..What is Lean Six Sigma?

Structured Process Improvement and Waste Reduction
Lean and Six Sigma are structured methodologies companies use to reduce waste, eliminate non-value-added actions and reduce cycle time in any manufacturing, transactional or service process.

Lean has a rich and proven history that began in the automobile industry at Ford in the 1920s, and was expanded by Toyota in the 1950s. Six Sigma was officially founded by Motorola, but later popularized by GE through Jack Welch as a process improvement methodology.

Combining Lean with Six Sigma has proven beneficial because it produces both short-term results through the power of Lean, and long-term change through the power of Six Sigma. It is for this reason many companies are turning to a combined Lean Six SIgma effort, and are looking for capable Lean Six Sigma practitioners.

Who Uses Lean and Lean Six Sigma?
Manufacturing companies were the first to embrace Lean Six Sigma principles and techniques to improve performance, including most famously Alcoa, Boeing and Lockheed Martin. Transactional and service companies soon followed by applying Lean and Six Sigma to achieve time-savings, waste-reduction operational efficiencies. Since 2005, the healthcare market, both payers and providers, have begun embracing Lean Six Sigma as a way to improve both patient delivery metrics and clinical outcomes.
