Lean Six Sigma is a combination of two methods: Lean, and Six Sigma. The two approaches are designed to improve processes with focus on customer requirements. Lean is a continuous improvement approach that creates flow in a business, and eliminates any waste, or Muda – anything the customer does not want, or is not prepared to pay for. Six Sigma is a set of statistical analysis tools that are used reduce process variations and defects using the DMAIC methodology of Design, Measure, Analyse, Improve, and Control.
