What is the Sapira Process and how does it differ from PLAN-DO-CHECK-ACT?

The Sapira process of SURVEY-ASSESS-PLAN-IMPLEMENT-REVIEW-AUDIT, reflects a consultant lead implementation process.

Whilst recognising the Deming, Shewhart model, the Sapira process was originally conceived to take one step back from process improvement and provide an easy to remember mnemonic which describes a high level methodology for the implementation of any project within an organisation. We believe it represents a much more logical process flow and takes into account both a preliminary scoping phase, implementation and review as well as allowing for on-going involvement through audit and exercise. It also finds resonance in Argenti's corporate planning cycle.

The process has served us well for many years and has become one of the key building blocks of our integrated management system implementation.
