3. What is Lean Six-Sigma?
The term “LEAN” is summarized as the effective elimination of
“wastage”
Wastage is the misuse or uncontrolled application of our
resources, including time management
Waste is anything that can not be seen as Value Adding by the
customer
Value Adding actions are ones which increase product or
service value
The focus of “Six-Sigma” is to minimise and centralise process
variation, thus minimising the chance of “wastage”

4. Who thought of Lean and Six-Sigma?
In an attempt to eliminate wastes & become “Lean”, businesses
must implement systems and tools that aid in measuring and
removing wastes
These tools have various names and is most commonly known
as Lean Six-Sigma Systems
Toyota were the initial innovators of some of these tools and
developed a system called Toyota Production Systems or more
commonly known as TPS
Motorola also developed a set of tools called Six-Sigma
All these tools and methods aim for the same result, to eliminate
waste and develop a perfectly efficient process. These tools and
techniques apply to all industries
