22.4 Raytheon Six Sigma
Raytheon Six Sigma (R6s) is a knowledge-based process that Raytheon is using internally and with our key suppliers to maximize customers value and grow our business. More than just a cost reduction methodology, we are using R6S to improve product quality, decrease cycle times and to enhance on-time delivery.
The principles of R6S are to:
· Specify value in the eyes of the customer
· Identify the value stream, eliminate waste and variation
· Make value flow at the pull of the customer
· Involve, align and empower employees
· Continuously improve knowledge in the pursuit of perfection
Raytheon has developed a process called R6S With Suppliers, extending the power of this methodology to our key suppliers. After a detailed collection of data on current and projected costs and defect levels, a workshop is conducted at the supplier’s facility to assess and prioritize potential areas of improvement. Each potential improvement project will be assessed for feasibility, implementation cost and projected payback. The workshops are co-led by R6S Experts and key supplier personnel. Raytheon customers may join the workshop. These workshops have been found to be extremely effective in focusing participants from both companies and linking R6S tools to product cost drivers, using a structured methodology that creates demonstrated success. For more information, please contact xxxxxxx@xxxxxxxx.xxx or 000-000-0000
