Importance of Lean Six Sigma as an Improvement Strategy
Inherent to every organization, large or small, formal or informal, local or international is a deep-rooted link between their purpose of existence and processes that support their existence. While their purpose finds expression in strategic configurations, their functionality and competitiveness is indisputably the manifest of an effective operating framework.
​
Lean Six Sigma is an evidenced-based, data-centric methodology, aimed at improving customer experiences and organizational results, through the application of tested tools designed to prevent defects, reduce variations, condense cycle times and eliminate waste, while enhancing overall process controls, producing quality outputs and driving high performance.
