"We must constantly retool ourselves, become

Price Pritchett

If you've ever said, "There must be a better way." 
... there is, and it's not more computerization!

A manufacturer's success is directly related to how well it masters the BASICS of lean six sigma training. These BASICS provide the foundation for optimizing system and process results. Without a tenacious execution of these BASICS, there's no way a company will reach its full growth and earnings potentials. EVER!

Are you currently experiencing:

  • Production/quality problem "finger-pointing?

  • Shop floor fire-fighting and end-of-month scrambling?

  • Supplier material and component rejects?

  • Return to Vendor (RTV) activities?

  • A lack of six sigma training materials

  • Material Review Board (MRB) activities?

  • Process and/or assembly scrap and rework?

  • Customer product returns and warrantee charges?

  • Shop floor fire-fighting cause by MRP reschedules?

If you answered "YES" to any of these questions, you no doubt will find value for whatever time you spend reviewing the content of this web page. If you are in search of a better way to run your business, you have come to the right place. Here you will find Bill Gaw's 8-BASICS of Lean Six Sigma Training ... 8-BASICS to drive MRP, ERP, and lean manufacturing success ...  8-BASICS to proactive solutions that eliminate day-to-day chaos and the end-of-the-month crunch. 

It's the Basics, Friend!

I realize the word "BASICS " is not very sexy. But it is a very important thing to understand. 


Many years ago Vince Lombardi led the Green Bay Packers football team to unprecedented success by having an almost obsessive focus on doing the BASICS very well. 

It’s amazing how many individuals and companies have great visions yet fail to achieve their full growth and earning potentials. They're a lot like the Green Bay Packer's football team before the arrival of Vince Lombardi... all the potential in the world but with no focus on executing the basics of their profession. 

The fact is, the basics of lean six sigma... the things that serve as a solid foundation for growing and enduring success have not changed since before I was born... and won't change after you're dust.

It's tempting to think that they do... that the introduction of a new change initiatives like Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Customer Relations Management, (CRM) and Six Sigma can change the basics.

I understand the temptation.

I can only caution against it, and invite you --- urge you --- to be a serious student of history in both the evolution and revolution in manufacturing.

Mastering the proven basics of what has worked in the past will give you the foundation needed to predict what will work today... and tomorrow!  

Mastering of Bill's lean six sigma basics can help you and your company reach their full growth and earnings potentials. Best of all, work will become fun again.   

"The more you know how to do, 
and the better you do it, the more valuable you become."
               
                                                                        Price Pritchett

And, it's the "how to" that really makes a difference.

Most lean six sigma training materials today are PowerPoint® presentations... a simple slide show. Bill Gaw's Lean Six Sigma e-Training Package on the other hand includes powerful, PowerPoint® graphics, "plus" annotated note pages with explanations, and "lessons learned" by a "been there, done that" professional. A  value added, e-learning experience on "how to" design, implement and deploy the six sigma change initiative for personal and company success.


One of our customers said it even better than we can:

"Bill Gaw's e-learning is focused on the "how to." Unlike other training materials that tell you only what you need to do... Bill's training presents what you need to do and then he shows you how to do it."

                                    T.J. Imholts, VP Operations, Adstore Inc.

package of knowledge and skills than the next person."
