Continuous Improvement (CI) jest dobrze znaną koncepcją w literaturze i praktyce zarządzania, i jest uważana za niezbędną w dzisiejszym środowisku biznesowym. Artykuł zawiera omówienie wyników badania przeprowadzonego z zastosowaniem modelu dojrzałości Continuous Improvement w aspekcie oceny liniowości procesu wdrażania kluczowych zachowań CI. W badaniach zastosowano pięciostopniowy model dojrzałości CI, w celu weryfikacji jego przydatności w ocenie poziomu realizacji kluczowych zachowań tej koncepcji w przedsiębiorstwie produkcyjnym, jak i w celu zbadania charakteru przebiegu tego procesu. W pierwszej części artykułu zaprezentowano wnioski wynikające z analizy literatury dotyczącej modelu dojrzałości, a następnie przedstawiono wyniki badań empirycznych zrealizowanych w dużym przedsiębiorstwie produkcyjnym. Na tej podstawie przeprowadzono dyskusję dotyczącą odpowiedzi na postawione pytania badawcze. Potwierdzono przydatność modelu w ocenie poziomu dojrzałości, jak i zwrócono uwagę na nieliniowy charakter procesu rozwoju kluczowych zachowań CI wdrażanych w przedsiębiorstwie. Podczas gdy model sugeruje, że rozwój dojrzałości CI powinien być procesem liniowym, wyniki badania wskazują, że istnieją realne alternatywy dla przedsiębiorstw, aby rozwijać zdolność do ciągłego doskonalenia.

There is a lack of broad participation in most idea generating programs in American organizations. In this paper, we consider ways to increase the participation rate in generating ideas across organizations. These approaches include measuring innovation rates and reporting them, encouraging continuous improvement in idea generation, raising participation in programs such as Business Process Reengineering and Quality Circles, and training in creativity that includes team efforts at ideation. We also consider the importance of encouragement in helping employees to take the risks necessary to generate ideas.

Quality control becomes an important key for companies in suppressing the number of defective produced products. Six Sigma is a quality control method that aims to minimize defective products to the lowest point or achieve operational performance with a sigma value of 6 with only yielding 3.4 defective products of 1 million product. Stages of Six Sigma method starts from the DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control) stages that help the company in improving quality and continuous improvement. Based on the results of research on baby clothes products, data in March 2018 the percentage of defective products produced reached 1.4% exceeding 1% tolerance limit, with a Sigma value of 4.14 meaning a possible defect product of 4033.39 opportunities per million products. In the pareto diagram there were 5 types of CTQ (Critical to Quality) such as oblique obras, blobor screen printing, there is a fabric / head cloth code on the final product, hollow fabric / thin fabric fiber, and dirty cloth. The factors caused quality problems such as Manpower, Materials, Environtment, and Machine. Suggestion for consideration of company improvement was continuous improvement on every existing quality problem like in Manpower factor namely improving comprehension, awareness of employees in producing quality product and improve employee's accuracy, Strength Quality Control and give break time. Materials by making the method of cutting the fabric head, the Machine by scheduling machine maintenance and the provision of needle containers at each employees desk sewing and better environtment by installing exhaust fan and renovating the production room.
