Define 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 NA (Lean) Correct Self Assessment NA (6 Sigma) DEFINE SELF ASSESSMENT Project addresses a clear problem description or business opportunity. Problem description has been clearly defined. Goals have been clearly defined and are measurable. VOC and VOB have been clearly defined and requirements are understood. Scope of the project has been clearly delineated. Key stakeholders have been identified. Relevant CTQ(s) have been selected and a CTQ-flowdown has been constructed. High level process description has been made (e. g. SIPOC). Champion: - Controller*: - Date, Name & Signature © LSSA 2019 9

MEASURE 6 – SET IMPROVEMENT GOALS Improvement goals • … Conclusion: © LSSA 2019 12

Measure 1 2 3 4 5 6 The collected data has been proven to be representative for the project. Validity of the data has been verified in an appropriate way (measurement system analysis if applicable). Historical data has been used to visualize process stability and performance over time. Performance against requirements has been checked. Variation in the process has been considered (common cause or special cause). Short term versus long term performance has been considered.

ANALYZE 9 – DEVELOP Y=F(X) FUNCTION Relationship between the key inputs and performances (CTQ) • … Conclusion: © LSSA 2019 17

Analyze 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Process has been mapped in detail (e. g. Process Flow / VSM Current State). Potential factors of influence have been determined. Analysis have been used to identify factors with highest influence (e. g. Cause & Effect / FMEA). Hypothesis for root cause has been defined properly. Input data has been collected analyzed correctly. Graphical and statistical techniques have been applied to investigate root causes. Major root causes have been identified. Conclusions are clear and have demonstrated strong evidence/are statistically valid.

IMPROVE 12 – VALIDATE PROPOSED IMPROVEMENT Validated improvement actions • … Conclusion: © LSSA 2019 21

Improve 1 2 3 4 5 NA (Lean) Correct Self Assessment NA (6 Sigma) IMPROVE SELF ASSESSMENT Risks have been identified and addressed (e. g. p. FMEA). Improved process meets the requirements of the VOC and VOB. There is a clear communication and action plan towards the stakeholders. The client (Champion) has approved the improvement proposal. An improvement of the CTQ compared to the baseline is demonstrated (Capability study if applicable). Champion: - Date, Name & Signature © LSSA 2019 22

Control 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Standards are adjusted and documentation has been updated (p. FMEA, Control Plan, SOPs). Rolls and responsibilities have been described. Employees are instructed and/or trained. Evidence of 'In-Control situation' is available and sufficient. Improvements have proven to be sustainable. Measures have been put in place to monitor process performance. Project report has been completed. Lessons learned have been communicated. Champion signed that project targets and/or savings have been achieved. The controller signed the project for approval.
