Why Train with Bullet Consulting?
Because we’ve been there, done that.
We realize there are many options for you to choose from when seeking Lean Six Sigma instruction. Our approach differs significantly from others; rather than hiring a consultant to come on-site and conduct in-house training, or go to a hotel ballroom somewhere, our training is conducted in a lean operation (that happens to be a Brewery and Distillery).
In this environment, we can not only explain the tools and concepts of Lean Six Sigma, but also demonstrate how they can be applied, how they work in real life, and what challenges you may run up against while implementing them. Our instructors can speak from first-hand experience; our training environment is a working brewery where we use these tools and systems every day.
Not only do we offer world-class training and instruction, our “Brewstillery” experience is unique in the Lean Six Sigma industry. Nowhere else can you attend this level of Lean Six Sigma training in an environment where you can see how the systems work first-hand and ask questions from those employees who use the tools and systems daily.
