Abstract: | Fierce competition and customer satisfaction create a new definition for quality management system. It creates the need for new quality improvement methodologies to satisfy customers. Zero Defect, Zero Effect model with world class quality products is used by Government of India to support MSMEs. These organizations also need to become cost competitive and deliver products on time. newlineIndia has become the fifth largest manufacturing country in the world by the end of 2020, and the government has set an ambitious target of increasing the contribution of manufacturing output to 25% of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) by 2025 this would be a 9% increase from the current level of 16%. The potential of the Indian manufacturing sector has to touch US$ 1 trillion by 2025. It accounts for 25 to 30 percent of the country s GDP and by 2025 creates up to 90 million domestic jobs. The Indian manufacturing sector remains positive for business conditions and attracts investors. On 11 March 2020, the COVID-19 outbreak was declared as a pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO) [108]. It has spread over 190 countries and derailed the world economy [109]. Indian automobile manufacturing industries is also hard hit due to this pandemic and faces the demand shock. It will take a long time to regain the GDP as in 2020, it is predicted in negative side. newlineExtensive literature review reveals that existing defect reduction and quality improvement techniques in the Indian manufacturing industries are lacking in the global competition. The existing methodologies are ineffective and require a lot of attention to upgrade the definition of quality in the Indian industries. Lean six sigma (LSS) started from Motorola in 1986 for reducing defect and improving profitability of the organization. However, various Indian organizations failed to adopt LSS methodology due to lack of top management involvement and availability of guidelines to implement LSS. newlineIn this study, critical success factors of LSS have been analyzed and common CSFs are selected i |
