Abstract
Supply chain management (SCM) is essential for any company to survive increasing global competitive pressures. SCM depends on continuous improvement and how it is implemented to support performance. Lean Six Sigma (LSS) enables supply chains to become more efficient and effective in sustaining continuous improvement. The integration of SCM and LSS is in its very initial stages. This work highlighted the most important LSS tools for improving SCM. Furthermore, a general framework for LSS-SCM is developed. This framework provides a step-by-step roadmap for improving SCM especially in manufacturing. Using this study, practitioners can determine which combination of LSS tools leads to the best performance and rapid success.
