Network Centric SystemsSelecting Core Competencies

Where should we invest our limited resources to develop capabilities that will become our core competencies in the future?

Ask yourself:• Which subcomponents will have the highest barriers to entry in the

future?

• Which will demand the highest profit margins in the future?

• Which subcomponents will drive customer purchasing behavior in the future?

• Which subcomponents are we good at producing today?

Raytheon Six SigmaTM is a knowledge based process we will use to transform our culture, maximize customer value and enable business growth.

Raytheon Six Sigma™ versus Traditional Six Sigma

• The traditional Six Sigma approach, utilized by Motorola, has its underpinnings in hardware design and manufacturing

• The Raytheon Six SigmaTM approach was based on benchmarking with Allied Signal and General Electric and is more broad in scope:– Includes all processes and

functions

– Integrates proven philosophies and a number of continuous improvement techniques and tools

(statistical & lean tools)

– Supported by a full time Six Sigma Expert network

– Leads to a culture change

Network Centric SystemsSBO Background Info

What is Supply Base Optimization ?

• A data led, systematic approach to identifying a cross-functionally endorsed list of suppliers within a

given commodity family

• Stratification within a specific commodity family that identifies (1) approved suppliers, (2) preferred

suppliers and (3) strategic suppliers

• A dynamic commodity strategy for each commodity family which forces continuous optimization of the

supply base, through the utilization of cross-functional subject matter experts (Eng, Quality, SCM, PL,

etc.)

• A Disciplined Governance process for list maintenance and standardized use of the SBO outputs

Network Centric SystemsR6with Suppliers

R6s with Suppliers is a targeted effort examining total cost of ownership for a part or service focussed on maximizing cost reduction while minimizing investment. Features:

• Widely proven methodology

• Uses a gated flow making investment incremental

• Leverages upon the large pool of R6s tool or technical expert

resources as appropriate

• Standard templates drive consistency

• Purpose: Recommended for initial general evaluation of potential suppliers. It provides a quick look at the viability of a candidate or it allows the comparison and prioritization of multiple candidates

• Minimal product and supplier knowledge is required

• Normally filled out by SCM personnel (MPM, Buyers), or interested IPT members

Output is radar chart• that provide a graphical representation of supplier candidacy

•Identifies risk areas to R6sS success

•Numerical score to be used as a comparative

• ROI is total impact of the project, and is expressed in multiples of investment

• Total impact includes gap closure, cost avoidance and cost savings

Page 40: Steve Case Supplier Relations and Productivity Expert     October 2006

Network Centric SystemsSuccess Factors

• Carefully select company core competencies

• Identify and manage critical supplier relationships

• Select strategic suppliers for engagements– Spend time up front to collect the essential data that no one

person has

– Target both immediate and long-term results

– Use gated process that spends investment money incrementally

– Ensure customer involvement

– Gain top executive support for process and pull for results

Network Centric SystemsBack-up

• Supplier Relationships and Supplier Performance back-up materials

Page 42: Steve Case Supplier Relations and Productivity Expert     October 2006

Network Centric SystemsSuccess Factors

• Dollarize potential impact before engaging management

• Align multiple departments - both functional and product related

• Communicate clear, structured methodology and roadmap during initial kickoff and revisit often

• Spend time up front to collect the essential data that no one has

• Offer up data to the supplier, don’t just demand it of them

• Target both immediate and long-term results

• Use gated process that spends investment money incrementally

• Ensure customer is involved

• Gain top executive support for process and pull for results

Page 43: Steve Case Supplier Relations and Productivity Expert     October 2006

Network Centric SystemsTop Reasons for Failure

• Tried to engage supplier during price negotiations

• Product managers kicked off workshop by listing constraints

• Price is far less than supplier costs

• Supplier is a competitor

• Supplier can’t dollarize their own costs

• Supplier cost model entries are far higher than actual costs

• Engineers are unwilling to consider modifications

• Prework data collected is incomplete

• Distrust between supplier and OEM
