Lean Six Sigma – A strategy for dramatic organizational and profitability improvement
Within the Lean Six Sigma philosophy, a defect is regarded as anything which causes internal or external customer dissatisfaction or prevents any part of the process from performing flawlessly. The higher the sigma level of a process, the lower the number of defects it produces. A Lean Six Sigma process is one where all of the steps within a process are performing almost perfectly at close to zero defect levels (3.4 ppm.)
The Lean Six Sigma strategy is a data driven, disciplined, and structured, 8-step breakthrough approach which identifies and improves those processes which have a high impact on customer satisfaction and profitability. The approach can be used with technical, manufacturing or with transactional service and administrative processes to dramatically reduce variation and defect levels, shorten cycle times, reduce costs, improve profitability and increase customer satisfaction leading to improved competitiveness.
