What is the WHY/Purpose of Lean Six Sigma?

Lean Six Sigma WHAT/HOW/WHY: WHAT: efficiency gains, waste/variation reduction HOW: tools, belts, training WHY: ??? – what is the WHY/purpose of Lean Six Sigma?
From https://startwithwhy.com/, Find Your Why (Simon Sinek)

Why Lean Six Sigma?
From Kubiak, T.M., and Donald W. Benbow. The Certified Six Sigma Black Belt Handbook, 3rd ed. 2016. Milwaukee: ASQ Quality Press, “Lean Six Sigma is a fact-based, data-driven philosophy of improvement that values defect prevention over defect detection. It drives customer satisfaction and bottom- line results by reducing variation, waste and cycle time while promoting the use of work standardization and flow, thereby creating a competitive advantage. It applies anywhere variation and waste exist, and every employee should be involved.”

- Why fact-based, data-driven?
- Why defect prevention?
- Why reduce variation, waste, cycle time?
- Why standardize work?
- Why should every employee be involved?

Common Challenges with Lean Six Sigma

These questions are more easily answered with PURPOSE
- the WHY behind Lean Six Sigma
- Organizational engagement – what is the benefit, why?
- Training – what is the return, who needs it and at what level?
- Using, following processes – takes too long, too cumbersome
- Achieving results – quantifying, agreeing upon, documenting
- Sustainment – results, training, overall program

(pre-2012) LSS Start
- Top-down support
- Focus on Lean
- LPMS* kick-off
- Dedicated belts focused
- n projects
- Training program
development
2012 – 2017 LSS Growth
- KPIs (VP alignment,
planning)
- Focus on certification
- LPMS* maturity
- Belts throughout
functions

programs
2018+ LSS Acceleration
- Top-down commitment
- Focus on execution,
results in all functions
- Prioritization
- Belt utilization
- Functional mentoring
*LPMS = Lean Promotions Management System
Doosan Bobcat
Top-down Commitment – KPIs, Belt Selection

2017 “Current State”
Certification % by function
2018+ “Future State”
Role-based belts What is needed by role?
- Yellow – lean, Kaizen focus
- Green – DMAIC focus + Kaizen
- Black – mentoring, project selection
Commitment
Why these individuals? Why each belt level?
Doosan Bobcat
Organizational Engagement – Benefit, Why?
12
Why do we need organizational engagement?
- This is an absolute requirement, unless failure is desired
Why should the organization support Lean Six Sigma?
- Results – measuring, managing, achieving
- Employee development
- Continuous improvement culture
- Collaboration
- Innovation

- Kaizen, project leadership (DMAIC, DMADV)
Black Belt (BB)
- Lean/DMAIC/DMADV tools mastery
- Kaizen, project leadership (DMAIC, DMADV)
- Kaizen, project, tools coaching/mentoring
Training and Certification at Doosan Bobcat
Belt Levels Key Considerations
- What belt levels are
needed to achieve desired results?
- What training is needed to
appropriately equip belts?
- How do belts demonstrate
effectiveness?
- What is needed to support
belts (mentoring, other)?

Belt Strategy and Expectations Tied to Purpose
15
- Yellow – lean, Kaizen focus (50%)
- Green – DMAIC focus + Kaizen (37%)
- Black – mentor/leadership focus + DMAIC + Kaizen (13%)
Yellow Belt Certification:
- Structure: Training + Kaizen execution with support of a coach/trainer
- Training content: Lean, DMAIC fundamentals
- Purpose: Kaizen execution (w/ a coach) + results

Belt Strategy and Expectations Tied to Purpose
16
Green Belt Certification:
- Structure: Training + Kaizen leadership + project leadership
- Training content: DMAIC application and tools, project execution
- Purpose: Project and Kaizen leadership + results
- Yellow – lean, Kaizen focus (50%)
- Green – DMAIC focus + Kaizen (37%)
- Black – mentor/leadership focus + DMAIC + Kaizen (13%)
Doosan Bobcat 17
Black Belt Certification:
- Structure: Training + Kaizen/project leadership + mentoring
- Training content: mentoring, leadership, DMAIC in-depth (mastery)
- Purpose: Project/Kaizen identification/leadership + mentoring + results
- Yellow – lean, Kaizen focus (50%)
- Green – DMAIC focus + Kaizen (37%)
- Black – mentor/leadership focus + DMAIC + Kaizen (13%)

Training and Certification at Doosan Bobcat
What is the return on certification and how is effectiveness demonstrated?
- Yellow Belt return
- During training = Kaizen results
- Long-term = Kaizen results throughout functional areas
- Green Belt return
- During training = Project results
- Long-term = Project/Kaizen results – “killing problems”
- Black Belt return
- During training = Project results
- Long-term = functional project/Kaizen selection (tied to top
- bjectives, KPIs), project/Kaizen results – “identifying and killing the
right problems” Effectiveness demonstration: CERTIFICATION CRITERIA

DMAIC Project Deliverables
Tools in red are required; exception (not required) if a new process / product *Recommended Tools Required Tools
STOP STOP STOP STOP STOP- Multiple locations for files
- Multiple options for tools
- PowerPoint used to “demonstrate”
- Time-consuming
- Confusing post-training

Following Processes at Doosan Bobcat
Future State – Simplified Process to Achieve Results
- ALL projects in ONE place – LSS, NPD, IT, etc.
- Tools tied to deliverables, tied to methodology (Kaizen, DMAIC)
- PowerPoint no longer needed
- Process drives the work – no longer “extra” work
- Encourages using the methodology FROM THE START vs. after to certify

Purpose:
- Identify projects tied to strategic
goals for all functions
- Align projects to appropriate
methodology
- Ensure resources are available to
execute projects

Achieving Results at Doosan Bobcat Demonstration
Purpose #1: REAL savings aligned with Finance and tied to bottom line
- Universal calculation of
project benefits for ALL projects (not just LSS)
- Review of project benefits
with Finance
- Project prioritization based
- n planned project benefits
- Ease of reporting
- By department
- By project type
- By site
- Etc.

Achieving Results at Doosan Bobcat Demonstration
Purpose #2: ensure that the right problem is killed, and that learning and lessons learned are built upon for future improvements
Define Measure Analyze Improve Control
- Problem statement verified?
- Project plan/schedule?
- Resource plan/team?
- Is there a plan for collecting data?
- Baseline established?
- Current state process understood – 5W1H?
- Potential causes (fishbone, 5 whys, FMEA)?
- Top contributors to problem (Pareto, prioritization)?
- Statistical, hypothesis testing to identify root cause(s)?
- Idea generation/rating to improve/design solution(s)
- Develop, design, then test ideas/designs
- Improve data analysis – demonstrate improvement
- Updated metrics – what was the impact, project benefits?
- Control plan – how do we sustain improvements?
- Lessons learned?
How do Belts “show” that right problem is solved down to the root cause?
