The main approach used in is Lean-Sigma DMAIC:
• DEFINE – Define customer requirements, business case and project
objective
• MEASURE – Measure current key process metrics
• ANALYZE – Analyze process and evaluate potential solutions
• IMPROVE – Implement selected solutions
• CONTROL – Establish systems and new process standards to sustain
gains

DEFINE
What do we want to know from the DEFINE Phase?
– How to define the scope of the project to ensure all involved
understand what is included and not included in the project .
– How to identify specific metrics and goals that you want to achieve.
– How to Outline the Process & Identify who the Customers and
Stakeholders are to ensure they are included in any changes. Support
any communication needed to gain buy in from those identified.
– How to develop a more detailed understanding of the current process,
so everyone involved understand the end to end process flow.

The charter Objective clearly states the output (Y) and
the Problem Statement describes the problems but it
will NOT state solutions for the inputs (Xs -influencing factors)
because you need to determine those in Measure/Analyze

Voice of the Customer
| LS Awareness 2Hr June
2014 | Confidential
20
The term “Voice of the Customer” (VOC) is used to describe
customers’ needs and their perceptions of your product or
process.
Voice of the Business
The term “Voice of the Business” (VOB) is used to
describe your business’ needs in creating the product or
executing the process.
Voice of the Process
The term “Voice of the Process” (VOP) is used to describe
the current state of the process; how is the process
performing. Is it capable of meeting customer needs?
Process Mapping
| LS Awareness 2Hr June
2014 | Confidential
21
• To define the process scope including
start and end points, and steps included
• Visually depicts variation or complexity
in the process
• May also use “swim lanes” to identify the
key stakeholders involved in the process
• A foundational tool that can be used to
capture process observations
• A visual tool used to define a process,
current or future state
• May be used at high level or detailed
level to improve process
understanding
Objective or Purpose
• Process Maps may be used in various
phases
 To Define the current state
process (Define)
 To Document measurements,
wastes, and rework
(Measure/Analyze)
 To Describe the desired future

MEASURE
What do we want to know from the MEASURE Phase?
– How to use a Data Collection Plan to Collect Data on the Y
(output) and key Xs (inputs) and understand where data can
collected from. Understand the need to support and drive
adherence to collection plans.
– How to understand and use a measurement system to identify
areas for improvement.
– How to use the data collected to explain the current state, by use
of different graphical tools.
| LS Awareness 2Hr June

23
Operational Definitions
| LS Awareness 2Hr June
2014 | Confidential
24
 Operational Definition = a clear,
understandable description of what’s
to be observed and measured, so that
different people taking or interpreting
the data will do so consistently
 An Operational Definition should
address:
– How to define the measure
– What the measure includes, and
what it doesn’t include
– How to take the measurement
(procedure)
“Continuous” vs. Attribute” Measures
• Continuous Measures - factors that can be measured on
an infinitely-divisible scale,
– e.g. weight, temperature, height, time, speed, decibels,
budget-versus-actual (dollars)
– Often called “variable” measures
• Attribute Measures – everything else!
– Often called “discrete” measures
– Pass/Fail; Good/Bad
| LS Awareness 2Hr June
2014 | Confidential
25
Data Collection Steps
1. Identify metrics and establish clear Operational Definition
2. Define stratification categories (data tags) - visualize how you may want to
analyze the data
– By shift, operator, day, month, etc.
3. Create a data collection plan
– Who, what, where, when, how
4. Design the data collection form and tracking system
– Check sheets, table, concentration diagram
5. Provide training for completing the form
6. Collect the Data

Pareto
| LS Awareness 2Hr June
2014 | Confidential
27
• The Pareto principle (also known as
the 80–20 rule) states that, for many
events, roughly 80% of the effects
come from 20% of the causes.
• In the Measure, Analyze, or Improve
phases to prioritize high impact
defects, issues, or other key input
categories
• To rank root causes or inputs in order
of frequency
• To identify the 20% of inputs that drive
80% of the output
• To focus the team on the vital few
improvement opportunities

ANALYZE
What do we want to know from the ANALYZE Phase?
– How to identify the Wastes and non-value added
activities in a process to better able the team to
develop an action plan and set of improvements.
– How to understand root causes of our process
problems and how to eliminate the gap between
existing performance and the desired level of
performance .

What is Value?
| LS Awareness 2Hr June
2014 | Confidential
33
Value Add = Good
Non-Value Add = Bad
Business Value Add = Required
Activities that directly contribute to satisfying customer
requirements. Consumers would be happy to pay for.
Changes fit, form, function. Focus: Preserve and enhance!
Activities that do not directly contribute to satisfying
customer requirements. The customer would not be
happy to pay for. Focus: Eliminate where possible.
Business Value Added: Non value adding activities which are
necessary in the current environment. (i.e. legal activities, SoX,
FDA, reconciliations, approvals, inspections, etc…)
Focus: Evaluate and streamline or enhance where possible.

phase after you have completed
measure

waste and non-value adding activities
• May be used to classify sources of
waste observed in any process.
