Abstract
In the present day competitive world practitioners and researchers are attempting to integrate different quality and management concepts to achieve profitability and sustain in the market. One such integration is Lean Six Sigma methodology. Similar to this effort, few researchers have integrated Lean Six Sigma methodology with the ISO 9001 QMS standard. There does not exist any noteworthy attempt made by the researchers to integrate Lean Six Sigma methodology with the ISO 9001:2015 QMS. In this paper this research gap is explored and revealed by conducting literature review. Further, the requirements of Lean Six Sigma methodology are explored and a roadmap for implementation of Lean Six Sigma methodology through ISO 9001:2015 QMS has been contributed in this research paper.
期刊介绍:
In today''s complex, global economy, the operations function is critical to business success. All organisations have an operations function that helps them run efficiently and productively. IJAOM is a peer reviewed international journal which publishes original, high-quality and cutting-edge research on all aspects of advanced operations management, aiming at bridging the gap between theory and practice with applications analysing the real situation. Topics covered include -Global operations management, lean/agile operations -Knowledge, service, demand and R&D management -Scheduling, sequencing, vehicle routing -Inventory management and co-ordination -Multi-objective optimisation; TQM and six sigma practices -Business process outsourcing -Aggregate planning, ERP, JIT -Performance measurement -Cultural, environmental and implementation issues -Logistics service performance, supply chain management -Product planning, lot sizing, MPS, MRP -Repetitive manufacturing and service operations -Project and technology management, network management -Modelling and simulation, decision analysis/making -Comparison of operations management in different countries
