| What is Lean? |
| Lean is a process designed to bring about rapid, dramatic improvements to the performance of an organization through a simplification of the value stream. It consists of a comprehensive set of elements, rules and tools that focus on value, the elimination of waste and continuous incremental improvement. Results achieved include excellent quality products or services, delivered on time, at the lowest total cost, and only on the specific demand of the customer. When applied to business processes or service environments, lean thinking reduces cycle times and streamlines processes by removing non-value-adding steps. |
| What is Six Sigma? |
| Six Sigma is a business-driven, multi-faceted approach to process improvement that reduces costs and increases profits. With a fundamental principle to improve customer satisfaction by reducing defects, its ultimate performance target is virtually defect-free processes and products. The steps of Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control (DMAIC), constitute the roadmap to achieving this goal. Six Sigma's flexibility easily integrates with existing models of process implementation. |
| Why Lean Six Sigma? |
| Many companies pursue either Lean or Six Sigma as a means to meet the challenge of demanding customers to whom businesses must consistently deliver products and services that are of greater value. However, using one approach independent of the other has limitations. When used together, these methods complement and reinforce each other. Both methodologies continually applied in tandem create sustained realized improvements. |
| Theory of Constraints |
| As a program bonus, this course will also cover the Theory of Constraints. Since 1985, the Theory of Constraints has been delivering tangible results to companies worldwide. It consists of a set of holistic processes and insights based on a systems approach that simplifies the improving and managing of complex organizations by focusing on the few physical and logical constraining "leverage" points. The crucial insight to TOC is that only a few elements in a business control the results of the entire organization. For the system to attain any significant improvement, that constraint must be identified and the whole system must be managed with it in mind. |
