The Six Sigma Guy Delivers Six Sigma to the Beautiful City of Puerto Princesa

Puerto Princesa City, Palawan- Rex Tuozo, "The Six Sigma Guy", was one of the speakers of PSTD's annual National Convention held in Puerto Princesa City, Palawan.

With the title of his talk being "Lean Facilitator Tools: Speed up your processes and reduce wastes", Mr. Tuozo made sure that the participants will bring home tools that are easy to use, practical, and high impacting.

The Six Sigma Guy started his talk with a brief introduction of about Six Sigma, followed by 3 staple tools: The ever-lasting SIPOC Diagram, and the VSM or Value Stream Map in conjunction with the Qualitative Analysis, or as how our Master Black Belt likes to call it, the "two-hit combo" to give emphasis on the synergistic properties of the two latter tools.

Both The Six Sigma Guy and the Participants seemed to have enjoyed the workshop and the discussion that the talk almost went over the allotted time, good thing we have great coordinators from PSTD!

Curious about when will the Six Sigma Guy visit your cities? You may email us at ask@6sigmaph.com for in-house Six Sigma Class.

See you!

Program Director Decreases Accreditation Process by 83% - Receives Black Belt Certification

by: Crisglen John Villegas

MAKATI CITY, Philippines - The Philippines gained another Certified Six Sigma Black Belt last February, as the Six Sigma Guy awards Raphael Dannug his Black Belt Certification after his project reduced the processing time of Vendor Accreditation and improving it along the way.

Also on that day was the last day of our Green Belt Class (Wave 49). The graduating wave was fortunate enough to witness the awarding, and gather a few insights from the awardee's testimonial about his project. Raphael also left a few tips for the group and encouraged them to complete their project and get certified.

Here's Raphael's Testimonial Video:

Our team also conducted a one-on-one interview with him after the awarding to gather more tips that might be helpful for our readers who are aspiring to get their Six Sigma Certifications. He definitely have very useful insights!

Q. How was it like for you, starting up and executing your own project?
A. It was a good start. Management and the team were all on board. We encountered problems during implementation due to resistance to change. With a good team lead and support from our champion, we were able to implement some changes. Another road block for us was the outside influence of other process stakeholders who did not take part in the project. To overcome this, we initiated a plan to pitch the project to them individually starting with the most influential. After getting her go ahead it was easier to convince the other committee members since we got the head's blessing.

Overall it was fun and challenging. We learned that change must always be managed and even with roadblocks, progress might slow but if you are confident with your project just keep finding ways to implement them and the people against you will slowly be the ones supporting you.

Q. What was your project about?
A. It was to improve the vendor accreditation process by shortening Processing time and standardizing accreditation criteria

Q. What were the results of your project?
A. We were able to decrease processing time from an average of 6 months to an average processing time of 1 month. This also brought about better competition within existing suppliers and new suppliers creating more x deals and better discounts with purchases.

Another effect of the project was improvement of collection of receivables from suppliers of government subsidies. We were also able to standardize and streamline the entire process to save on man-hours. It was considered so successful that the project was replicated across other purchasing divisions and was also implemented in a sister hospital. To date the average processing time was further lessened to 3/4 months.

Q. Among/Aside the Action Items that were done, what were the key elements that led to the success of your project?
A. The biggest factor for our success was the team and their unwavering determination to make a difference. Because of their passion to provide better healthcare and their eagerness to address key problems in providing quality to their patients, they were able to overcome de-motivation, roadblocks and found innovative ways to bypass showstoppers.

The next factor would be the teams people skills. We were very fortunate that the team had this skill and was able to utilize it in winning over additional support from other stakeholders who were hesitant and even additional support from other departments like IT to prioritize our project over others.

The third success factor is the creativity of the team to be able to create solutions and in the face of resistance and hesitation innovated the solutions to be modular effectively managing change.

Q. What was the impact of being a certified Six Sigma Green Belt to you as an individual / professional?
A. Personally, LSS has greatly helped me in being more organized, accurate and credible. Organized because its DMAIC process is so efficient you are able to cover all aspects of the project from the start. Accurate because of the various tools and root cause analysis methods allowing you to go beyond symptoms and target the real root of the problem. Credible because it taught me what to measure and what each measure represents. Its become easier to pitch projects to top management because i am now able to relate problems with credible measures and data to reinforce my claims.

