PT. Maspion III is a company engaged in household appliances products, In carrying out its production process activities PT. Maspion III experiences various problems. Clarisa products are products that are found reject or defective. because it is caused by suboptimal quality control. This can be seen from the number of reject or defect products. This study aims to determine the type of waste that causes defects, determine the capability of the production process, and provide recommendations for improvement in the production process. The research methods are quantitative and qualitative approaches to lean six sigma and yang and FMECA (Failure Mode and Effect Criticality Analysis). lean six sigma is a systemic and systematic approach to identifying and eliminating waste. FMECA (Failure Mode and Effect Criticality Analysis) is used as a reference for companies to take corrective actions to identify product critical points in the production process. The results obtained are waste that affects product quality, namely waste defect, there are two highest defects, namely floi with a cumulative presentation of 51% and a breakage of 65%. In August the capability process is 1.5012, In September the capability process is 1.6818, In October the capability process is 1.3727, In November the capability process is 1.4275, In December the capability process is 1.4366

Negative Impacts

Recently, lean production has become a major focus of researchers and industry. The zero waste concept holds an important role in the production process. The aim of this concept is to reduce waste and to increase productivity. Wastes have significant negative impacts to the company, one of which is the decrease of company profit. This research aimed to integrate the Lean Six Sigma method with Teorya Resheniya Izobreatatelskikh Zadatch (TRIZ) in order to reduce wastes. These two methods were applied with Define-Measure-Analyze-Improve-Control(DMAIC) methodology. A case study was conducted in a wood manufacturing company. The results of the study suggest that the application of the two methods can significantly reduce the Non-value Added (NVA).

Six Sigma Approach

An effective and efficient order fulfillment system is absolutely needed to achieve customer satisfaction. However, wastes which occur in production process would hamper toward its progress, that it is necessary to do an efficiency effort by implementing a concept of Lean Six Sigma which is a combination of lean method and six sigma method. Lean method improves process flow and reduce wastes meanwhile six sigma method improve process capability and reduce variations. In measure phase, known that the most significant waste in production process of sugar at PT. PG. Krebet Baru were waiting, Inventory and Defect.Based on that fact, this research was very necessary to be executed to understand the causes of wastes and to make an improvement plan by using Lean Six sigma approach and Analysis of Ishikawa diagram. From analze phase, it is known that the causes of wastes were (a) The split of job description in inspection session is not focus,(b) The filter in chycling mchinedidn't work well caused by unslilled operators, ( c) the number of crushing machine is insufficient so there were material piles. The purposed improvement plans are are (a) Review and improve job description especially in inspection and weighing section, (b) Give additional training to operator who work in spinning section, (c) Machines and tool inspection before starting the production process so it is going to work well.

Purpose: This study aimed at implementing lean six sigma to evaluate the productivity and manufacturing waste in the production line of a paper companyMethodology/Approach: The study is a case study in nature. The method illustrates how lean six sigma (LSS) is used to evaluate the existing production process in a paper production company with focus on productivity and manufacturing waste. The study considered a real-time problem of customer’s dissatisfaction. The gathered data is based on machine functionality (up time, down time and cycle time); materials and labour flow at every process stages of the production line. The optimization of the production process was based on lean tools like value stream mapping, process cycle efficiency, Kaizen, 5S and pareto chartFindings: Based on lean six sigma application, it was discovered that the present production performance was below standard and more manufacturing wastes were generated. The present productivity and manufacturing wastes are reported as low process cycle efficiency (23.4 %), low takt time (4.11 sec), high lead time (43200sec), high number of products not conforming to six sigma values, high down time (32.64 %) and excess labour flow (33). After the implementation of the lean six sigma tools for certain period of time, there are lots of improvements in the production line in terms of all the parameters considered.Research Limitation/ Implications:  The study has demonstrated an application of lean six sigma in the case of solving real-time problems of productivity and manufacturing wastes which have a direct implication on customer’s satisfaction. The lesson learned and implications presented can still be further modeled using some lean based software for validityOriginality/Value: The study has contributed to the body of knowledge in the field of LSS with focus to process based manufacturing, unlike most literature in the field concentrate more on discrete based manufacturing.

Goal Clarity

Lean Six Sigma (LSS) is a method that helps an organization to maximize profit and minimize cost. One of the essential factors for a successful LSS project is the availability of employees who are willing to engage. Employee engagement brings about a strong sense of belonging and high productivity. Consequently, engaged employees will work harder to achieve the mission of the organization. This paper discusses a case of LSS project with a low level of employee engagement. As a result, LSS was less likely helpful in sustaining company’s performance. The purpose of this study is to identify factors that contribute to employee engagement in LSS practices. Review of the relevant literature suggests four variables, which include goal clarity, management support and trust, knowledge sharing and transfer, and teamwork. The questionnaire survey applied census in collecting feedback from 80 respondents. Statistical analysis results indicate that goal clarity, management support, and trust are significant to employee engagement. However, knowledge sharing and transfer as well as teamwork are not substantial. It is recommended for the organization to give attention to all the four factors. This paper extended understandings on critical inputs to a successful implementation of LSS for sustainable company’s performance and growth. Keywords: Lean Six Sigma, Employee Engagement, Goal Clarity, Management Support and Trust, Teamwork, Knowledge Sharing.
