| H company is focus on polyurethanes product and its operation mode is Make To Order with the feature of wide product type and small batch size. To better adapt to the severe market competition, the management innovation is required to improve current operation performance in terms of new product development, quality stability for batch production, batch cycle time and etc.Lean production is a Just In Time way to minimize the waste and inventory to shorten the lead time with low cost. Six sigma is to decrease the process variety with all kinds of statistic tools based on process improvement. There is bottleneck for Lean production and Six sigma when they are applied independently and cannot get the maximized merit. On the purpose of integration between Lean production and Six sigma, according to the study on relevant theory, this paper conclude that it is necessary to implement the integration to get better core competition, enhance the operation efficiency, improve market share and etc. Based on the current management practice in5S and ISO9001, this paper analyzes the risk and profit to implement Lean Six Sigma and explain the operability.During the Lean Six Sigma practice, the operation performance is improved with the process of conducting Lean production, introduction of Six sigma and finally integration of Lean Six Sigma. Lean Six Sigma is not simply to combine the Lean production and Six sigma, the key to succeed is highly attention should be focused on management support, implement step by step, define organization, build team, manage the process, solidify and expand the achievement.Finally this paper depict the details about Lean Six Sigma practice in terms of planning, resource configuration, organization, training, project selection and implementation based on the company operation mode of multiple product kinds and small batch size, and further testify the effectiveness of applying Lean Six Sigma in batch production mode inside process industry. |
