Global competition and increasingly discerning customers are driving businesses to optimize operations and streamline supply chain processes to deliver high-quality products faster. Lean Six Sigma (LSS) is a practical, application-oriented approach that integrates Lean’s waste reduction with Six Sigma’s focus on minimizing variability and defects to enhance process efficiency and quality. Originating from the Toyota Production System (TPS), Lean emphasizes eliminating non-value-added activities, while Six Sigma targets process variations that lead to defects. The DMAIC methodology – Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control – provides a structured framework for problem-solving and continuous improvement. Widely adopted across industries such as manufacturing, healthcare, finance, and services, LSS helps organizations streamline operations, reduce waste, and improve customer satisfaction.The course offers an insight into these.
