Defects: When products don’t meet specifications or standards and you must get rid of them. In addition to wasting materials, you’re also wasting your money in production costs as well as time. This doesn’t include the fact that if the product got to the customer, and your customer has to return the item, this would create an unhappy customer. All of the preceding adds up to lost revenue.

Overproduction: Producing in big huge batches isn’t a good idea unless those items have already been sold. Since today’s economy changes so quickly (and so do trends), the products you produced might sit on the shelf for ages. This will take up space, materials you might need for something else, and money spent on products you haven’t sold yet. Excess inventory is always a big waste.

Waiting: Any time there is waiting involved between ending one process and the beginning of  another, that is a waste of time. Readjust how the process is conducted so everything runs with a nice flow and without wasting time.

Non-Utilized Talent: The frontline workers are the true heroes, because they recognize process waste since they see it on a daily basis. So instead of the supervisors or leads who don’t do the work making adjustments to the processes, ask those who do. The frontline workers actually know more than most people at the top and are underutilized, and that is a huge waste of money and talent.

Transportation: To eliminate this unnecessary movement of a product or service from one department to another, combine tasks or roles.

Motion: This happens when there is a poorly-designed process, poorly-designed workspace or station, or a situation where tools and equipment must be shared.

Extra Processing: This happens when there are redundancies throughout the production process, procedures, or protocols.

The Six Sigma fascination is a very real thing — you can apply Six Sigma to just about anything. Apply the appropriate information, and you are on your way to excellence! This year has been interesting to say the least — we have gone through some sobering experiences in many facets of daily living. With the stay at home orders in place, many chose to keep learning so when they got back to work, they would come back new and improved, filled with determination. To understand how things really work is a key principle of Six Sigma, and is what knowledge gives you. We picked five blog posts that best illustrate the need to keep learning and constant improvement of thyself, which we know as Kaizen. Take a moment and meditate on the themes of these posts. We feel the few minutes it takes is time well worth taking.
