Abstract

The research aims to identify the role of Lean Six Sigma in reducing costs and increasing the profitability of enterprises by applying this approach in order to influence the management/reduction of costs and improve the competitive situation. This concept has become the focus of many industrial and service organizations in both developed and developing economies, especially those focused on increasing profitability. This is because this approach differs in that it focuses on determining the percentage of defective products and diagnosing fault points in the production process. It also eliminates wastes that are reflected in further reduced quality costs. Thus, the purpose of the research is to determine the applicability of this approach in the sampling plant by determining its contribution to reducing quality costs. The research found a number of conclusions and recommendations. One of the most important conclusions was the possibility of applying this method to the plant in addition to its contribution to reducing costs and increasing the quantity of product. Regarding the recommendations, the study discussed the need to follow the methods of quality management in monitoring the production process as well as the need to increase spending on prevention activities.
