Lean Six Sigma Courses

What is Lean Six Sigma? 

A methodology that maximizes shareholder value by achieving the fastest rate of improvement in customer satisfaction, cost, quality, process speed, and invested capital.

  1. The term Sigma is a measurement of how far a given process deviates from perfection – a measure of the number of “defects”. Six Sigma implies near-zero defects.
  2. A quality improvement methodology that applies statistics to measure and reduce variation in a process.
  3. A management system that is “comprehensive and flexible for achieving, sustaining, and maximizing business success.”

Lean focuses on minimizing waste, helps create value to a process/ system.

Six Sigma focuses on reducing variability within a process/ system, helps reduce defects.

Together, Lean Six Sigma enhances problem-solving and process improvement by making them more efficient. Implementing Lean Six Sigma helps increase profits, decrease costs, and improve efficiency.
