LEAN Six Sigma

LEAN SIX SIGMA


Lean Six Sigma is a method that relies on a collaborative team effort to improve performance by systematically removing waste and reducing variation. It combines lean manufacturing/lean enterprise and Six Sigma to eliminate the eight kinds of waste (muda): Defects, Over-Production, Waiting, Non-Utilized Talent, Transportation, Inventory, Motion, and Extra-Processing.

Lean Six Sigma is used to reduce process defects and waste, and to provide a framework for overall organizational culture change. Through the introduction of Lean Six Sigma, employers hope to change the mindset of employees and managers to one that focuses on growth and continuous improvement through process optimization. This change in culture and the mindset of an organization can potentially maximize efficiency and increase profitability.

In order to implement Lean Six Sigma, a combination of tools from both lean manufacturing and Six Sigma are necessary. Some of these tools include kaizen, value-stream mapping, line balancing, and visual management.

Value to Customer

Lean Six Sigma allows companies to improve their processes and the quality of their products. In turn, they are able to produce more products at a cheaper price with less error. Customer satisfaction will increase, which will then lead to an increase in customer loyalty.

Increase in Profit

 As a result of eliminating waste and improving the quality of production, Lean Six Sigma reduces costs for organizations and increases profitability. General Electric reportedly experienced a profit-cost savings exceeding $2 billion.

Standardized and Simplified Processes

With the help of value stream mapping, Lean Six Sigma eliminates wastes in processes and unnecessary steps to stream-line production. The processes are simplified so that they are easier to follow and less likely to lead to error. The simplified processes will also reduce time, leading to a decrease in overhead costs
