Book description

The book presents the application of Six Sigma methodology as a viable path for achieving the goals of sustainability. Sustainability is a tool that helps companies gain true benefits off of their improvements. Many companies make improvements but cannot keep the results successful. This book not only shows how to use particular lean six sigma tools, but also how to sustain results for companies to be profitable with continuous improvement.
