The Eight Wastes of Lean...
Waiting- Manufacturing: Machine downtime, bottlenecked operations, equipment changeover; Service: System downtime, response time, approvals
Defects- Manufacturing: Production of defective parts, scrap or waste; Service: Data input errors, design errors, engineering change orders
Processing- Manufacturing: non-value added processes, poor tool and product design; Service: Re-entering data, extra copies and reports
Inventory- Manufacturing: Any excess inventory, batch processing; Service: Office supplies, sales literature, batch processing transactions
Motion- Manufacturing: Reaching for, looking for, or stacking parts, tools; Service: Walking, document transfer
Transportation- Manufacturing: Move materials, parts, or finished goods in/out of storage; Service: Movement from site to site, office to office
Overproduction- Manufacturing: Inventory piling up at a bottleneck; Service: Printing paperwork before needed, purchasing before needed
Employees- Manufacturing: Losing ideas, skills, and improvements by not listening to employees; Service: Limited employee authority and responsibility
Six Sigma is based upon improving processes by understanding and controlling variation, thus improving predictability of business processes. Six Sigma drives transformational, sustainable bottom line results through the use of proven methodologies that increase process speed, eliminate waste, reduce variation and improve customer satisfaction. All of these inputs are crucial to sustain competitive advantage and achieve high performance.
We provide the guidance to achieve certification under ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 standard requirements. The "triple crown" of management certifications.
