Key Elements
Lean Six Sigma combines strategic, tactical and operational elements designed to help an organization correctly
diagnose the root causes of performance gaps and apply the most appropriate tools in addressing them.
Lean Six Sigma incorporates detailed planning to identify key business objectives and customer requirements, to
determine the right continuous improvement projects to charter. A tactical deployment model beginning with the value
stream map, this methodology ensures the alignment of goals and metrics throughout the organization.
Kaufman Global's SLIM-IT® implementation framework provides the overall environment for the continuous projects
and teams to be successful.

In Practice
A Lean Six Sigma implementation plan is often the result of the Analysis and Implementation Design phase. During the Analysis,
we work with you to design the right combination of education and project implementation to create sustainable business
performance. We develop customized training programs designed to create knowledge capital and real-time improvement activities,
as well as coaching to ensure the ongoing knowledge transfer.
Rapid Improvement Events are incorporated often to drive significant
improvement quickly within a structured project. Lean Leadership®
is frequently used to sustain improvements.
