Tutto ciò poterà a ridurre progressivamente la vostra dipendenza da consulenti esterni.
the aim of Lean Six Sigma
Remember this – Is this what we are aiming at?
- This customer values time (speed) at any cost
- Most of our customers value a specific balance of quality, cost and time (delivery)
- But no one values waste
- So when we are thinking of ‘lean’ we are aiming at reducing the non-value adding gaps in the value chain
- Produce only what the customer requires
- Improved communication between processes
- Standard method for communicating between processes – Kanban
- Production system can respond to changes in customer demand
- Decreases Inventory levels
Lean Transformation and ICT
Lean IT is the extension of lean production and lean office principles to the development and management of info tech (IT) products and services. Its central concern, applied in the context of IT, is the elimination of waste, where waste is work that adds no value to a product or service.
Although lean principles are generally well established and have broad applicability, their extension from manufacturing to IT is only just emerging.Indeed, Lean IT poses significant challenges for practitioners while raising the promise of no less significant benefits. And whereas Lean IT initiatives can be limited in scope and deliver results quickly, implementing Lean IT is a continuing and long-term process that may take years before lean principles become intrinsic to an company’s culture.

Stages of perfection with Lean Transformation
The internal value adding system cannot meet external customer demands with high inventory, high staff costs, high waste, low quality and thus low profitability.
The internal value adding system only just meets customer demands for delivery and quality but costs are still too high.
The internal value adding system meets customer delivery targets without high inventory; staff and resources are focused on quality and delivery.
Internal value adding capability exceeds customer expectations and products are delivered on time and on quality.
Profitability is high and costs are low. The perfection stage. Fine tuning of the value adding system and advanced proactive discussions with customers regarding their needs in the future.
Lean Six Sigma and Supermarkets
In Lean Six Sigma the word Supermarket is used to describe a central location for a group of products often held in Kanbans that are collected by a customer.
The obvious analogy is a retail Supermarket that has a range of food, electrical or clothing products held in one large store so customers do not need to visit many different locations. A constant product flow is something you might get in the chemical industry where they use pipes.
Although we aim to make things flow, in most industries constant flow is not possible; we need supermarkets. Basically a supermarket is a store; parts in the supermarket are there because supply cannot be linked directly to demand.
Supermarkets are a group of centrally located Kanbans;
the central location is to allow ‘customers’ the time saving benefit of one stop shopping and supplier consolidation In Lean thinking, supermarkets are a necessary evil;
they should be located as close as possible to the customer(s) and not confused with a buffer stock that may be held within the production chain.
Lean Six Sigma toolkit with KanBan?
Kanban Definition, very usefull Lean Tool
- A communication system used to signal starting work on the work items in processes – Kanban is Japanese for card or signal
Concept
- The Kanban signal contains the specific information required to authorise the commencement of work and comes from the next step in the process; without the signal, no work is started
This means that the customer pulls the item through the entire value chain
Nothing is supplied until it is needed by the next process step (JIT)
This means all the links in the value chain have to be very, very close
Examples of Kanban mechanisms
- Cards, faxes
- Bins
- Defined Floor Location
- Call Light
- Electronic Signal (email, EDI, RF, Bar Code Reader)
