How to write an SOP (aka the Standard Operating Procedure)
Fabiola Hernandez, Assistant IHP Officer
Enrollment: Limited: First come, first served (no advance sign-up)
Attendance: Participants should attend all sessions.
Have you ever been asked to write an SOP and have you gone “an-S-O-what?”?
Well, we are going to get together and sort it out:
There will be two segments to this experiment, and it would be best if you can attend both.
Target Audience:This IAP is tailored to student work, but all community members are welcome to join!
Requirements: It is best if you have a project in mind: a personal or school project you do in shop, a fun event you are planning, a hack, or work we do in lab. Please take the less than 5 minute assessment to help the facilitator understand your needs around SOPs.
NOTE: An SOP and a safety plan are different, but the thought process and skills acquired in SOP writing are transferrable. If you have ever been asked to submit a safety plan and you did not know where to start this IAP can help!

Is your lab productivity below the sum of its parts? Is your laboratory suffering from fatigue despite the stimulating nature of your research topic? Do some of your graduate students appear "lost" in this system?
Is your laboratory environment siphoning off 10-25% of your laboratory's most precious resource - time - but you can't quite put your finger on it? Then this session is for you.
The secret is in understanding the following formula:
A Good Lab = A Great Lab + Defects
In this session, you and your team will learn how optimize your laboratory's ability to:
Only by optimizing your lab to deliver its worst performance will you be able to "see" the daily defects that gradually wear out the laboratory and reduce its total impact your team could have on behalf of MIT.
This approach is founded upon over 60 years of MIT Sloan research , including Total Quality Management (Feigenbaum), Lean Operations (Krafcik), System Dynamics (Forrester), Culture (Schein), and Little's Law.
You'll leave with 12 month playbook on how to turn around your lab by IAP 2020. In addition, the worst three labs will receive a complimentary visit from Dr. Defect himself.
Can you see into your laboratory's refrigerator and "see" when the paper in Science will come out? Dr. Defect can!
