A New Paradigm of Value added Approach to Self Financing Engineering Institutions

Abstract

The central purpose of establishment of educational system. world over, is pursuit of teaching and learning to define and refine the behaviour of human society through students. A high quality of technical education is becoming increasingly important in India and abroad due to globalization and worldwide demand for quality engineers. This calls for revitalizing the existing system of technical education by adoption of method like lean thinking concept for optimum utilization of existing resources. Lean thinking concept considered a successful business strategy. employs minimization of process variability and non value added activities (waste) using Value Stream Mapping (VSM) as a strong "lean tool kit ". The objective of this paper is to present a future value stream mapping for achieving quality enhancement in engineering institution by eliminating non value added activities through the adoption of lean six-sigma strategy. resulting in a progressive quality.
