Six Sigma is a comprehensive and flexible system for achieving, maintaining, and maximizing success in business activities, based on: Deep understanding of consumer needs. clear and competent use of facts, data, and statistical and analytical methods. proactive management, development, and reorganization of business processes. “We consider the Six Sigma system to be the most promising […]
Six Sigma Statistical Framework | Despite the fact that knowledge of statistics is not the main point of the concept of “Six Sigma”, the name came from the subject of statistics. Any process can be represented in the form of a mathematical model. Where the main parameters of the result of the process are the
Before an experiment can be conducted, the experimental design must be carefully planned to ensure that experimental objectives can be accomplished, assumptions required for hypotheses testing and data analysis are valid, randomization requirements are met, and the experiment is reproducible. The experimental design refers to the specific manner in which the experiment will be set

The Butterfly Effect illustrates how seemingly minor improvements, when accumulated through the principles of Kaizen, can lead to significant and sustainable growth in complex systems. Continuous improvement involves the implementation of activities that do not require significant costs, but the return on them is sometimes elusive in monetary terms. How to correlate Kaizen and

Lean manufacturing failures often occur due to companies’ superficial understanding of the concept, the lack of support from top management. The focus on production processes while neglecting other crucial aspects, and the expectation of quick results without embracing the underlying philosophy of lean manufacturing. General Question : Why Lean manufacturing failures ? Companies embarking on
Lean change management includes lean change canvas and iterative cycles for effective changes for organizational improvements. Since the beginning of the New Year, we love to plan for change. We write and compile lists, glue stickers with changes and improvements in work, in sports training and, sometimes, in everyday life and family environment. But,
Six Sigma Methodology (or interpretation, “6 Sigma”) is become increasingly common in the practice of modern companies. This article provides an example of how to apply the technique “6 Sigma” at the stage when the business processes of the enterprise are described, graphical models are built, and their analysis is carried out for subsequent optimization.

Here are some facts that i try to explains as i feel about the – why lean manufacturing fails in enterprises, and what are the common reasons! Be suspicious of consultants who want to teach lean classes. Create Ohno or Ford… They risked their skin and their future. They thought and acted, at the expense
The Value Stream Mapping (VSM) Algorithm is a systematic and effective approach. It is useful for identifying, analyzing, improving, and optimizing the flow of production. Value stream mapping is the most common method of identifying losses in the production flow of a particular product. It is mandatory when building a flow, aimed at

It is obvious that there may be some mistakes that can happen during implementation of lean on the production floor. The article tries to cover these kinds of mistakes that often occur during the implementation phase of lean manufacturing. To date, there are few manufacturing companies that do not know and do not
