Our Approach to Lean Six Sigma
Lean Six Sigma is a melding of two powerful methodologies (Lean and Six Sigma) with complementary toolkits. In addition to reducing variation and defects, Lean Six Sigma seeks to drive out waste and improve the efficiency of processes through the use of tools like 6S, 8 Wastes, and value stream mapping.
Combining the two techniques, Six Sigma and Lean tools, with effective team skills has proven vastly effective in solving problems including:
- Number of delays
- Long wait times
- Long cycle times
- Product defects
- Excessive costs: rework, scrap, late deliveries, replacement of returned goods, loss of customers, loss of goodwill, etc.
- Excess inventory
- Multiple storage and movement of materials
- High conversion costs
- Underutilization of capacity
