What to Expect

Lean Six Sigma combines the speed and simplicity of Lean with the statistical predictability of Six Sigma to create solutions for better business practices and dramatic bottom line results.

With Lean, the student will learn how to apply Single Piece Flow, Cellular Manufacturing, Kanbans, and 5S, Visual Controls, Error Proofing and Quick Change-overs to reduce cycle times and speed up production without reducing quality standards. Lean will focus on the removal of non-value added steps, thereby simplifying the process.

With Six Sigma, students learn how to make data driven decisions by using applied statistics. Over 35 tools are taught to allow students to gain process knowledge to make their processes Better, Faster, Lower Cost, and Safer. They will deploy these tools through a project using the Define, Measure, Analyse, Improve, and Control (DMAIC) roadmap. The Six Sigma tools strive to reduce process variance, measure the process, and find optimal settings in a pursuit of perfection.

Focus on using the Lean Six Sigma tools to ensure sustainable process improvements. We give students many proven support tools and document files to ensure proper Lean Six Sigma project execution and documentation. Fun classroom simulations give students a “hands on” exposure to the Lean Six Sigma tools and concepts. Often our clients will require a completed and approved project demonstrating $50,000 cost savings for the organization to then certify their people
