How We Help You Create Customer Value Any organization striving to create customer value can benefit from the integration of Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma, ISO 9000, and business process improvement principles. Lean Process Improvement: The Lean philosophy is a systematic blend of innovation and problem solving that focuses on customer needs, employee empowerment and elimination of wasteful activities from your processes. Although it has been implemented on the shop floor for more than 25 years, the adoption of these practices can streamline and reduce waste in business and administrative processes as well. We have expertise in implementing Lean in both manufacturing and service organizations. Six Sigma is a process improvement initiative used to reduce the number of defects within your processes. The goal is to create near perfection through continuous improvement, aligning "the voice of the customer" with "the voice of the process". Six Sigma focuses on reducing defects by creating predictable processes. We work with you to reduce process variation and improve the predictability of your processes. ISO 9000 is based on the process approach to quality management. The process approach can be used as a means to identify and manage continuous improvement opportunities. By focusing on processes companies can manage quality as opposed to assuring quality, and continually improve their organization to better meet the needs of their customers. With its process focus ISO 9000 provides a strong foundation for implementing Lean and Six Sigma thereby creating value. Many of our associates are certified as lead auditors and have the knowledge and experience to help you implement an effective quality management system. Business Process Improvement consists of process mapping and cycle time reduction. Ineffective processes cost your organization thousands of dollars every year because the majority of administrative and back office efforts adds no value to the customer. We work with you to help reduce overhead and customer response times by as much as 50%. Our cross-functional process mapping (CFPM) facilitation focuses on cycle time reduction (CTR) - reducing the time for one cycle to be completed (for example, from the time a customer orders to the time payment is received). An additional benefit is that it empowers employees at all levels to be personally responsible for customer satisfaction and business results. Your organization continues to face increasing customer requirements—the need to reduce costs, competition and shorter lead times. Implementing some of these continuous improvement concepts in your organization will ultimately improve your bottom line, overall efficiency and customer satisfaction. You can begin your journey to operational excellence by implementing some of the following methodologies:
