Operational and Quality Improvement:

Lean Six Sigma

UNB Lean Six SigmaLean Six Sigma is a result of two powerful methodologies (Lean and Six Sigma) that have a complementary toolkit. Combining the two techniques with effective team skills has provided vast improvements.

The fundamental objective of Juran’s Lean Six Sigma Services is to develop a methodology and strategy that enable individuals and organizations to successfully improve processes and reduce variation.

At a project level the Lean Six Sigma DMAIC process (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control) is an improvement system for existing processes falling below specification and provides methods for obtaining breakthrough improvement.

Why choose Lean Six Sigma?  

Lean and Six Sigma methodologies are hailed for cutting waste and reducing variances in many business processes, both in the private and public sectors. When practiced jointly, Lean and Six Sigma can be a highly effective combination for operational and quality improvement.

Join private and public entities, including the Government of New Brunswick and various municipalities across the province that have managed to sustain a comprehensive improvement program using Lean and Six Sigma.
