Round Table Details

Lean Six Sigma (LSS) produces real results in difficult economic times by uncovering process waste, reducing non-value adding activity, and increasing productivity. Business process management (BPM) and service-oriented architectures (SOAs) combine with LSS to accelerate improvements and results. At the same time, this combination increases organizational flexibility and technology-enabled responsiveness, key to positioning the company for growth as the economy improves.

Process improvement experts are uniquely positioned to play a key role in this transformation as they are able to leverage their business and technical knowledge in combination with the tools and techniques of Lean Six Sigma. During the session we will discuss how best to accomplish this and introduce a BPM-based improvement framework. Additional topics include how to use data to select the right improvement project, and how BPM and SOA support the Lean Six Sigma improvement cycle. Examples will be provided along with recomendations for getting started.

Learning Objectives:

Understand the basics of Lean Six Sigma and how BPM and SOA support the Lean Six Sigma methodology
Understand how to use data to select the right improvement project
Understand how Business Analysts can play a role in accelerating results
