If you still have doubts as to the merit of combining Lean and Six Sigma, RetailWire and Supply Chain Digest give you an idea.
Many believe this “Lean Six Sigma” strategy is the best way to improve overall supply chain results and tackle process improvement more holistically.
I don’t see why a sound combination of eliminating wastes and reducing variation cannot benefit a company.
A more relevant question, I think, would be, is your organization ready for a Lean Six Sigma initiative? Or does Lean Six Sigma fit in your organization’s improvement processes?
