美国施奈德物流公司简介
Schneider公司建立于1935年，是一家私营企业。到上世纪90年代晚期，已成为全美最大的专业货车运输公司，年营业额近30亿美元，有20000多名员工。
持续进行运营创新
2000年，Schneider公司增长步伐却慢似蜗牛，生产力降低，收益下滑。公司领导人熟悉到，在这样一个高度竞争、产能严重过剩的行业中，在客户服务方面超过竞争对手，是成功的要害。公司设定了客户满足度长期目标，并着手改善公司与客户互动的一个环节，即如何针对客户“索要建议书”，预备并提交答复。公司召集了得力干将组成团队，提出了许多非常好的点子，但是，最终结果却是零：没有做出任何改变，一切仍是老样子。
然而，施奈德公司的领导人并未放弃，而是换种方式重新开始。这回，公司取得了惊人的成功：对客户RFP的响应时间由30～45天骤减为1～2天；在项目启动的9个月中，上述成果开始显现；在不到两年时间里，成效已得到充分体现。由于回应客户的速度远远超过竞争对手，施奈德能够把握竞争的主动权。结果，施奈德公司中标百分比上升了约70％，每年带来数亿美元的销售增额。
第一次努力到第二次努力成功的六个要害因素：
1）、流程重点
第二次，他们首先创建了企业流程模型，从少数几个端对端价值创造流程出发，描述了业务运营。施奈德公司的模型包括“制定运输解决方案”、“获取新业务”、“获取运输订单”、“移动货物”、“提供移动货物的能力”。这几个流程几乎涵盖了所有员工的全部工作。通过定义“获取新业务”流程，设定其边界，确定其度量标准并将其瞄准改善目标，施奈德公司恰如其分地界定了需要解决的问题。而第一次，施奈德公司纯粹从预备建议书的角度概括创新努力，因而将众多跟获取新业务有关的群体和活动排除在外。
2）、流程责任人
要获得重大成果，就必须对组织的许多部分做出改变。但是，由于组织各个部门有其自身的议题、目标和度量标准，变革努力往往由于争斗、惰性和抵触而搁浅。流程责任人是得到授权，要在整个企业范围内对流程做出必要改变的高层主管。
3）、全职设计团队
第一次，参与制定新工作方式的人员只是以兼职方式工作，每周工作时间通常低于8小时。到了第二次，该项目成了他们的唯一职责。
4）、经理人的参与
首先，最高层领导积极参与此事，每个月碰面评审进展，解决需要他们介入的问题。其次，设立由流程责任人和若干其他运营经理组成的流程委员会。参与ANB流程的各部门高层领导人以团队形式走到一起，领导新流程设计的实施。
5）、建立认可
毫无征兆地让此类变革降临到一线员工头上，肯定会招致失败。施奈德公司让一线人员参与整个再设计活动，这让他们觉得自己像参与者而非受害者，并帮助他们既看到旧有做事方式的缺陷，又看到新方法的效力。这些人员中，有许多人从抵触者转成为变革的鼓吹者。
6）、行动偏好
力求把新工作方法设计得尽善尽美的企业，通常一事无成。施奈德公司采取了“有70％就去做”的原则。修正后的ANB流程在许多方面不同于旧流程。比如，以前按照服务项目将销售代表分门别类。如今，他们代表施奈德公司的所有服务。
然而，这套新流程还远不是故事的结束。施奈德很快发现，处理订单和发货的现行方式无法消化新ANB流程带来的业务增量，于是，公司开始了针对这些流程的再设计。新的ANB流程也没有被高高地供奉起来，最近刚刚启
