Lean Six Sigma (LSS) is a process improvement methodology used in private and public organizations around the world to streamline business processes through waste elimination and analysis of solutions for improvement using data. Lean Six Sigma Presentation Lean Six Green Sigma Belt Presentation Why Organizations Implement Process Improvement To accomplish one or more of the following: Reduce waste Better understand and deliver on customer requirements Improve the efficiency and effectiveness of internal processes Empower employees at all levels to participate in improving the business Drive data-based decision making instead of “jumping to solutions” or opinion Lean SixLean Sigma Presentation SixGreen SigmaBelt Presentation A Capacity Problem Processes Are Like Junk DrawersLean Six Sigma Green Belt Presentation Lean Six Sigma Green BeltPresentation Presentation Lean Six Sigma What is Process Improvement?

But often, people’s time is wasted on wasteful activities. The goal is to reduce wasteful activities to build capacity and continue to deliver more value.

Cares about the project. Can provide direction, resources. Project Director: The Project Manager’s supervisor. To be kept apprised of project direction, status. Project Manager: A member of the project team, guides the project. Team Members: The people that will participate in the project. Core team members are those that meet regularly. Resource team members are brought in as needed. Problem Statement: The problem usually captured in the form of a measurement (Example: cycle time, errors, etc.). The problem statement should not contain the solution, the root cause or imply blame. Business Case/Benefits: The business reasons for doing the project. Usually, this includes the financial impact, customer impact, and/or risk of not taking action. Includes the benefits that are anticipated to be achieved. Lean Six Sigma Green Lean Belt Presentation Six Sigma Green BeltPresentation Presentation Lean Six Sigma Project Charter Definitions Goal Statement: The measurement goal. Usually SMART goals are established (Specific, Measureable, Attainable, Relevant, and Timebound). In Scope: Clarifies/confirms the areas or issues the project will address. What the team is taking on, given time, money and resources. Out of Scope: Clarifies/confirms areas or issues the project will not address. These could be areas that might be assumed to be in scope, or that are subject to interpretation. Potentially these areas could be addressed by subsequent projects. Preliminary Plan: High level tasks and timeline to complete the project. Services/Departments Involved or Affected: High level identification of customers and stakeholders.

Stakeholders: Anyone who does not USE the process, but has a vested interest in how the process performs. Process Partners: Those upstream or downstream from our processes who do work, provide information, documents, materials and continue to add value to services and products to customers.

Lean Six Sigma Green BeltPresentation Presentation Lean Six Sigma 38 Key Take Away: Customers want delivery in 20 minutes or less, so the lunch delivery process is clearly not capable. Lean Six Sigma Green Belt Presentation Lean Six Sigma Presentation Analyze Phase Overview 1. Brainstorm Root Causes 4. Confirm Root Causes 2. Develop Hypothesis 3. Gather Data to Validate Hypothesis Lean Six Sigma Green Belt Presentation Lean Six Sigma Presentation Why Analyze? • Are we medicating a symptom? • Or are we identifying a root cause and addressing it? Lean Six Sigma Green Belt Presentation Lean Six Sigma Presentation The Five Whys • The practice of asking the question ‘why?’ repeatedly, in order to work the causal chain • Usually carried out with a group of people that know the process • No special technique is required Lean Six Sigma GreenLean Belt Six Presentation Sigma Presentation Fishbone Diagram • Label the fish head with the problem statement and brainstorm root causes. • Try these categories.
