In November 2018 the Ecosystem Coordination Board (ECB) agreed that developing "kaizen" mechanisms in Puget Sound recovery could be useful for improving how we do ecosystem management, and that the "coordination community" would be the right workforce for designing this kind of effort, and understanding if new capacity is required. We have formed a temporary volunteer workgroup from within the "coordination community", staffed by NOAA Restoration Center. This workgroup has a plan to rapidly stand up a rudimentary but functioning continuous improvement process. We envision a four step approach:
Our assumption is that continuous improvement of the Ecosystem Recovery System is not really optional--all business models are likely to benefit from some kind of kaizen--our systems are particularly cumbersome. We will test Steps 1 and 2 of the above proposed system in the Summer and Fall of 2019. We will bring our improvement proposals and system designs back to the ECB and affected institutions in winter, and aim to work on steps 3 and 4 through the 2020 project development season.
