Apply Lean Six Sigma’s basic tools to uncover and eliminate a small inefficiency in your daily routine or workplace process.

Project Steps

Choose Your Process — Pick a daily task or simple work process (e.g., morning coffee routine, email triage, filing documents).
Map It Visually — Sketch or list the steps in the process (e.g., SIPOC or flowchart).
Spot Waste or Variation — Use Lean principles (like 5S, waiting, motion, overproduction) to identify one or two inefficiencies.
Propose a Quick Fix — Make a change to reduce or eliminate the waste (e.g., reorganize, batch tasks, streamline steps).
Measure the Impact — Before/after metrics: time saved, steps reduced, or fewer errors.
Share Your Findings — Upload your process map, a brief “before vs after” summary, and any measured improvements.

Final Deliverable: A single image containing:

Your original process map or Your improved process map or checklist
A short description (~100‑150 words) covering:
- The inefficiency you targeted
- Your improvement idea
- A simple metric of results (e.g., “Saved 2 minutes each morning,” “Removed 3 redundant steps”)
You’re encouraged to describe your next improvement idea, even if you haven’t implemented it yet.
