Lean Six Sigma — Help your organization reach its overall objectives with Lean Six Sigma Methodology!
Lean Six Sigma (LSS) is ideal for companies that need to increase customer satisfaction and decrease operating costs. Six Sigma is a problem solving methodology that uses statistical tools and techniques to greatly reduce the frequency of defects and errors within products and services by identifying, analyzing and eliminating variation within production, business administration and customer services processes. The goal of Lean Six Sigma is to eliminate waste and streamline processes, leading to greater efficiencies and better customer satisfaction using the DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control) methodology.
