What is Lean six sigma ?

The answer is that this is the methodology to achieve every desirable aspect of business flow; be it hassle free production planning, be it process optimization, be it minimization of production losses !

Similarly; six sigma principles are an effective tool to align human resource for best utilisation of time to achieve goals in time-bound programs

Six sigma is an all inclusive approach towards total business solutions when applied with care & honesty, these principles allow an information at right time and to a right person to maintain a lean approach where no unnecessary articles are involved.

Six Sigma Vs Lean Six sigma

In six sigma when only necessary articles and only necessary persons are involved, it becomes lean six sigma version.

However, there is similarity at many places in curriculum but lean six sigma is more for corporate houses and defence sector.

Why Sigma Institute ?

Sigma Institute is a unique place to learn academia & industry together with oneness approach, no institute in India is so vibrant, so wide to accomodate both; industry & academia, at one side we train the students for JEE/NEET/BITSAT while at other hand we run various job guarantee courses, in addition to all this now we are entering into a more demanding true value courses which enable our professionals into experts and increase their earning index soundly.

Here at Sigma Institute, we facilitate these courses with least expenses & most mentored from the industry professionals having decades of experience in their area of expertise having thorough knowledge of six sigma curriculum, objective & approach.

Sigma Institute runs it’s this program as per the guidelines from world’s largest six sigma certification body the “Six Sigma Council of Certification (CSSC)” course curriculum is directly taken from this global agency of repute.

For industry leaders, Sigma Institute has one more unique & monopoly additional course material in the form of android app “MICost” which enables our professionals to calculate exact costing of finished goods absolutely free of cost !

Unlike other certification providers Sigma Institute charges only once for life-time, no renewals are needed, moreover our charges are at lowest as our objective is to help more & more professionals to recognise their potential and to improve their earning potential.

Courses:

1: Lean Six Sigma White Belt :

In the six sigma industry this is an entry level introductory course to make a person aware about the six sigma/lean six sigma principles, approach & objectives. It does not require any minimum eligibility so anyone can earn this certification for complete life time, moreover it is free of cost.

On successful completion of the course followed by an online test which the candidate has to pass with minimum 80% marks, a globally recognised softcopy of certificate will be awarded !

Short Notes on white belt training manual :

Part 1: Foundations, Metrics & Core Frameworks:

• What is Six Sigma & DPMO (Pages 5–8): Six Sigma combines process improvement methodology and statistics to minimize variation. Statistically, a Six Sigma level achieves a near-perfect rate of only 3.4 Defects Per Million Opportunities (DPMO).
• Voice of the Customer – VOC (Page 9): Every project must align with the Voice of the Customer—capturing what truly matters to the end user to drive quality and value.
• Data vs. Intuition (Page 5): Six Sigma pairs experienced leadership and intuition with rigorous data-driven decisions to prevent fixing problems only after they impact customers.
• Core Methodologies: DMAIC vs. DMADV (Pages 9–11):
  • DMAIC: Used to improve existing, established processes through five phases: Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control.
  • DMADV: Used to design new processes, products, or services from scratch (Define, Measure, Analyze, Design, Verify).
• PDCA Cycle (Page 10): The iterative Plan-Do-Check-Act model used for continuous, daily process changes and experimental testing.

Part 2: History & Evolution of Quality Management:

• Statistical Process Control – SPC (Page 14): Walter Shewhart and W. Edwards Deming introduced control charts, laying the groundwork for statistical quality control.
• Lean & Toyota (Page 15): The Toyota Production System pioneered Lean manufacturing by focusing on speed, workflow optimization, and eliminating waste (Muda).
• Motorola Breakthrough (Page 16): In the 1980s, Motorola formalized Six Sigma to fix severe manufacturing defect rates, proving its financial scalability.
• Corporate Scaling (Pages 17–18): Leaders like Jack Welch at General Electric scaled Six Sigma from a factory-floor tactic into an enterprise-wide business management philosophy.

Part 3: Alternative Methods & Strategic Deployment:

• Alternative Frameworks (Pages 22–27):
  • BPR (Business Process Reengineering): Radical, clean-slate redesign of core business processes for dramatic, step-change improvements.
  • SCRUM: An Agile framework optimized for rapid 2-to-4 week technical and software development sprints.
  • CEM (Customer Experience Management): An outside-in approach aligning every internal operation directly with customer satisfaction metrics.
• When to Deploy Six Sigma (Page 28): Choose Six Sigma when tackling complex, unmeasured problems, unknown root causes, or high-cost operations where fractional variation changes equal millions of dollars in financial impact.
