Six Sigma Lean Manufacturing

At St. Onge, we utilize six sigma lean manufacturing processes to drive operational improvements and cost reductions for the clients we serve. Lean manufacturing is based on a just-in-time (JIT) material delivery concept that is focused on eliminating waste-producing activities throughout the manufacturing process.

Six sigma focuses on process improvements to drive meaningful change. Six sigma lean combines the benefits of both, capitalizing on the speed and efficiency gains of lean and the quality benefits of six sigma to crate an environment that reduces cost, inventory and lead time.

As independent consultants, we’re not bound to any specific solutions provider or technology vendor, so we bring an objective evaluation customized to your business needs. As supply chain experts, we’re focused on looking at the total picture to help you achieve success now and into the future.

If you’re looking for a partner who can deliver optimized design for manufacturing and assembly facilities, look no further. Reach out to see how St. Onge can work for your business.
