The functions tend to correspond closely to university degree programs. Persons with higher education in a functional area specialize in the work assigned to the function. Process Excellence is the set of activities specifically designed to create excellent processes. PE is change-oriented and cross-functional. It includes Six Sigma, all of the initiatives listed earlier, and many more as well. By creating a top-level position for PE, leadership assigns clear responsibility for this important work.
