"Dear Dr. T.
The tools that my colleagues and I learned in the Lean Six Sigma class have proven valuable in improving processes in our plants. Your methods of teaching go beyond bookwork, to utilizing real world techniques that make them easier to understand." Mark Bartoe
"Dr. T. and his team were excellent during the training. Their scheduling flexibility was awesome, they tailored the class to our needs, but as I learned when we finished I fully understood Six Sigma and could apply it any scenario." Don Winn
Read more testimonials here | What is Lean Six Sigma?
Lean Six Sigma is a data-driven process improvement philosophy which focuses upon the elimination of errors in products and service while reducing the inventory and non-value.
The term “Sigma” itself is a measure of variation hence a Six Sigma process results in 3.4 parts per million (PPM) errors, a virtually error-free process. Lean manufacturing, introduced by Toyota, combined with the power of Six Sigma started expanding into all sizes of companies in a great variety of industries and services around the world. | | | | | | | What is DFSS?
Design for Six Sigma is the most empowering tool for new product and process design to ensure that resulting product /process meets Six Sigma goals of virtually defect free.
DFSS could also be used as a result of a Six Sigma project which ended because Six Sigma improvement process was not suitable to overcome fundamental design issues. Many companies today take advantage of DFSS to design new products hence eliminating errors in products and service delivery before customers see them. | | LSI Guarantee for Results:
