This is a strategic audit for organizations that have an existing LSS program. It assesses the maturity level of the program by evaluating leadership commitment, project selection processes, training effectiveness, and the overall impact on the business. It provides a roadmap for advancing a program from its foundational stage to a state of operational excellence.

This is a core Lean service that audits an entire value stream, from raw materials to final customer delivery. The audit identifies and quantifies the seven wastes (e.g., waiting, overproduction, defects) to find the most significant opportunities for process improvement, leading to dramatic reductions in lead time and cost.

This service ensures that a company's LSS projects are not just busy work but are directly tied to high-level business goals. The audit examines the project portfolio to verify that each project's objectives and financial benefits align with the company's strategic priorities, such as increased revenue, improved customer satisfaction, or enhanced safety.

This is a data-driven, Six Sigma-specific audit. It reviews existing process data and control charts to ensure they are being used correctly to monitor and control process performance. The audit provides a professional opinion on process stability and capability, which is essential for maintaining product quality and consistency.

A proactive service designed to quickly assess the health of a specific business process. This "mini-audit" uses key metrics and stakeholder interviews to identify bottlenecks, inefficiencies, and risks before they lead to a major problem.

Many organizations have KPIs, but struggle to trust the data. This audit service verifies the integrity of the data behind the KPIs. By confirming that data collection is accurate and the metrics are truly reflective of process performance, you build confidence in the client's ability to make data-driven decisions.

A common failure for LSS projects is the loss of gains over time. This audit reviews the control plans put in place by project teams to ensure they are effective and being followed. It confirms that the improvements are sustainable and that the organization has the systems in place to prevent backsliding.

An effective LSS culture is built on a strong training program. This service audits the client's internal LSS training and mentorship program to assess its effectiveness. The audit looks at training content, mentor-to-mentee ratios, and project completion rates to provide recommendations for building a more robust internal LSS capability.

This audit reviews a company's past and present LSS project portfolio. It assesses the financial ROI (Return on Investment) of completed projects, verifies the reported savings, and identifies opportunities to apply lessons learned to future projects. This service helps clients understand the real value of their LSS investment.
