A management approach, application of which enhances quality and efficiency when effectively implemented, Lean Six Sigma training provides a structured approach to resolve any organizational problems, thereby improving the holistic performance. Six Sigma is a set of practices, used to systematically improve processes by eliminating defects. A defect can be failure of a product, process, or service, in meeting the requirements of internal or external customers. Since it was first introduced by Motorola in manufacturing, no industry has remained untouched by the benefits of Six Sigma.

In short, the approach builds a problem-solving culture by using the best methods to help organizations and institutions achieve their targets while satisfying their customers.

    Lean method on the other hand has its focus on, shaping every aspect of the business to provide the best value to consumers by making the processes faster, nimble and free from wastes.

    Like Six Sigma, the end objective of Lean as well, is process improvement. However, Lean focuses on eliminating wastes. Rather than focusing on one point in a process, Lean requires optimizing a process as it flows through the various technologies, assets, and departments before reaching customers.

    Lean Six Sigma is a synergized managerial concept of Lean and Six Sigma and is one of the most relied upon approaches for process improvement across industries.
