  • Really liked your video. It’s hard to be all with the same understanding and agreement, I respect every comments. I’d remark that PDCA involves standardization as part of the ‘act’ step. It does not matter if you call it PDCA, PDAC or PDCV, etc., the importance is the mindset, approach, practice, results, etc. About 6s, there is also a strong cultural aspect based on the approach to attend processes variability. The rate of 3.4 defects is related to one million of opportunities rather than one million of products, as one product may have more than one opportunity of failure, which means more than one defect as a potential result of a higher process variation. This is a key factor to understand when we start talking about process variation. Thanks again for sharing. It would be interesting to watch a similar video about Lean Manufacturing and Six Sigma.

  • the 5Ss are really innovative in my opinion, they really show the efficiency of the Japanese culture.

    I never heard PDAC before in my whole life. It is PDCA, as stated in ISO 9K Series as the standard's fundamental.

  • Loved the whole video and got to know about certain terms with nicest examples. This video helped me choose lean sigma certification from KPMG and it was worth it.

    Fundamental flaws in the presentation: American consultants going to Japan had no hand in developing Kaizen. It was only Deming who shared the initial concepts with Toyota during his self-imposed exile in Japan owing to the ignorance he received from Ford. Toyota had already started to develop their own Lean Tools owing to economic drivers. Also it is PDCA and not PDAC.
