ADOPTION OF LEAN SIX SIGMA AND THEIR TOOLS IN CONSTRUCTION ASPECT

Lean six sigma is one of the systematic and chronological order approach to be focused for the greater the performance of the work , removal of unusual wastages and eliminating the defected work. The lean six sigma concept involves the ‘5’ principles. The primary and preliminary objective of these principles is to obtain the maximum benefits with optimized economy. It consists of processes such as identification of problem , elimination of the variations or defected work and then adopt a clear communication plan within the workers for the free flow of the creative ideas . Then initiate the entire frame work into a flexible and controlled process. By use of lean six sigma any kind of problems can be analysed in an to produce a good output. They can derive maximum benefits such as adequate satisfaction of work execution with neglected defects and complete work with minimum cost. . So that we can increase the profits and productivity and performance of the work. The tools involved in the lean six sigma are 5s system , value stream mapping, kai-zen and voice of the customer. So each and every tool has their own advantages to approach the problem and provide a solution. The term lean is adequately adopted in bushiness but as in case of construction lean can be adopted as productivity tool, so that they can improve the work performance and improve the efficiency. The lean can be adopted small sized projects with little amount of time frame.
