Purpose: This research aimed to reduce the turnover time (non-operative time) in the operating room (OR) at a US Northwestern hospital. Design/methodology/approach: Data collection consisted of observation and interviews of the aides, circulating nurses, and surgical techs to identify causes of delays and long turnovers. It was determined that the turnover could be divided into two stages: cleaning the room and setting up for the next surgery. The research team met with the staff (aides) to create a standard operating procedure for the cleaning stage. It was decided to create an agile standard procedure that would allow the process to be completed the same way effectively with any number of people ranging from 1 to 3. The flexibility accounts for the number of people who are to complete the procedure and considers that some of them are only available during portions of the cleaning stage due to multiple turnovers or duties.Findings: The agile cleaning procedure reduced the cleaning time by 2.2 minutes (15.7% of the total time) and the standard deviation by 3.30 minutes. A decrease in variability represents more consistent turnovers, creating more predictable times for scheduling surgeries in the future.Originality/value: This research proposes a novel approach to standardized work that quickly adapts to the number of workers available. The agile standardized work procedure (ASWP) allows the process to be completed the same way every time effectively with any number of people.

This paper discusses an analytical prescriptive approach to analyzing education policy. This study uses an appropriate literature review method so that the results of the study are in the form of an overview based on a critical analysis of the subject matter of the benefits of prescriptive analytics in the field of Islamic education management. The main issues discussed in this study include a prescriptive analytics approach as an educational policy analysis approach, a prescriptive approach model in education policy analysis, and the advantages and disadvantages of a prescriptive approach in education policy analysis. This study finds that a project manager must undertake prescriptive analytics today and in the Industry 4.0 era. However, managers have a weakness in skills in this area because the future of data analysis is prescriptive, despite the impact of the obligation to change management. Research advises educationmanagers to realize that prescriptive analytics is not always correct. Prescriptive analytics products can only be applied to one educational institution. However, the domino effect of prescriptive analytics has many benefits for educational institutions,both tangible and intangible.
