[quote=Anonymous]You can take a Six Sigma class to learn the basics and implement different strategies. It would be more cost beneficial than hiring a consultant. From my experience its worth it in certain settings, like manufacturing. 15-18 years ago after the company I worked for (Caterpillar) successfully implemented it in our manufacturing facilities, there was a short lived push to implement it in corporate departments. I was in legal. The strategies used to streamline the process in a corporate legal environment simply added new processes. Yes there are some bottle necks in something like contract review/negotiation/approvals, but a new process to manage them simply made things more complex instead of streamlining. However, we all individually learned the concepts of Six Sigma, and were able to apply the concepts to our workload on our own.[/quote]
