(Introduc.on & interac.on) An overview of Lean Six Sigma and the triangle (Presenta.on) Lean Six Sigma as part of Project Management (Interac.on) Opportuni.es for Lean Six Sigma and Project Management the virtuous circle (Presenta.on and conclusions) 2

3 Ex Pharmaceu5cal: R&D (Elisabeth) Manufacturing (John) Consultants, trainers, facilitators Prac55oners of: Process Improvement: Lean Six Sigma (Green Belts) Knowledge management Change management Project management Introduc.on Who we are 3

4 Where are you on your con.nuous improvement journey? 1. Place dots on the brown paper chart to indicate your organisa.ons current understanding / experience of LSS Don t know much about it Something I / we have ac.vely explored One or two days instruc.on or experience It s part of how I / we work Name: Company: 2. Place post it notes with name & company to show your individual understanding / experience 4

5 Your knowledge and experience of In your tables: Lean Six Sigma tools? 1. Discuss and capture on post it notes the main tools encountered (1 3 only per person) for effec.ve implementa.on of either PM or LSS iden.fying whether in PM or LSS 2. Capture at a very high level a) What has been par.cularly useful & why/ how b) Any issues encountered in their use Worked well / how (tools) Tool: PM / LSS? Issue / why (tools) Be prepared to feedback on any common themes, good examples and key issues Facilitators will cluster what has been useful and issues as a record from the mee.ng 5

6 An introduc.on to Lean and Six Sigma 2 topics: 1. How LSS relates to the PM triangle Lean (Time / Cost) and Six Sigma (Quality) 2. DMAIC: the structured approach to LSS With examples of one or two tools per step 6

7 1. The triangle Quality Lean op5mises processes by elimina5ng wasted 5me and money Time Six Sigma op5mises quality of what is delivered to customers by reducing varia5on Cost LSS Principles: Customers define the quality of products & services Quality & speed of work are op.mised Flow & speed are determined by customer pull Those doing the work have the best knowledge to improve the way they do it Opera.onal Excellence is a con.nuous journey 7

8 2. DMAIC Define Defini.on of goals and approach to achieve them Measure Informa.on on current state (also helps to inform goals) Analyse Analysis of issues and their root causes Improve Control Iden.fica.on and evalua.on of solu.ons, recommenda.ons for review with management, change management plans Visual measures to ensure that an.cipated benefits (goals) are being realised; iden.fica.on of new goals RiverRhee Consul.ng
