Progress developed a lean six sigma quick scan. We assign accountability to make sure the improvements we have made are sustainable. In the control phase we document and monitor the process at its new input variables.In the improve phase, we identify and validate improvements that reduce process variation.We find root causes based on objective data. We determine which inputs contribute the most to the output not meeting acceptance criteria. In the analyze phase, we identify input variables that have an effect on the output of the process.We qualify the measurement system for the process output and we measure how well the process is performing as a baseline for our improvement project. The process is mapped, we identify the process outputs we need to improve. In the measure phase, we measure the current state.In the define phase, we scope the project, align stakeholders and form a team of process experts.A project is executed according to a five step improvement cycle (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control), which has some similarities to Demings 4-step PDCA cycle.
Six sigma is a scientific statistics based structured methodology to reduce variation from a process. The acronym TIM WOOD describes seven types of waste:ĭo you recognize any of these seven wastes, but don’t know where to start? We got you! Our experts will find the value and the waste within your business and with you, we define the improvement plan to reduce waste from your organisation.
