I need help with question 1!

Case: “Process Improvement in Stanford Hospital's Operating Room” by Stefanos Zenios et al. (in yourHarvard Business School Press coursepack)Read the case. Submit a report and YAWL model file addressing the following questions:

1. Summarize the existing instrument provisioning process at Stanford Hospital. Identify its purpose andperformance objectives and how it relates to organizational goals (in other words: “What is the processmeant to achieve?”). Cite evidence from the case to support your analysis.Approximately 1 to 2 pages (10%)

2. Identify those parts of the process that you believe cause the major problems. State why you believe theycause problems and what problems you believe they cause. Provide arguments and/or evidence from thecase for this.Ensure that you clearly justify what the major problems to the process are. Do not focus on a singleissue, there are many present in this case. Also, do not try to attempt to list all problems. Recognize thatsome problems are more severe or more fundamental or more critical than others.You should attempt to find a few major root causes of the many problem symptoms. You may find thematerial for the classes on process analysis and improvement useful, but you are not be limited to thatmaterial only.Rank or prioritize the problems/root causes by their severity or importance and briefly justify your rankorder.Cite evidence from the report to support your analysis and to support your ranking/prioritization. Youranswer should be more than a simple list of things the case already mentions but demonstrate someanalysis/deeper thinking.Approximately 2 to 3 pages (15%)
