non-value-adding activities.

  • In a force-fit exercise, each activity in the business process is examined to determine whether it is essential to achieving the desired outcomes.

  • Activities that do not contribute meaningfully to the process or outcome can be eliminated or combined with other activities.

  • Steps:

    1. List all the activities involved in the process.
    2. Evaluate each activity’s contribution to the overall goal.
    3. Eliminate or modify activities that are redundant, inefficient, or non-essential.

Benefits:

• Reduces waste by removing unnecessary steps.
• Streamlines the process, leading to faster execution and lower costs.
• Improves overall process efficiency by focusing only on value-adding activities.
