Design for Six Sigma
(DFSS) Training Form
OVERVIEW
Whether involved in manufacturing, development, or transactional processes,
attendees receive exclusive Smarter Solutions' Integrated Enterprise
Excellence (IEE) instruction in approaching and resolving their organization’s
process, product, and IT system design issues. One week of intimate
classroom instruction provides students with the latest techniques
in going beyond the traditional Design for Six Sigma or Design for
Lean Six Sigma (DFSS or DFLSS). This course ultimately equips students
with the customer-driven skill set and system for their company to
benefit from the design and development of IT systems, products, and
processes. This course equips attendees with the processes and tools
to make their design processes more efficient and effective.
MASTER
THE TOOLS
Attendees will how to use the IEE DMADV (Define, Measure, Analyze,
Design, Verify) system for both transactional and manufacturing organizations
so that improvement is experienced in the overall enterprise. Much
of the course will involve exercises that help students create a system
to capture the true Voice of the Customer (VOC). The course will additionally
provide tools that help the student improve their design, optimization,
and verification processes. Application of these tools help organizations
improve their design performance so that there is less design rework
and increased customer satisfaction. Each tool is introduced, and
then put into practice using real business data examples. A discussion
of real world applicability concludes the exercise.
ONLY ONE COURSE CURRICULUM
With the blending of Lean and Six Sigma along with other improvement
tools, a holistic approach to improvement is used. These skills provide
the student with the ability to succeed in any business segment. Why
focus only on manufacturing, transactional, or other subset of the
tools, when every organization has aspects of each type? Manufacturing
organizations have opportunities for improvement in HR, sales, and
procurement, which are transactional work, while transactional organizations
produce papers and reports and manage inventories, which are analogous
to manufacturing processes. Every student in the IEE system is provided
with the skills to be successful in all business areas.
TOOLBOX
REWARDS
This training is designed for students who will be conducting Lean
Six Sigma type design projects of processes, products, or IT systems.
Attendees will focus on evaluating the organizational impact, not
just the project savings. At the end of the course, attendees understand,
comprehend, and perform the following:
- Recognize when
an improvement effort does not meet the organizational requirements
and a new process, product, or IT system design is the best option;
- Fully understand
the process required to gain the voice of the customer;
- Effectively
translate customer requirements into design requirements and to
determine their impact on manufacturability or processability;
- Select the
right tools to design and test a new process, product, or IT project;
- Be able to
recognize and use advanced improvement tools when beneficial.
