As you know lean is something about removing waste from the workplace and six sigma methodologies are all about eliminating process variation.
There are two major cultural difference in implementing lean & six sigma together:
Lean is a Japanese culture and Six Sigma is an American culture based on statistics.
Enterprise lean sigma is the answer to your question. Through ELS you can improve visual control of your work place and find out the easy way to remove waste and using Six Sigma methodologies you can predict the process and can control that very well.
For implementing the both you need to improve data capturing for sigma study and should start with standard work template.

Hello Everyone, This topic is very interesting. A project is known to be six sigma project if it makes business sense and return the revenue on investment at least 1:10. It is very true successful six sigma project leads to shift of sigma level, no matter whether u achieve 3.4DPMO or not but your sigma level must be improved whether it is from 2 to 3.
