TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identify the lean management and six-sigma strategies to improve production performance in pharmaceutical companies through the evaluation and analysis of Six Sigma for the performance of production processes.
Abstract: The aim of this paper is to identify the lean management and Six Sigma strategies to improve production performance in pharmaceutical companies through the evaluation and analysis of Six Sigma for the performance of production processes in pharmaceutical companies. The study sheds light on two variables that are considered among the most critical variables in a business organization. The paper explores the critical factors related to the application of L6σ. It also, mentions to lean management and six Sigma strategies, analyzing the production process to classify critical areas and work proactively to improve both quality and productivity. The hypotheses of process normality behavior are tested to verify subsistence of adequate conditions for Six Sigma methodology application, as well as errors forecasting in the distribution parameters estimation. The researcher reached several results on the basis of the results of the statistical analysis. The field of Lean Six Sigma had started to produce significantly, standalone concepts of Lean and Six Sigma are highly researched related to the integrated concepts; large proportion of perspective, conceptual and descriptive based studies, empirical validity on the fusion between Lean and Six Sigma. This paper has made an effort to categorize the satisfied of Lean Six Sigma studies that has never before attempted given the complexity and diversity inherent. Therefore, this paper can lookout as abasis for future endeavors in an effort to better the classification and contents in ways that best describe the researches in the field of Lean Six Sigma and six Sigma.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore the principle of lean and six sigma for identification and elimination of waste in construction organization and derive the reasons contributing to the amount of material wasted on residential building sites.
Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to explore the principle of lean and six sigma for identification and elimination of waste in construction organization. Efficient material management is essential in managing a productive and cost effective site. In this working career, the author has been observing inefficient labour productivity practices, resulting from poor site material management, and handling. In this paper, therefore an attempt made to rectify these activities and construction organization. Primary objective of the study is to derive the reasons contributing to the amount of material wasted on residential building sites, which needs to bring down substantially by devising suitable method. A case study follows that demonstrates, how lean thinking and six sigma principles, tools and techniques be applied to a public and semi government authorities.
