INTRODUCTION

In this reading tells us about a series of tools that implements an organization called Six

Sigma to put into practice in the companies and to satisfy the needs of the clients of a

company, in this reading we talk about a Lean thinking and explain to us that it coexists its

modality and how to implement it, in the same way it shows the theory of the restrictions as

an improvement in the system to know that it is better for the processes.

OBJECTIVES

1.Know what you do and what is SIX SIGMA and what does she do for an organization.

2.Know what is the thought of lean and how you can implement

3.What is the approach and what is the theory of Restrictions

EVIDENCIA 1: WORKSHOP "SIX SIGMA, LEAN AND THE THEORY OF

CONSTRAINTS"

1.After reading the above mentioned document, answer the following comprehension

questions.

a)What does Six Sigma do for an organization? How does it work?

Six Sigma states that by focusing on the reduction of variation, it will solve the process and

business problems, using a set of statistical tools to understand the fluctuation of a process,

the administration can begin to predict the Expected result of that process. If the result is

unsatisfactory, you can use associated tools to better understand the elements that influence

that process. Through a rigid and structured research methodology, the elements of the SEN

process understand more fully. works with five steps define, measure, analyze, improve

and control

1. Define: Begin by defining the process who are the customers and what are their

problems.

2. Measurement: The approach measures the process, categorizing the characteristics,

verifying the measurement systems and collecting the data.

3. Analyze: Once the data is compiled, we analyze and become important information for

the identification of the problem.

4. Improve: Solutions are developed to the problem and changes are made in the process.1.

5. Control: It is done at a desired level and expendable, it is put under control this last part

is the sustained part of the Six Sigma.

b) What is Lean thinking? What are the five essential steps?

LEAN's thinking focuses on waste disposal that is defined as something that is not

necessary to produce the product or service, a common measure, the amount of time the

product is actually being worked on, this approach It manifests itself in an emphasis on

flow. The five essential steps in Lean are:

1. Identifies which features create value.

2. Identify the sequence of activities called current value.

3. Make activities flow.

4. Let the customer pull the product or service through the process.

5. Perfect the process.

c)What is the focus of the Theory of Constraints? How does it improve a system?

The restriction theory focuses on improving the system that is defined as a series of inter-

dependent processes. An analogy for a chain system a group of links working together

towards a general objective, the restriction is a weak link and the performance of the whole

chain is limited by the strength of the weak link, in manufacturing processes everything

slows down that It consists of five steps:

1. Identify the Restriction

2. Take advantage of the

3 Constraint Subordinate other processes to the Restriction

4.Raise the Restriction

System-wide performance is re-evaluated for the new constraint process; Exploiting the

process, subordinating and evaluating. By focusing on the restrictions, this methodology

produces positive effects on the flow time of the product or service through the system.

Reducing waste in the restriction increases performance and improves time, decreases

variation and improves quality, this approach does not require an intimate knowledge of

data analysis or a large number of people who understand the elements of System, only a

few people with the power to change things are all that is needed.

d)Based on your project, choose one of the methodologies for your organization and clearly

support why you chose it

Lean identifies the value and the determination of the characteristics at the internal level

and external points of the client, the terms of how the specific product meets the

requirements and needs of the clients at a specific moment are valued. The necessary

operations are defined as a prerequisite for other activities being an essential part of the

company. Lean focuses on eliminating waste and improving flow, the product for less time

in the process, reducing the chances of damage. As the company observes all value flow

activities, the system constraint is removed and performance is improved.

THE LEAN THINKING METHOD: FOR ASOCTRUH COMPANY

At ASOCTRUH lean thinking is implemented, improving processes that exert speed and

improvement.

improving self-criticism and identifying for improvement in the following aspects through

lean thinking.

1. OVERPRODUCTION: produce only what the customer demands.

2. TRANSPORT: Do not accumulate products

3. MOVEMENTS: Lack of planning in the processes, making employees carry out

activities without having the need.

5. DEFECTS: Offer products in poor condition.

6. HUMAN TALENT: Inadequate assignment of tasks for workers.

CONCLUSION

technological tools are necessary to reduce errors and for those customer needs they are

satisfied, we who have tools and even so there are companies and organizations that

specialize in analyzing all these types of aspects that can be improved in processes, this

makes make the company more competitive.
