Let's talk about lean improvement or six sigma improvement first.

Any improvement process of an enterprise needs to be gradual, and we should not rush to achieve success and launch too many rectification activities at once. Do you choose lean production or six sigma? Facts have proved that the combination of these two methods is much better than using only one of them. This is a classic case of "1+ 1 > 2". But considering the problem of funds, the two methods do not have to be carried out at the same time. If conditions permit, lean can take the lead.

Benjamin Franklin, a famous scholar, once said: A penny saved is a penny earned. This suggestion has been sought after by many enterprise managers, who have taken this criterion as the direction of managing enterprises and factories. Many enterprise managers will first consider two aspects when considering how to save more money for enterprises:

(1) streamlining;

② improvement. In fact, these are two very famous and practical management methods in enterprise management-lean production and six sigma. Considering the problem of funds, most enterprises will choose one of two ways to establish and implement the project.

Lean production pays attention to very subtle aspects. This management mode is to change the system structure, personnel organization, operation mode and the relationship between market supply and demand, so that the production system can quickly adapt to the changing needs of users, and all useless and redundant things in the production process can be streamlined, and finally all aspects of production, including market supply and marketing, can achieve the best results.

Lean production focuses on solving the obvious problems in the production process, solving these problems through reasonable schemes and standardizing the process, thus shortening the lead time and reducing the inventory at the production site. As a very important implementation process of the principle of "saving money", lean production is a management method strongly recommended by enterprise managers, which can directly save time and manpower, and then save money through simple methods. After solving some simple problems with lean production, enterprise managers often find that if they continue to use lean production, it seems that they cannot get more benefits. At this time, six Sigma methods appear in black and pink! The premise is very important. In the lean first strategy, simple process problems no longer exist. In the standardized process, it is easier for enterprises to find and confirm some important technical errors, product defects, process loopholes and other issues, and Six Sigma can provide a set of professional quality improvement methods and statistical tools to help enterprises improve in these areas.

In the process of enterprise improvement, letting lean take the lead, solving simple problems in the process and standardizing the process can not only help enterprises save money they shouldn't spend, but also save a considerable management fee for the next six suitable improvements.
