NOVACES Awarded Prime Contract to Advance Lean Six Sigma and Process Improvement Initiatives at Navy Medicine
NOVACES was awarded a Prime Contract by Navy Medicine’s (NAVMED) Performance Improvement Office (PIO). Under this award, NOVACES will deliver Lean Six Sigma (LSS), process improvement, administrative, and knowledge management support across the Navy Medicine Enterprise.
The contract supports operations at the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery (BUMED), regional commands, and other NAVMED organizations. NOVACES will provide local performance improvement resources, project management expertise, and administrative program support to enhance mission effectiveness and operational efficiency.
The scope of the program focuses on sustaining and advancing NAVMED’s LSS program. LSS combines the benefits of both Lean manufacturing techniques and Six Sigma to help organizations streamline operations, increase value and reduce waste. A key aspect of this initiative is project management and support of the Belt Development Program, specifically to mentor the Regional Black Belts (RBB), Command Black Belts (BB), and Green Belts (GB) in the use of industry-leading methodologies.
NOVACES is proud to have supported Navy Medicine’s Lean Six Sigma and process improvement efforts since 2008, and this latest award reinforces its long-standing commitment to continuous improvement in federal healthcare operations.
