Lean Six Sigma Consulting

Applying the Lean and Six Sigma methodologies to improve organizational performance requires thorough understanding of the key principles that apply to each of them. Their incorrect or misguided application may dilute their power, resulting in waste of time and resources, and frustration among many. The table that follows, and that presents the 10 rules of Lean and Six Sigma, provides an overview of some key characteristics of each methodology.

The appropriate application of Lean and Six Sigma, either as standalone methodologies or fully integrated, should be linked to the strategic goals of the organization. This way, the appropriate tool is selected based on the nature of the issue that needs to be addressed.

Our experienced Lean Six Sigma consultants can help your organization:

• Decide which deployment model best suits your own organization (Lean Six Sigma White Paper).
• Establish an effective governance structure.
• Identify opportunities (areas of focus) to apply the methodologies to enhance business performance.
• Select projects within the areas of focus.
