چکیده
The Lean Toolkit The lean toolkit is comprised of a set of tools that are used in support of the Six Sigma DMAIC process, which is an acronym for define, measure, analyze, improve, and control (Figure 1). While this toolkit is not all inclusive, the set of tools that will be discussed over my next few columns will allow an organization to move through each of the DMAIC functions and facilitate implementation of any lean initiative (Figure 1). Beginning with this column, and after a brief prerequisite definition of both Six Sigma and DMAIC, each edition of this next series of columns will focus, in turn, on one of these DMAIC functions.
