Just like Lean Six Sigma, education is focused on obtaining the voice of the customer. These customers can be students, parents, taxpayers, or even state & federal regulators. Lean Six Sigma is about improving the processes within the education sector to meet customer needs. Many school districts around the world face the difficult decision of cutting programs or freeing up their budgets. Applying Lean Six Sigma allows schools to reduce waste and inefficiencies, freeing up some of that money for other uses.
There are many ways an individual school, school district, or college can benefit from applying Six Sigma. Waste and inefficiencies can be found in most departments, including facilities management and vendor management. Energy management and technology integration are also popular area's for cost reductions. Applying Lean principles can help you locate and eliminate these costs.
