ABSTRACT

Most Lean Six Sigma practitioners learn and become proficient in DMAIC. Frequently practitioners eventually face projects where they or others struggle to apply DMAIC without recognizing why. The reason is the project is best approached as a Design for LSS project. Even when trained, practitioners seem intimidated by DFLSS projects. Learn why DFLSS can be easier to use than DMAIC and how you can quickly apply or train/coach others to do DFLSS using their DMAIC knowledge and tool set. This session will help you recognize when it is best to apply DFLSS, two common approaches to DFLSS, and key differences with DMAIC. Reinforce learning through an example.
