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
