Problem: A manufacturer did not understand what contributed to the quantity of product shipped each day. They did a lot of work to keep production moving and reduce downtime, but it never seemed to impact their ability to ship more units Causes 165 variables were tracked daily including: Downtime Defects per unit Model mix production […]
A Quick Glance
A Lean Six Sigma Black Belt certification provides your company with a resource dedicated to problem solving. The process entails four weeks of intensive training with three weeks of project application between the monthly sessions. Project support is available following each training session, too. Participants complete two projects prior to certification.
Lean Six Sigma Black Belt Training
Lean Six Sigma is a data-driven approach to problem solving, focusing on defect reduction and process improvement–and almost always resulting in cost savings. Specific projects are customer focused, using a team approach to resolve problems. The methodology utilizes a blend of both the Lean and Six Sigma tool sets. It follows a structured sequence of problem solving techniques to arrive at a solution. Statistics aid in the decision-making process and help to validate the success of the changes made.
You have probably heard of the Six Sigma deployments at General Electric and Motorola. Since its inception, the Six Sigma strategy has been implemented in many other companies.
And it’s not only happening at large manufacturing facilities, but also at catering services, car washes, medical services, printing companies and utilities.
Companies of all shapes and sizes are using the methodologies of Lean Six Sigma to reduce defects in their industries and benefit their bottom lines.
At Strategic Leadership Solutions, we follow the traditional model of Six Sigma training and certification. You will learn to DO Six Sigma … not just learn ABOUT Six Sigma. Our class format is very “hands on,” using student projects and data within the classroom setting. The Lean Six Sigma Black Belt class will take you through the five phases of Six Sigma: Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control.
