What is Lean 6 Sigma?... and its affect on the price of Garri?

Lean Six Sigma is a methodology that relies on a collaborative team effort to improve performance by systematically removing waste and reducing variation.

It combines lean manufacturing/lean enterprise and Six Sigma to eliminate the eight kinds of waste: Defects, Overproduction, Waiting, Non-Utilized Talent, Transportation, Inventory, Motion, and Extra-Processing.

⚡ Lean
Lean is about removing anything that does not add value to the customer or patient. Its core purpose is flow — making processes faster, smoother, and simpler
🎯 Six Sigma
Six Sigma is about reducing variation and preventing defects. Its core purpose is consistency — making processes predictable and reliable.
