modelexplained in The Continuous Process Improvement Transformation Guidebook5: Define,Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control, and 2) the ADDIE model used in instructiondesign7: Analyze, Design, Develop, Implement, Evaluate. Both models emphasize adata-driven approach to modifying a process including research into best practices ofother organizations. The DMAIC model emphasizes control of processes and data arecollected in the second step. The ADDIE model emphasizes design of changes and dataare not collected until the end of the process. However, neither model acronymemphasizes the iterative nature of CPI activities and the continuous collection of data andintrospection about the improvement process itself. For this implementation of CPI, bothdata
