Key steps towards excellence through Lean Six Sigma

  1. Gap Analysis
    As a first step, SGS can help you assess to what degree your Quality Management System (QMS) accommodates the specific practices and critical success factors required for successful Lean Six Sigma. Armed with the analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of your QMS, you will have a clear view of how far you need to go and the obstacles that you need to overcome.

  2. Focusing on what’s important
    Balancing the priority between business-as-usual, and strategic improvement often creates internal tension and conflict which in turn can jeopardise the success of any quality improvement programme. Our project selection programme helps you to identify and prioritise the opportunities that improve your day-to-day operations while simultaneously closing strategic gaps and providing a logical framework for improvement.

  3. Arming people to make it happen - Black Belt training
    Once you have identified projects to run, the next step is arming the right people, with the right tools to deliver against your improvement goals. That’s why training and support is indispensable. When it comes to making it happen, we offer stand-alone training from Lean Six Sigma awareness through to a full Black Belt syllabus. Or for those of you looking for the total package, we offer a full deployment support that covers your entire organisation - from the CEO to the shop floor.

  4. Certification – Recognizing your progress
    Quality Management and Six Sigma is a powerful combination.  Through certification in key milestones, SGS can help you to get your progress recognized both internally and externally. We can audit and certify the following areas:

    1. Creating the environment: - Alignment of your Quality Management System with Lean Six Sigma principles

    2. Your Lean Six Sigma deployment  - Project Selection, Resources & Capability, Programme Governance

    3. Your Lean Six Sigma results
