Governance and Operational Excellence

Governance and Operational Excellence drive and enable the performance of all areas and activities at IIBT. The aim of governance is to facilitate effective, efficient and pragmatic management, transparency and accountability that can deliver the long-term success of IIBT. A solid structure, organisation, well-designed reporting systems, ethical approaches and monitoring all dealings, interactions, and transactions effectively are crucial. One of the fundamental objectives of corporate governance is to develop transparent, effective and efficient business practices.

Operational excellence is a core part of the IIBT to remain competitive and cost-effective as it facilitates execution of the strategic plan and goals, improves consistency, efficiency and work processes required for business success. Operational excellence embraces problem-solving, continuous improvement, flexible change approaches, fit for purpose quality assurance methods, tools and systems to support the broad key performance outcomes.

By 2025 all IIBT’s governance, management and administrative policies, processes and systems will be developed, implemented, tested and refined based on best practice examples in comparable organisations.
