The Famous Lean Six Sigma Training

By Essie Osborn


The manufacturing business relies heavily on quality control when it comes to making their products because without good quality products, there will be no money that will be learned. Now those who would want to be very effective in product manufacturing, the lean six sigma method is one of the most effective method of them all. Now if one would want to learn this method, he needs to learn from a lean six sigma training program.

Now just so one would know, this very famous method is actually a combination of the famous lean manufacturing method and the equally famous six sigma method. Since both methods work so well, they were integrated in order to produce even better results than they do individually. By using the combined or integrated method, it is actually possible to be very productive.

Now the first of the two that the trainer would be discussing would be the lean manufacturing method. If one is a beginner in this method, then this type of session will shed some light on it. In a nutshell, this method is a manufacturing method that would help lower down the total costs of production while still maintaining or increasing quality which would in turn result in an increase in profits.

As for the six sigma method, it is a method that would allow manufacturers to lessen the defects in the products. Basically, it would actually be a process that would help the manufacturers spot the processes that would produce inefficiencies in the manufacturing process. In a nutshell this method allows manufacturers to only have three point four defects out of a million.

Of course in order to learn both of them, one would have to undergo first the classroom session and the application. The lecture session would include theoretical concepts of these two methods. The application portion would make use of real life business cases or situations that would tweak the minds of the trainees so that they know how to properly apply the concepts.

After he has already studied how each of them individually work, then he may now start with integrating them. Now when they are combined, one will be learning the DMAIC process which is simply define, measure, analyze, improve, and control method. The main goal here is total elimination of useless processes and total optimization.

Now if one is not familiar with how this works, basically one just has to first know the problem and measure how grave the situation is. After taking care of the problem, then one has to analyze it carefully and then create a solution. After creating a solution, one has to think of how to improve the overall process and of course how to create a system that will help maintain the process.

Take note that there are ranks as to how much a person has already mastered this method. Now the rankings are actually the same as the rankings that karate practitioners use. Basically, one would be going through white, yellow and green belts before he reaches his highest form which is black belt.
