Are you having problems with your production due to all the problems that are affecting your processes? This is completely normal but this doesn’t mean that because of it you have to neglect the importance of solving those problems as soon as possible. And if you’re thinking to do it by adding elements or tools that can solve them—mostly momentary—consider going further than this.
Many companies limit themselves to solve some problems in a matter of a few weeks or months just to avoid having to deal with the problem entirely. As a result, they always have more issues to solve from one simple thing that could have been dealt with long ago. Now, what do we think is the best way to fight back or solve problems? By determining the cause of everything and, if possible, eliminating everything related to it.
We think that the idea of eliminating things can be more effective than adding, at least, when it comes to issues. Which is why our company is a huge believer in the Lean Six Sigma methodology. It focuses on eliminating waste and all the aspects that interfere with the processes in a company, and we at Maximum Potential, are always ready to implement it in any company that requires it.
How does it work—in specific—?
Many methods come with the need of acquiring specific tools or instruments but in the case of Lean Six Sigma that won’t be necessary. This methodology only uses statistics and data of the company and its processes to determine the problems and allow the experts to find solutions for them. For this, everything that is information and reports is going to play important roles in the improvement of each process.
Now, why would you want to improve your processes in the first place? To begin with, improving anything in your company means that its performance will get better. In simpler words, processes = performance. And this is going to bring quite more benefits if your company is destined to fabricating products for other companies or particulars.
After all, Lean Six Sigma is usually—but not always—implemented in companies that want to obtain final products for their clients. The whole project consists of eliminating the waste from the processes that are usually carried out by people, and make sure there’s a reduction in the failures while obtaining the product. As a result, the company will be able to use fewer resources in each production.
But the main goal isn’t to just obtain a simple improvement that will determine the current performance but rather make a general impact. Which means that improvements in the processes need to happen all the time.
