How do Six Sigma and Lean interact?
Improving process accuracy through Six Sigma improves the flow, because there will be less rework and correction. As well, Lean strategies, like elimination of non-value adding work or simplification, will improve the results by eliminating opportunities for error and the complexities that leads to error.
Improving process accuracy through Six Sigma improves the flow, because there will be less rework and correction. Additionally, Lean strategies—such as eradication of non-value-adding work or simplification—will improve the results by eliminating both opportunities for error and the complexities that lead to error.
