Why are this Lean Process and Six Sigma course essential?

Lean is a systematic approach to reduce or eliminate activities that don’t add value to the process. It emphasises removing wasteful steps in a process and taking the only value-added steps. The Lean method ensures high quality and customer satisfaction.

It helps in

• reducing process cycle time,
• improving product or service delivery time,
• reducing or eliminating the chance of defect generation,
• reducing the inventory levels and
• optimising resources for key improvements, among others.

It is a never-ending approach to waste removal, thus promotes a continuous chain of improvements.

Six Sigma is a data-driven problem-solving methodology. The focus is on process variations and emphasis is given to customer satisfaction. Continuous process improvement with low defects is the goal of this method.

Six Sigma aims to make a process effective with – 99.99996 % defect-free. This means a six sigma process produces in 3.4 defects per million opportunities or less as a result.

Six Sigma is a structured problem-solving methodology. Problem-solving in Six Sigma is done using the DMAIC framework. There are five stages in this framework. They are

• Define,
• Measure,
• Analyse,
• Improve,
• Control.
