How to adapt Lean Six Sigma to improve performance of SMEs of manufacturing sector

Abstract

The main objective of the paper is to present the utilitarian effect of the adaptation of the Lean Six Sigma concept and its implementation in the small and medium-sized enterprises of the manufacturing sector. The original methodology was developed on the basis of research carried out in the Polish and French enterprises from 2009 to 2011. In the case of SMEs, the use of the concept of Lean Six Sigma is much less common, as evidenced by the scarce literature on the subject. Analysis of the cases of implementation of Lean Six Sigma in the SMEs of the manufacturing sector reveals the common barriers faced by these companies using this concept. This paper presents a framework of the methodology proposed as well as a case study of its application in the SMEs sector.
