OKR template to achieve substantial operational cost reduction
Your OKR template
The first objective involves identifying three costly operations suitable for automation, designing appropriate strategies, and implementing and overseeing the automated processes. These actions aim to significantly improve efficiency in the selected areas, which contributes to the overall cost cutting goal.
The second objective emphasizes further cost reductions through process optimization and waste reduction across all departments. The strategies here include spotting and eliminating inefficient operational processes, training staff on better workflow processes, and implementing waste reduction measures.
The third objective focuses on reducing costs associated with external vendors. Plans here will include researching and evaluating alternative suppliers, developing and executing cost-effective contracts with new vendors, and starting negotiations for current vendor contracts. This step is significant to save on third-party vendor costs.
