How is a 'continual improvement register' used?
A 'continual improvement register' is used to organize past, present, and future improvement ideas. It serves as a central repository to track and manage improvement initiatives from their inception through to their implementation and completion, ensuring that opportunities for improvement are documented, assessed, prioritized, and appropriately acted upon.
Page 82: To track and manage improvement ideas... oeganizations use a database or structured document called CIR. I think it's not C because how you can manage future ideas?
I believe that C is correct because the idea here is not to manage future ideas, but to recognize and list opportunities.
I would say C: A continual improvement register is used to track and manage improvement ideas from identification through to final action. It provides a structured and systematic approach to identifying, recording, and prioritizing improvement opportunities, as well as tracking progress and outcomes. The register is used to organize past, present, and future improvement ideas, and to ensure that they are reviewed, evaluated, and acted upon in a consistent and transparent manner.
5.1.2 Continual Improvement - It does not matter exactly how the information is a CIR is structured (not A), or what the collection of improvement ideas are called in any given organization. What is important is that improvement ideas are captured, documented, (to include future ideas), etc...
Is it not option A?
The use of CIRs provides additional value because they help to make things visible. This is not limited to what is currently being done, but also to what is already complete and what has been set aside for further consideration at a later date. It does not matter exactly how the information in a CIR is structured, or what the collections of improvement ideas are called in any given organization. What is important is that improvement ideas are captured, documented, assessed, prioritized, and appropriately acted upon to ensure that the organization and its services are always being improved.
CIRs are used to constantly reprioritize improvement opportunities. The use of CIRs provides additional value because they help to make things visible. This is not limited to what is currently being done, but also to what is already complete and what has been set aside for further consideration at a later date
Totally agree with this explaination, is taken from the coursebook.
The text states that: "To track and manage improvement ideas from identification through to final action, organizations use a database or a structured document called a CIR" (5.1.2, pg. 82). Since the text doesn't necessarily mention the implementation of the improvements, but more so managing and tracking, I think this would best be categorized as an organizing effort. Therefore, I believe the correct answer is C.
"The ITIL continual improvement model, which provides organizations with a structured approach to implementing improvements" and organizations use a database or a structured document called a CIR
"The purpose of the CSI register is to show how an organization can improve its service delivery by setting targets, assessing progress, and then adjusting accordingly."
From the book CIR is about managing a CI from the beginning to the end, so A.
To track and manage improvement ideas from identification through to final action, organizations use a database or structured document called a continual improvement register (CIR)
The only answer referring to "ideas" is C.
A 'Continual Improvement Register' is used **C. To organize past, present, and future improvement ideas**²⁴. It is a tool used in IT Service Management to track and manage improvement initiatives³. The register captures all the processes and procedures that need to be followed about service delivery². It includes information about what is done before, during, and after an incident occurs for it to be handled as efficiently as possible². The register ensures that all ideas for improvement are captured and nothing is lost or forgotten about⁴. It helps identify areas for improvement, set goals, and monitor progress³. The register serves as a central repository for all improvement activities³.
Continual Improvement
C is correct
Would go with C as CIR is mainly to log improvement ideas.
