ABSTRACT
The Theory of Constraints-lean-six sigma (TLS) Continuum Process consists of a series of logical steps to bring improvement to the process involved. Each of these steps builds on the previous step to develop a fully concise effort to resolve the problem at hand. When one recognize that the improvement process is tackling a world system as proposed by Dr. Lawrence Miller, then they understand that the TLS Continuum is a vital tool in resolving those world system problems and system obstacles. Starting with a macro view their cross-functional team should include a representative of all the stakeholders who play a part in the process. It means identifying who has an investment in the solution to the problem. Once the team is in place and the milestones or deliverables have been identified, there is still one other crucial decision to be made. The TLS Continuum can be better explained by stating its ultimate goal.
