Timing plan
This should take between sixteen and twenty weeks depending on the
complexity of the systems under review (see Table 10.4 for approximate
timings).

10.5 Why do TPA?
Lf your OAE is currently 60 per cent, that implies that in any five-day week
only three days’ equivalent are adding value. The other two days‘ equivalent
is ’a complete waste of time and effort’. Lf you can eliminate waste and non-
value adding activities, so that your OAE is 80 per cent, then that is like
having an extra day a week of value adding support. How can you afford not
to practise TPA?