Q. What would be your message to those who are currently taking / planning to take the Green Belt Program or those who are currently conducting their own projects?
A. LSS will lead you what to correctly address, so beleive in your data.

You should be great facilitators to inspire creative and innovative solutions from your team! Dont Give in and become demotivated. believe in your team and your project.

Always manage all stakeholders, People against you can become your greatest supporters!

Black Belt Certification Awarded to Business Excellence Manager After Increasing Production Capacity by 52%

By: Crisglen John Villegas

MAKATI CITY, Philippines - The Philippines gained another Certified Six Sigma Black Belt last February 9; as the Six Sigma Guy awards Carlo Vergara his Black Belt Certification after increasing overall production capacity in the company where he conducted his project by 52%.

Also on that day, was the last day of our first Green Belt Class this 2018. The graduating wave was fortunate enough to witness the awarding, and gather a few insights from the awardee's testimonial about his project. Carlo Also left a few tips for the group and encouraged them to complete their project and get certified.

Here's Carlo's Tesimonial Video:

Our team also conducted a one-on-one interview with him after the awarding to gather more tips that might be helpful for our readers who are aspiring to get their Six Sigma Certifications.

Q. What prompted you to take the Six Sigma Workshop?
A. The Sr. Process Engineer post was a new role in my previous company back then. The role dealt with:
-- ensuring that processes are performed as per standard, and
-- continuously improving them.
The Six Sigma workshop is a perfect fit for the new role.

Q. What Prompted you to start your project?
A. The expansion of the food business arm of the company prompted me to start the project. The project was launched to:
-- lower down the production cost per unit, and
-- keep up with the demand due to opening of new stores.

Q. What was your project about?
A. The project was to increase weekly production capacity to lower down the monthly production cost per unit to the required level of PHP 4.00 or lower.

Q. How was it like for you, starting up and executing your own project?
A. At first it was challenging. While this is the second time a lean six sigma project was launched in the company, there is still much mentoring to do to enlighten them on the value that a lean six sigma project can deliver. When the first significant impact was made, the project went smooth sailing.

Q. What were the results of your project?
A. The team was able to increase the capacity by 39% for the products in the scope of the project, and 52% for the overall production capacity. The monthly production cost per unit for all products was decreased to PHP 3.65

Q. Among/Aside the Action Items that were done, what were the key elements that led to the success of your project?
A. My two direct reports and my production team are forward thinkers. They are not afraid of trying new things. They also have high awareness and are ready to report immediately any finding that will contribute to the success of the project.

Q. What was the impact of your project to your company?
A. Aside from the capacity increase mentioned above, the project was able to save around PHP 800k of operations cost annually.

Q. What was the impact of being a certified Six Sigma Green Belt to you as an individual / professional?
A. Being a certified Lean Six Sigma Black Belt greatly increased my personal growth. It has increased my sense of curiosity my drive to discover and learn. Professionally, I recently transferred to a BPO company. And I got the new role because of the certification.

Q. What would be your message to those who are currently taking / planning to take the Green Belt Program or those who are currently conducting their own projects?
A.
1. If you're still planning to take the lean six sigma program, take the lean six sigma program. You'll learn a lot of things, even more than what you expect! :)
2. The project sponsor is important. He/She will get you through some, if not most, of the roadblocks you will encounter.
3. Take care of your data and your team. And the data and your team will show you where to improve.
4. Real world situations will sometimes make some of your action items not feasible. While it is easy to make solutions on-the-fly, go back to the information you have and start regrouping from there.
5. Share the tools and tricks that made impact! They might have other applications somewhere in your company.

Q. Is there anything else that you'd like to share about your experience?
A. I'm active in the Facebook group. Do contact me if you have questions regarding your projects. :)

There you have it!

Which Pill to Take: Lean Six Sigma or Design Sprint (Design Thinking v2.0) ?

12/28/2017

By: Rex Jayson Tuozo "The Six Sigma Guy"

"You take the blue pill, the story ends. You wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill, you stay in wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes." ―Morpheus to Neo (The Matrix movie)

Lean Six Sigma or Design Sprint (Design Thinking v2.0)?

