Improvement Techniques and Control Tools

Course Overview

This course introduces you to the processes and tools to implement the improvement strategies and then sustain them by controlling your process as per the implemented solutions. Based on the analysis from the previous phases of the define, measure, analyze, improve, and control (DMAIC) framework, you will learn to evaluate the potential solutions and select the most effective ones to bring improvement to your process. This may involve changing the process, introducing new tools or technologies, or implementing best practices. The course also delves into the importance of continuously refining and optimizing the process to maximize the impact of the improvement solutions. Further, you will learn how to establish control measures to monitor the process and ensure it stays on track after the improvements are implemented. Finally, the course delves into the criticality of sustaining the implemented improvements for long-term benefit. You will learn how to implement mechanisms to sustain the improvements, such as conducting employee training, regular measurement practices, periodic reviews, and continuous improvement efforts.
