Lean Six Sigma is a program used by some of the most successful organizations in the private sector that uses statistical analysis to increase efficiency and reduce waste. The County will implement it within all departments. The Department of Planning and Building will serve as its champion and be the first to put it into action.
“Dozens of local governments over the past few years have begun to implement a Lean Six Sigma strategy to address the growing demand for scarce resources,” said CAO John Nilon. “This methodology can save organizations money, improve morale, boost performance, and elevate the services we provide to the people of San Luis Obispo County.”
