Lean Six Sigma

Course Description

The Six Sigma methodology is a systematic application focused on achieving significant financial results and increasing customer satisfaction. When employed precisely on selected projects, this methodology leads to a significant reduction or reduction in ineffective operations and control and identification and removal of the causes of defects and errors, which leads to significant financial gains for institutions.

This course provides participants with the Six Sigma concepts, as participants learn the various stages of this methodology including definition, measurement, analysis, development and monitoring (DMAIC) using realistic examples of companies from different fields, and participants also learn how to identify aspects of improvement for projects in order to increase customer satisfaction and reduce variation

This course also focuses on preparing the participants in it to apply the principles, practices and techniques of agile management, Lean Management, which do not require statistics applications such as the Six Sigma methodology, but rather rely on an understanding of the concept of added value and waste, and then determine the places of waste in the process and how to reduce it through various tools and improvement projects such as Puka Yoke, Five S, Vision Management, etc. to improve the working environment and operations.

This course has a focused and specialized content and provides participants with a rich cognitive outcome during the training days with a practical explanation of how to combine the management lean techniques and the six sigma methodology, which is known as the Lean 6 Sigma to improve the performance of institutions by eliminating losses and reducing distortions while maintaining results in a way systematic.
