Lean Six Sigma practitioners and project team members will get a thorough understanding of what it means to perform a capability analysis and the benefits that can be gained from quantifying the capability of a process. It covers several concepts such as short-term vs. long-term capability, various capability metrics, and a four step process for calculating capability for attribute and variable performance characteristics.

Used to show the application of the Lean Six Sigma methodology on a real problem. It also shows how the different tools seen during the week of training are applied on this project. This will give the student a reference on how a final report will look like and how the application and analysis of the tools will lead to solve the problem.

This module explains a primary Lean concept, value stream mapping, and its role in identifying waste in and between processes. The module explores the aspects of a value stream -- all actions and process steps, both value-add and non-value-add -- required to create a product or service. Concepts such as SIPOC, top down flow chart, process flow mapping are discussed in the 8-step process to creating a value stream map. The module requires an understanding of process flow mapping.
