Overview

Lean Six Sigma is a process improvement methodology designed to better meet customer needs. Its framework teaches how to eliminate problems, remove waste and inefficiency, and enhance working conditions.

By combining the tools, methods, and principles of Lean and Six Sigma, this team-oriented approach delivers proven results, maximizing efficiency and boosting profitability for businesses worldwide.

This holistic approach is built on three key elements:

  • Analytical tools and techniques: A comprehensive set of tools used to identify and solve problems.
  • Process improvements: A structured series of phases that organize problem-solving, ensuring root causes are found and solutions are implemented.
  • Mindset and culture: A data-driven, continuous improvement way of thinking that drives operational performance.

Analytical techniques are most effective when applied within a culture of continuous improvement. Similarly, effective processes without the right tools will fall short. Also, a culture focused on improvement needs both tools and a defined process to achieve its goals.
