DEPLOYING EXCELLENCE:
Achieving Continual Process Improvement and Profitable Growth through Operational Effectiveness
Increased budget cuts and limits on funding have required defense institutions to strategize on how best to manage resources and maximize dollars to provide the best operational support to soldiers. By initiating Continuous Process Improvement (CPI) initiatives using Lean, Six Sigma (LSS) and Theory of Constraints, military organizations are enabling a culture of operational innovation that continuously listens to customers, questions the status quo, and improves results through fact-based decisions.
Through LSS methodologies, the military enterprise is enhanced and transformed by eliminating waste, streamlining flow, minimizing cycle time and improving reliability and availability. The Lean Six Sigma for Military Forum will bring together military delegates leading CPI initiatives and LSS experts together to share best practices.
