Abstract
The rigorous Six Sigma process combined with the speed and agility of Lean Six Sigma has produced definitive solutions for better, faster and cheaper business processes. As Green Six Sigma is based on FIT SIGMA, any reference to FIT SIGMA will also apply to Green Six Sigma. The customisation of the improvement programme to identify the right fit appropriate to the type and size of operation is determined by a formalised initial assessment process. The key cornerstone of FIT Σ methodology is ‘Sigma (Σ) for improvement and integration’. While the contents of Six Sigma or Lean Sigma approaches vary according to a company, a consultant or an author, the common features with FIT Σ are appropriate Six Sigma tools, appropriate DMAIC methodology, learning deployment, project plan and delivery, and shift from variation (σ) to integration (Σ). The sustainability of FIT SIGMA project outcomes is comparable to the stability of a process.
