Abstract

The service sector has a substantial role in India's economy and it solely depends on the education sector for better
innovations. Knowledge is the tryst to innovation, and sustainable innovation marvels in the crowded markets of India. In
situations like these, “Technical Institutes” require supporting tools to eradicate major defects like lack of admissions and
placements, similar to material purchasing defects or manufacturing defects in an industry. This paper reviews implications
of Lean Six Sigma methodology in a technical institute for improving the admissions to placements ratio by considering all
the necessary factors along with psychological dimension of students. The implementation of this tool resulted in change of
sigma values drastically and increasing the admissions of the institute. This article provides documented evidence of Lean
Six Sigma implementation with psychological dimensions and will yield a great value to academics, consultants,
visionaries, practitioners of Lean Six Sigma.