In the 1999 film The Matrix, the main character Neo is offered the choice between a red pill and a blue pill by rebel leader Morpheus. The red pill would free him from the enslaving control of the machine-generated dream world. On the other hand, the blue pill would lead him back to stay in the comfortable simulated reality of the Matrix.

For both Lean Six Sigma and Design Thinking Professionals however, the decision in choosing either Lean Six Sigma or Design Sprint (Design Thinking v2.0) is usually not the first question to answer. Most of the time, we suffer from "exaggerated confidence based on one's expert experience". Simply put, "If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail (Maslow, 1962)". Which means, for a Lean Six Sigma professional, most problems look like DMAIC can solve, and for a Designers, the 5-day Design Sprint is the way to go.

For those who are knowledgeable of both best practices, the choice of what to use is usually difficult because there is currently no framework in identifying what methodology to pick. Both Lean Six Sigma and Design Thinking professionals say that some problems may be solved by either of the two, or combination of both. This leads to trial-and-error which means more time and more resources spent on projects.

Rare Misprints of 100-peso Faceless Bills

In December 28, 2017, In a televised press conference, Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) Managing Director Carlyn Pangilinan said Machine errors have caused “rare misprints” of the 100-peso “faceless bills”.

Now, before you react on how inefficient and incompetent BSP is, it was found that there are only 33 misprinted bills out of the millions of pieces BSP is printing in a day, or at least 728 millions of pieces they print in a year. In Six Sigma lingo, it is equivalent to only 0.04 defect per million opportunities, exceeds even the ultimate goal of Six Sigma which is 3.4 defects per million opportunities.

This problem though is a good example on how to clearly distinguish a Design Problem against a problem that can be solved by Six Sigma's DMAIC methodology.

Let's look at how the two problems are difficult:

Design Problem
Can be solved by Design Sprint (Design Thinking v2.0)

According to Inquirer news article, consumers have expressed confusion at being handed the recently released five-peso silver coins which are closely similar in shape and in size to the one-peso BSP coins.

This is a perfect "design" problem that can be solved by Design Sprint. Persons involved in designing and launching this new generations coin have not considered critical user experience, lacked user "empathy", and "assumed" that what they think the users need are, are exactly what they really need. The BSP officials should have collected customer insights of the prototype and adjusted the specifications based on the user feedback before minting the new coins.

Design Sprint (Design Thinking v2.0) focuses on 3 things:
1. Developing a New Product or Service that your target customers love.
2. Innovating an Existing Product or Service to make it better for your target customers.
3. Improving the Customer Experience of your existing product or service.

Lean Six Sigma Problems
Can be solved by using Lean Six Sigma's DMAIC methodology

Process Defects
(Face and some areas not printed)

Process Delays
*NOT a real life example
(If let's say BSP's target is to print 1 Million pcs of bills per day, and at the end of day only 950,000 pcs were printed)

Variations
*NOT a real life example
(Variation of sizes of bills: Some did not meet the standard length, width, or both)

Lean Six Sigma focuses on 3 things:
Reduction of:
1. Process Defects
2. Process Delays
3. Process Variations

of an existing products or services of a company. The assumption of Lean Six Sigma: a company has a product or service that the customers love. Six Sigma is not after designing a new product or service, but after the company deliver the product or service, with fewer defects, delays, and variations.

Conclusion

Lean Six Sigma is used if your existing product/ service has recurring problems with process defects, delays and variations. It means you still do not know what solutions to do for your problem, because you still do not know what the root causes are.

For Design Sprint (Design Thinking v2.0), the problem is about how to facilitate innovation: How to design a new product or service that your target customers love; How to innovate an existing product or service; and how to improve customer experience of your existing product or service.

What business problems do you currently have? Will you take the Lean Six Sigma pill? or choose the Design Sprint (Design Thinking v2.0) pill?

Please share your thoughts so we all learn from it.

What Qualities Make Your Work Satisfying?

12/20/2017

A blessed Christmas and I wish good health for all of you in 2018!

