THE DANAHER
BUSINESS SYSTEM
In
the mid-1980s, a Danaher division faced with intensifying competition
launched an improvement effort based on the then-new principles
of lean manufacturing. The initiative succeeded beyond anyone's
expectations - reinforcing the division's industry leadership as
well as spawning the Danaher Business System (DBS). Since this modest
beginning, DBS has evolved from a collection of manufacturing improvement
tools into a philosophy, set of values, and series of management
processes that collectively define who we are and how we do what
we do.
Fueled by Danaher's
core values, the DBS engine drives the company through a never-ending
cycle of change and improvement: exceptional people develop outstanding
plans and execute them using world-class tools to construct sustainable
processes, resulting in superior performance. Superior performance
and high expectations attract exceptional people, who continue the
cycle. Guiding all efforts is a simple philosophy rooted in four
customer-facing priorities: Quality, Delivery, Cost, and Innovation.
