What We Do

OCI, which is located within the Office of the Chief Financial Officer, coordinates agency-wide implementation of the continuous improvement program and Lean management system. It is a system that enables the agency to track important actions so that we respond to and resolve challenges quickly and thoroughly, using Lean principles and tools. With continuous improvement, all parts of EPA will:
  • set ambitious and achievable targets for their work,
  • measure their results, and
  • improve their processes to bridge gaps between targets and results.

The system uses visual management with regularly updated performance and workflow data to monitor progress toward EPA’s Strategic Plan targets, solve problems, and implement employee ideas. 

Learn more about accomplishments using continuous improvement.
