The
Pharmaceutical and Medical Device Industries,
like many other industries, are experiencing
a growing need to improve performance
driven by global competition and the
increasing impact of information technology.
Speed to market, product quality problems,
regulatory compliance issues, need to
reduce costs, waste and cycle time;
the list of problems is getting longer.
How to go about this improvement in
a systematic, focused and sustainable
manner is the question. Fortunately
a world-class body of improvement technology
exists known as Six Sigma and Lean Manufacturing.
To take advantage of these methods one
needs a holistic approach that integrates
the useful tools from all methodologies
into a common approach and provides
the infrastructure and management systems
to sustain the improvements. Applications
include diverse areas such as waste
and cycle time reduction, yield improvement,
deviation reduction, quality systems
improvement, and technology transfer.
Our
speaker, Dr. Ronald Snee, of Tunnell
Consulting, will focus on:
• Integration of Six Sigma and
Lean into an effective holistic improvement
methodology
• Deciding what approach and tools
to use on a given problem.
• Making effective use of improvement
methods when an organization is not
engaged in a top-down organization-wide
improvement initiative
• Creating the improvement roles
and management systems needed to sustain
the gains of improvement initiatives
and projects
• Using improvement to drive organizational
culture change
