Lean six sigma
LP and six sigma
Lean manufacturing and six sigma management to integrate lean six sigma is feasible
1) both are continuous improvement, the pursuit of perfect concept model.This is the essence of the two homogeneity, and because of that, both to have the possibility of the combination.
2) lean manufacturing and six sigma management is closely associated with the TQM, the implementation of all of them with PDCA mode of the same, are based on process management, on the basis of customer value as the basic starting point, this model integration provides a foundation for two kinds of production.
3) as mentioned above, the essence of lean is to eliminate waste, six sigma is the nature of control variable, and variation is a cause of waste, so the focus of the two models is not antagonistic, but complementary.
The integration of the system level
(a) lean six sigma project results of sharing and integration.
Effect of a project is finite, but through the project results in the same or similar to the process of sharing and integration, project after copying the effect will be amplified l0 times, 100 times...
(2) the system point of view to improve and innovation.
Organization itself is a system, any system cannot leave the symbiotic environment and environment, market environment demand is higher and higher, and the diversity and differentiation demand, thus to improve its own ability of the system.
(3) lean six sigma from the method, the technical level to system level.
The development of the organization is the development of the systemic, rather than the development of a process or department.When tools, technical level, some process in the practice of the LSS, made great development, but the process also need to coordinate development, integration and collaboration in the process of asking, will form the system level.
(4) the key process in the aspect of system coordination.
Organization based on the research and development, operations, supply chain, such as customer relationship process in the subsystem, the relationship between understanding the process and the synergy between them, the effect is far greater than the sum of the parts.
(5) system evolution of motivation and safeguard mechanism.
In the external environment, driven by updating and development of organization needs to be done dynamically.LsS to propulsion system are established within the organization system to perfect the evolution of motivation and safeguard mechanism.
(6) from the point of view of system variation and flexibility.
Narrow variation (volatility), reduce the variability of the system, increase the stability, at the same time to enhance the flexibility of the system.Will be able to identify and eliminate waste from the system Angle: (1) six sigma eliminate system variation (DMAIC, DFSS);(2) Lean to enhance the flexibility of the system (Lean).
