ImprovePlus Six Sigma Consulting
Six
Sigma is a disciplined, fact-based approach
for eliminating defects. The word "sigma"
is a statistical term that measures how far a given
process deviates from perfection. To
achieve Six Sigma, a process must not produce more
than 3.4 defects per million opportunities.
This means to achieve Six-Sigma
we need to be nearly flawless in executing our processes.
The
central idea behind Six Sigma is that it is possible
to achieve near perfect products and services by reducing
process variability. This is accomplished through
the application of proven Six Sigma methodologies:

Employing Six Sigma
methodology has a number of benefits that directly
affect your bottom line:
►
Satisfaction
of strict customer requirements, thereby enhancing
customer satisfaction and retention.
►
Cost
reduction by reducing process variability and defects.
►
Enhanced
competitiveness through consistent quality.
►
Employee "ownership" of improved
processes
MSI focuses on your unique needs and objectives.
We will work closely with you to identify your high
impact business processes that have the longest lead
times and highest process variability. We will
determine how these business processes can be streamlined
and improved to positively benefit your bottom line.

ImprovePlus Lean Consulting
Management
Systems International provides consulting and training
services to organizations seeking to reduce process
cycle time by eliminating waste out of manufacturing
or service processes through systematic, measurable
improvements. At MSI, we tailor our proven ImprovePlus
program to meet your unique Lean needs.
Lean
principles are geared to improving process flow by
eliminating waste. Lean looks at business activities
from the customer's perspective - activities for which
customers are willing to pay. In other words,
Lean looks at business processes from the outside-in.
By understanding the transaction lifecycle from the
customer's perspective, we discover what the customer
is seeing and feeling and are able to identify areas
where we can reduce waste and add value.
The MSI ImprovePlus program focuses on your unique needs, your objectives
and your core competencies. Our highly experienced
consultants work closely with you to identify your
weakest link and projects that can yield "the
most bang for the buck." For example, what
key business processes have the longest lead times
and how can these be streamlined? In short,
we identify critical processes whose continual improvement
will positively benefit your bottom line!

Applying Lean principles
has a number of benefits that directly affect your
bottom line:
►
Cost
reduction by eliminating waste in key business processes.
►
Enhanced
competitiveness through reduced turnaround time in
key services or manufacturing processes.
►
Employee "ownership" of improved
processes
Results of implementing Lean include a 50-to-90 percent
reduction in lead times, and a 4-to-10 times reduction
in inventory turns. In these cases, operating
costs are also reduced while competitiveness is enhanced.
