Common Sense vs Common Science

As you are probably aware, most companies "hit the wall" in terms of the problems they can solve using common sense and trial and error. This usually happens at about 3-Sigma (1-2-3% defects). It's easy when there are big, obvious problems with big obvious causes, but as you eliminate these you'll find that you still have some nagging problems with seemingly invisible causes. This is when you need some common science. You need to use a systematic method like Lean Six Sigma.

Time after time, I have found that as little as 4% of your business produces over half of the waste and rework. Through laser-focused improvement, you can cut these costs of waste and rework by 20-35% of every dollar spent! And every dollar you save flows straight to your bottom line.

Inside every business is a hidden gold mine — the mother lode where you can mine tremendous improvements in productivity and profitability. In our Lean Six Sigma Simplified Training System, you'll learn how to:

1. Laser-focus your Six Sigma efforts to maximize your immediate results while minimizing your start-up costs;
   
2. Implement Six Sigma successfully using the secrets of "diffusion" to "crawl-walk-run" your way to success.
   
3. Improve training effectiveness and reduce costs using JIT training;
   
4. Double your speed by shifting your attention from people to the product
5. Double your quality by finding the mother lode (the hidden 4% causing over 50% of the waste and rework.)
   

Double Your Profits!

Most people think that you have to double your marketshare to double your profits, but they fail to consider that if your profit margins are 10-15-20% that you can double your profits by reducing your costs by 10-15-20%.

As I'm sure you know, most companies have hidden "fix-it" factories working overtime to prevent poor quality products from finding their way to the customer. These fix-it factories eat up 25-40% of your total costs in a 3-Sigma business. And any business that relies on common sense, gut-feel, and trial-and-error to resolve these difficulties rarely rises above a 3-Sigma level.

Here's the good news: any 3-Sigma business can rise to a 5 sigma level in 18-24 months and recover 10-15-20% of your total costs along the way. Those savings translate into pure profit! How can you do it? By laser-focus on reducing delay and defects, and increasing speed and quality which results in lower costs, higher profits, and increased marketshare.
