Thank you for the generous use of your material.:thanx: :applause: :applause:
I agree it presents a good basic overview of 6S for any non-quality trained professional and may open the eyes of some who have been trained in basic Quality tools and techniques.

:topic: Without detracting in any way from the presentation, which stands on its own, I do wish you could additionally address the implementation and continuing focus or continued applicability of 6S personnel, especially MBB and BB in smaller organizations, where there are only a very few processes involved which comprise the major focus and output of the organization.

Giant organizations like Motorola and GE have hundreds or thousands of different products and processes to tweak for maximum efficiency and therefore a continuing workload for the 6S teams.

What happens in a steel mill, say, which makes only hot rolled steel plates for sale to other fabricators? Where do the MBB and BB go when they have tweaked the two or three sub processes of melting ore and scrap, then rolling it out into finished product? (Even including supply chain logistics, there has to be a point where the processes reach maximum efficiency within a relatively short period.)

Does the organization do better to hire "gypsy" 6S consultants, who move on when the plant reaches an efficient mode? Or, does it hire the 6S guys full-time and then terminate them 1 or 2 years down the road? What do the 6S guys do then?

Is there a distinct difference between 6S folk and normal Quality folk or can regular Quality folk just add 6S methodology to their regular tool box and keep their normal quality job?

Many folks come to us in the Cove and ask the questions,
  • "What should I study?
  • What will get me the best chance of remaining employed over the long term?
  • Do only giant companies make adequate use of 6S or is there a permanent place for a 6S practitioner in a smaller company?"
What shall we answer?

My best stab at it.

Hi Wes,
I do not claim to know it all for sure, but I am always willing to share my ideas with an open mind. First of all the Six Sigma Introduction video I made was tailored for my specific needs, every company has got to "in my mind" develop a method of incorporating the power of Six Sigma in a way that makes good business sense for them. I totally agree with your comments. I am sure there are hundreds of other situations that makes implementing some off the shelf Six-Sigma program irresponsible. I am developing what I believe is a good system for small companies that want the power of Six Sigma however, can not afford the extra resources, training costs, learning curve time, etc... It should be available in a few weeks. Let me know if you would like a demonstration via Webex. I would love to get your opinion.
Best Regards,
Thomas Dunn

Definitely! I often find myself defending 6S against rants and raves when I, myself, have a lot of reservations about the way many ill-prepared 6S advocates blunder about and declare 6S a panacea for every ill an organization can encounter. Especially when they neglect homage to the Shewarts, Demings, Crosbys, Jurans who laid much of the groundwork for 6S.

Six Sigma System for Small Companies (Design Review)

Hi Wes,
Thank you Wes for allowing me the opportunity to demonstrate my "almost complete" Six Sigma System for small manufacturers. I believe you could offer some very constructive critasism as I begin to add the finnishing touches.

I will schedule a Webex meeting for 1:00PM today. If you can not make a 1:00 just flag me an email suggesting a time that best works for you.

The link to the meeting is as follows:

I look forward to exchanging knowledge,

Does anyone here have anything they can share here like a powerpoint file or such? Or is there something already posted here that I missed when I looked?

You mention authorization to share the video. Is this an online video or is it a file that can be downloaded and used in-house?

Hi Marc and Walton!
Here is one more. We often forget to search for. What works for me and I have used, is to filter for file type, ex. PPT, and site, I usually use edu.
I don't know if it's legal, but I hope that it will work for long time, for people, they can't afford a second or third scool, but they are willing to learn.
Good luck.
György
