dc.description.abstract | A transactional process has the same
opportunities for improvement as a traditional
manufacturing process. This article provides a
successful example of how the tools and concepts of
Transactional Six Sigma can improve a nonmanufacturing process. As a result of the Sub
Assembly Acceptance Optimization project, the
total lead time of the approval process was reduced
by 66%. This was achieved by the elimination of
activities that did not add value to the process and
activities that were repeated or redundant. As a
result, the acceptance process implemented follows
a lean and efficient workflow. This improvement
also represents an increment in capacity in the
product release area; but most importantly will
drive our continuous effort of satisfying our
customers’ needs on a timely manner.
