Lean Six Sigma
Imagine a realm where business processes are optimised, waste is minimised, and customer expectations are exceeded– this is the world of Lean Six Sigma. Lean Six Sigma is a process improvement methodology that merges the power of Lean and Six Sigma approaches. Lean process, which is based on the principle of continuous improvement, aims to eliminate waste while maximising value for the customer. On the other hand, Six Sigma is a data-driven approach that focuses on reducing variation and defects in processes, using statistical analysis and problem-solving techniques. Together, Lean Six Sigma has revolutionised the ways organisations operate and succeed, and can be applied to any industry or business process.
The Lean Six Sigma course will provide participants with the fundamental principles of Lean Six Sigma, and how to apply them to business processes, reduce waste, and deliver measurable results. Participants will gain an understanding of the DMAIC and DMADV problem-solving approaches, and how to use common Lean Six Sigma tools and concepts, such as Value Stream Mapping and Kaizen, to facilitate process improvements. With the power of Lean Six Sigma, organisations can efficiently streamline their workflow and achieve operational excellence.
