IKB, what is it?

In attempting to provide and agile explanation of ISO Kaizen-Blitz^© (IKB^©), is easier done than said - as the President of The Willows Manufacturing Co. Ltd. stated… "It's like trying to explain sex… it's something more done than said, it's difficult to instruct or explain."

IKB^© is a managerial scheme for assisting organisations and institutions in facing global competitiveness and reduction of risk. IKB^© (copyrighted by BULLTEK LTD ) is a twofold scheme; (1) of which resides within the fundamental of Interational Management Systems ISO 9001:ISO 14001:(OHSAS 18001) spiced with "Knowledge Management" and other principles and concepts assisting in competitiveness; (2) one that propitates continual improvement. Both, mutually inclusive or exclusive, pursue advancement in reduction of risk and global competitiveness such that the outcome is tangible. Whilst producing tangible results, IKB ^©is translucent, it's transparent, through improvement propitiating a "win-win-win" ongoing path. IKB^© transposes and permeates into and through an organisation by assisting in shifting from paradigm to paradigm -- IKB^© is palpable in time as it permeates transparently and is dependent on the needs from markets and society et all impacting decision making. Within the realm of the business core (organisation or institution, the enterprise) benefits go beyond purely profitability, it is a discovery process; IKB ^©it is not a "can-product".

Example - our clients have instances or totality of IKB^©and we herein explain a very simplistic occurrence… A shift production supervisor, as part of his team work assignment (process verification and validation) informed… "I used to jump established procedures, now truly understand the importance and consequence of not following these… further, my knowledge is transferred into the procedures thus others can learn...". Such "simplistic" statement concurrent with other instances put into play currently assists an organisation to survive through very rough times (whilst their competitors not surviving) within an inhospitable global region… the outcome is that they have become stronger in a market with less competitors.

IKB^©is expandable change (it can propagate like a virus) it's contagious (as success usually is). After assisting organisations these are left with a more competitively, lower risks and a heightened readiness level to anticipate…

… IKB^©assembles managemet techniques and principles relating to best world class parctices inclusive or mutually exclusive to ISO (International Management Standards). It is important to indicate that within IKB replaces productivity with factorial terms relating to quality and efficiency. Productivity in essence is the resulting (minimum) mathematical-product of efficiency and quality plus integrating aspects for reducing risk (health, environment, safety and financial) within a realm of progressive acquired knowledge.

IKB^© derives from the Japanese concept of Kai and Zen referring to progressive supple improvement (patiently, a virtue that many cultures at times don't posses)...

...and blitz (from the German lightning fast, quantum expansion)... such that...

In the mutually inclusive sense, ISO provides the fundamentals to robustness of the KB formula. Kaizen requires from ISO for robust yet agile continuance. And it does not rely on great investment of resouces, most likely what's there provides what's needed.

Blitz requires ISO to assure that after the storm a robust base remains ascertaining growth (expansive or progressively).

A basic premise of IKB^©applicable to organisations, government and regions… vigilance must be maintained (perhaps through monitoring) over three basic effects thus we can ANTICIPATE or EVEN BE THE GENERATORS of such effects:

(1) Changes in market tendency and behaviour,
(2) Discontinuance of Technology, and
(3) Evolution (or revolution) of regulations.

Thus ascertain that the impact it is favourable...

Once upon a time customers where being satisfied... and it's gone...

Later customer expectations where exceeded... and it's gone...

We now generate and create the needs in the market, prospects, and customers… and it will also be gone…

Thanks IKB^©!

"IKB^© it is discovered with support like ours, it's not packaged "by the dozen" of IKBs… for that IKB ^© knowledge is taken as a basis and as the organisation needs and can absorb it".
