Process-oriented quality management (PQM) for environmental sustainability – A modeling tool-based Six Sigma approach
A significant climate objective recently established by the EU is a 55% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions (by 2030), with the objective of achieving complete climate neutrality by 2050. In light of this, it is imperative that companies undertake a critical reflection of their business processes with the aim of reducing greenhouse gas emissions and energy and resource utilization. At this juncture, process-oriented quality management methodologies, such as Six Sigma, can make substantial contributions in reorganizing a company’s processes to meet environmental goals and achieve resource-saving operations. However, a standardized definition of “green quality” along with corresponding quality dimensions has not yet been established. In light of this, the lecture proposes an approach to perform Green Lean Six Sigma (GLSS) projects, whereby conceptual model types are used to create, process, and communicate the results generated in projects.
