Program
Overview and Format
Elimination of waste and improved process capabilities are
common goals of both Lean and Six Sigma. The integration of
these systems provides a process improvement methodology that
addresses the responsiveness and capability of the entire
value delivery system. Through aggressive identification and
elimination of non-value added activities (waste), optimum
value flow is achieved. Cycle times are reduced and defects
removed. Travel distances, inventories, set-up times, equipment
downtime, scrap, rework, and other wastes of the "hidden
factory” are attacked. Lean focuses on delivered value
from a customer's prospective through the entire supply chain.
Six Sigma is a proven, statistically based problem solving
process that generates superior data driven solutions, productive
yields, and dramatic bottom-line results. The objectives of
our Lean Six Sigma training are to teach organizations to:
• Reduce time to market for new products
• Reduce delivery time
• Reduce waste and costs
• Reduce work-in-process inventory
• Reduce variability
• Increase profits and customer satisfaction
The Green Belt Lean Six Sigma Program consists of the following
components and is offered to teams from participating organizations:
1. Management Overview
2. Greenbelt Training – 12 Days
3. Project
4. Certification

Green Belt Project
Each Green Belt participant is required to complete a project
of significant value to his/her organization. These projects
will require the completion of a Project Charter describing
the project and detailing the objectives, team members, costs,
and timeline. The Charter must be approved by both the organization’s
management as well as RIT. During the training period the
participants will present progress reports. Pairs of participants
from the same organization may be involved with the same project.
