  • Abstract

    Lean Six Sigma Has Been Used Successfully In Industry, Healthcare, And Banking, Among Other Fields, To Deal With These Problems. By Using Lean Six Sigma, Costs Have Been Cut By A Lot, Quality Has Im- Proved, And Effecti Eness Has Gone Up. But There Isn’t Much Study On How Lean Six Sigma Could Be Used In The Transportation Industry. Because The Transportation Industry Is So Intricate And Ev- Er-Changing, It Must Have Procedures That Are Both Efficien And Effecti E In Order To Guarantee That Both People And Goods Will Be Transported In A Secure Manner And On Time. Over The Past Few Years, Companies In The Transportation Industry Have Been Looking For Ways To Improve The Quality And Effi- Ciency Of Their Processes, Which Has Led To An Uptick In Interest In The Application Of Lean Six Sigma
