Lean & Six Sigma Above the Shop Floor Proposal for AIAA paper

Outline 

Comparison of Lean & Six Sigma Approach and characteristics  Common tools & methods 



Product Development Imperative Cycle Time and Lean  Variation and Six Sigma 

Six Sigma vs. Lean Characteristics Six Sigma  Remove variation from processes  Design more capable processes  Research projects (3-4 months)  Focus on parts •High Complexity •Unknown Root Cause •Good Data Available

Lean  Remove waste, rework, inventory  Improve flow, velocity Immediate results (1-2 weeks)  Focus on system •Low Complexity •Known Solutions 

Six Sigma vs. Lean Tools & Approaches Six Sigma Lean  DMAIC  Value Stream  Design for Mapping Six Sigma  Kaizen  Design of Events Experiment  5 S s  Statistical Process  

Product Development Imperative 

80% of product cost is determined in product development



To date Lean & Six Sigma have been addressing 20% of costs

Iterations  

Iterations are always bad in manufacturing Iterations are inherent in design 

  

Learning

Iterations due to rework are waste Design rework on the shop floor is very costly waste Often due to poor understanding of process capability and/or variation 

Variation due to unpredictable results

Lean thinking may lead to Six Sigma projects

Summary 







Most of the waste and cycle time opportunities still remain Lean and Six Sigma are complementary An integrated approach to Lean and Six Sigma can identify and exploit the non-manufacturing opportunities Probably requires dismantling of Lean and Six Sigma infrastructures
