Lean is all about Working Smarter Not Harder. This methodology helps organizations reduce waste, errors, cycle times and non-value-added activities, resulting in a more agile, customer-responsive and cost-effective processes. It is a way of optimizing the people, resources, effort, and energy of your organization toward creating value for your customer.

Six Sigma uses the DMAIC methodology to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of processes though the collection and analysis of data. This is achieved by a dramatic increase in customer focus, establishment of near error-free processes, products, and services, with a goal of maximizing value-creation.

These two approaches work in perfect harmony with each other and will provide you with a more robust toolbox to pull from when you are working on your projects.
