Notice Title

Cancer Network Suspected Cancer Pathway (SCP) Improvement Project

Notice Description

Improvement Cymru wish to deliver a project which uses the lean foundations of the Toyota Production System (TPS), or an equivalent model using the same methodologies as the TPS, to deliver improvements in the first 28 days of the patient journey in three NHS Wales Suspected Cancer Pathways. We have tested the TPS model with the NHS Wales Cancer community via training (including real life observations to consolidate learning) and learner evaluation has been overwhelmingly positive. As a result, we now wish to extend use of this model, or an equivalent model using the same methodologies as the TPS and test it with three Multi-Disciplinary Teams (MDT) to determine its usefulness in delivering improvements in practice which reduce variation and increase reliability. A key consideration of any partner will be the ability to adapt learning to cater for an NHS organisation and clinical settings - including outpatients and diagnostic services. We are seeking an expert external partner (preferably an industrial or private sector organisation that uses TPS or an equivalent model to underpin its manufacturing) to support this project. This partner must demonstrate that the TPS/equivalent model underpins the culture of the organisation, and thus will be driven by recognised expertise and practical experience in delivering improvements. The organisation must be able to teach and train the TPS/equivalent model methodology, along with the ability to illustrate the TPS/equivalent model concepts using practical real-time/shop floor learning observations, alongside classroom teaching of these concepts
