Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control
The Lean Six Sigma methodology was developed by Motorola® in 1985 to improve manufacturing and process outputs by using thick data to remove defects, variability, and waste in all aspects of operations. Lean Six Sigma is a surprisingly common-sense approach to operational efficiency and lends itself well to many aspects of the lab business. LMC assists clients in walking through the five DMAIC phases:
- Define the problem (how to satisfy customers by meeting their requirements)
- Measure and develop schematics for current lab processes to collect accurate data
- Analyze data to investigate the source of problems and identify causes
- Improve operations and processes by implementing solutions to the causes of problems
- Continue data collection to sustain (and sometimes improve) the results of solutions
