thank you for this valuable training.

Dear René,

Thank you for your course! Glad I did that well.

I also wanted to thank you for this valuable training. I learnt a lot and I liked the way the training was given (teamwork, individual exercises, English communication skills, not only theory,…).
It’s a pity I can’t assist to the BB-training, but I will definitely join in the next time.

Good luck with your future trainings/projects and hopefully we’ll meet soon!

Kind regards,

Bilal Makhloufi

All the tools you give me will be a real help in my business.

Dear René,

 

First of all, I’d like to thank you for the session. It was very interesting and since the first day, I go on with my vision helped by the LSS tools for the project I’d like to achieve. I remarked that the scope was too big and that I have now to define a smaller scope to be more efficient (thank you for this advice).

 

All the tools you give me will be a real help in my business. I have to admit that you are fully right with the idea of TEAM WORK, Communication and change management (but I was already aware of those last two)

 

I  have to say that the atmosphere of work was very good.

 

Thank you.

 

Regards,

pierrot

PEEC's accelerated learning provides a very attractive return on investment.

PEEC’s accelerated learning provides a very attractive return on investment. An example of this is the Lean Six Sigma Green or Black Belt, which takes less than two weeks to complete. Elsewhere, this consists of five separate weeks of training; which can take as long as eight months. Imagine the earning potential or career progression opportunities that could pass by over this period.
At PEEC we are passionate about our training, and we want to take you on this journey with us. Call a member of the PEEC team, and find out which training experience is right for you.

Our Master Black Belts

Our Master Black Belts

Master Black Belts are more than just skilled technologists. The cornerstone for success of a quality accelerated technology training provider is the instructor’s ability to translate complex technical theories into understandable concepts and applied knowledge.

In addition to delivering our courses, our instructors are also consultants for major organisations worldwide. Every day, they acquire more extensive real-world experience which is reflected in the courses they teach and the books they write.

PEEC Training instructors are cross-certified industry professionals – ranging from renowned authors to senior information technology consultants, with extensive real-world knowledge.  Every PEEC Training Instructor:

  • Is certified in their chosen subject (in the case of Minitab training we only employ Minitab Certified Trainers)
  • Has many years of experience in a senior consulting role
  • Provides accelerated instruction and guidance, covering fundamentals and hands-on concepts, and demonstrating real-world scenarios to solidify your understanding

The PEEC Master Black Belts deliver the curriculum, provide leadership, coach students to ensure successful information comprehension and retention as well as certification. Instructors provide group instruction and individual assistance with a keen ability to cater to every aptitude and background.

Lean Six Sigma Design of Experiments Y = f(x)

Design of Experiments
§DOE was originally developed in 1930’s by Sir Ronald Fisher to improve agricultural methods
§Fisher used DOE to maximise the yield of agricultural crop (Y) by changing the key process inputs; fertilizers & seed type (x’s)
§ he DOE approach allowed Fisher to understand the main effects of the inputs, and the interactions between the inputs which impact the process output
§The objective is to logically organise changes to 2 or more input variables (x’s) and evaluate if any variable, or any combination of the variables, significantly affect the output (Y)
What is Design of Experiments?
§A DOE is a set of tests on the process output with at least 2 process inputs, each set at 2 or more levels
§The key principle behind the DOE technique is to create a perfectly balanced design which includes an equal combination of process settings

Lean Six Sigma Why Learn Hypothesis Testing?

To identify sources of variability using historical or current data:

  • Passive: a process is sampled or historic sample data is obtained
  • Active: a modification is made to a process and then sample data is obtained

Provides objective solutions to questions which are traditionally answered subjectively

Works for differences in means, or Variances (Standard Deviations), or proportions

Lean Six Sigma and Waste

§Lean operations display the following characteristics:

üThe elimination of non-value adding activity – waste

üOnly producing what is required, when it’s required

üClose links in the value chain including supply chain input (JIT)

üDoing things right first time

üEnsuring processes are robust

 

 

§Many of the techniques are simple and common sense
§These Lean techniques and ‘mindset’ are often mistakenly associated with volume manufacturing.
§However the same principles have also been successfully applied in Project Management, Engineering, Supply Chain, Finance, HR etc.

Lean Six Sigma and Value Stream Mapping

§The current state VSM was created in the Review Phase and is analysed in the Investigar Phase for improvement opportunities.
§There are many lean tools & techniques which can be used but the majority of these are outside the scope of EGB training (see EBB Session 2).
§However, the majority of Lean tools & techniques are common sense improvements that become obvious after modelling the whole value stream.
§Potential improvements opportunities are represented as Kaizen Bursts (call-outs) on the VSM, at the appropriate place within the value stream.
§Kaizen is Japanese for improvement.

new KPI TEEP in Lean Six Sigma

World Class OEE is generally accepted as >85%

The world class OEE performance of 85% is comprised of:

Availability = 90%

Performance = 95%

Quality = 99.9%

Research indicates that average OEE for manufacturing plants is 60%

How does your organisation compare against the ‘best in class’ performance?

Imagine what a 40% improvement in OEE (going from 60% to 85%) could do for your organisations competiveness and profitability!

Organisations are now factoring in how often the equipment is used throughout the year (24/7) – this is called the Loading.  For example if the equipment is used for 40 hours in a week (168 hours) the loading is 40/168 = 23.8%

This can be factored into the relatively new KPI – Total Effective Equipment Performance (TEEP) metric as follows TEEP = Loading x OEE

The key principle behind the DOE technique is to create a perfectly balanced design which includes an equal combination of process settings

Consider the example below with 3 key process inputs, each set at the high end (1) and low end (0) of their respective specification (or process variation) limits