Only 11 days to go before we end the year. Time really flies so fast. It has been a little over 4.5 years since I founded Six Sigma PH, and started a Six Sigma independent consulting career full-time. It was a big risk. A path less traveled. It was never easy, choosing a high-risk work over a handsome and guaranteed monthly pay check, bountiful variable bonuses, benefits, and a gold plated title from a multinational company to boast with. Initially, I thought I'll have more free time to spend, but it was the exact opposite. I was burning the oil from midnight to noon to midnight. I thought working as an independent professional means having no boss, but it turns out, all my clients are my bosses- with different needs, wants, attitudes and expectations. Doing not just what I am expert us, but also market research, business development, client management, supplier sourcing, finance & accounting, and other functions, are the reasons why only few dare to be in this situation.
However, receiving countless "Thank you to you Rex and to your team" from many students who have been promoted, improved their careers, contributed positive business results, and saved millions for their businesses and their companies, make it worth it.

Also, having the autonomy, the challenge of complexity, and the line of sight between effort and rewards, make it all worth it.

I'll end with a quote of M. Gladwell's best selling book- Outliers.

"Those 3 things- autonomy, complexity, and a connection between effort and rewards- are, most people agree, the 3 qualities that work has to have if it is to be satisfying. Not how much money we make that ultimately makes us happy between 8 to 5." ---Outliers, Malcolm Gladwell

----------------------------

PS Do you experience the said 3 qualities at work: Autonomy, complexity and a direct connection between effort and rewards? If not, now is a perfect time to reflect and make the big move in 2018. Do you want to be a full-time theater actor? A singer? Start a restaurant? An entrepreneur? Study law? Be a chef or a fashion designer? It is never too late. You are the master of your fate, the captain of your soul!

Thank you very much for being part of our 2017. Happy Christmas to all. God bless your families, and we'll see you again soon.

Proceeds of Six Sigma PH’s Premium Six Sigma Hoodies Donated to Kythe Foundation

Quezon City, Philippines- Six Sigma PH helps make Christmas of the kids at the Philippine Orthopedic Center merrier with the help of Six Sigma Certified Professionals.

Early this year, The Six Sigma Team launched a line of Premium Six Sigma Hoodies as part of their Corporate Service Responsibility. The team has chosen Kythe, a foundation dedicated to help youngsters with special needs, to be the recipient of the hoodies’ proceed; particularly, their center at the Philippine Orthopedic Center.

It was very fortunate that our team was able to raise enough funds from the hoodies. Last Wednesday, 6th of December, we dropped of the fruits of our CSR, and we were able to provide new sets of electric fans, several medical and comfort equipment that the kids need, and a few toys and entertainment items for the kids to enjoy.

Our project would not have been possible if not for the trust that our alumni have given us. To the professionals that availed our hoodies, you made this generous occurrence happen.

You must be thinking that you’ve read the last of it, but we would like to ask more of your help: If you know a charity that is in great need of donations and assistance, kindly recommend them to us (contact details below). We still have more than enough funds left and we’re aiming to donate to two more foundations in the early 2018.

God Bless everyone, and happy holidays!

The Six Sigma Guy as Plenary Speaker at UP CIEM's Annual Event - IEshikawa 12

The Six Sigma Guy as Plenary Speaker at UP CIEM's Annual Event - IEshikawa

By Crisglen John P. Villegas

QUEZON CITY, Philippines- The Six Sigma Guy, Rex Jayson Tuozo delivered his talk entitled; "Lean Six Sigma: What's in It for IEs?" at the IEshikawa last Saturday, November 18. IEshikawa is the annual event held by UP CIEM, gathering thousands of IE students from all over the Philippines.

EIshikawa - UP CIEM believes that "Industrial Engineers have a role in working hand in hand with the Philippine Government - the nation's backbone." which is why they have prepared a line up of talks and workshops that are geared towards helping future IEs to "create a nation with an effective and efficient governing body."

Having faith in this vision, The Six Sigma Guy talked about Six Sigma whose methodologies and tools mirror the organizations visions, as these methodologies and tools can play a very big role in creating an effective and efficient process.

Of course being a herald of fun, The Six Sigma Guy also taught the students to do the "Secret Six Sigma Handshake", which, we are not supposed to write about because it's secret, but here's a video of it anyway:

For Student/Professional Organizations seeking assistance from Six Sigma PH or The Six Sigma Guy, Kindly send you email at ask@6sigmaph.com and we'll be glad to view your proposals.
