Abstract

Green deployment of Lean Six Sigma (LSS) projects is essential but unknown among
scholars and practitioners. Therefore, we aim at identifying top readiness factors of green
deployment of LSS projects. A survey questionnaire was distributed to LSS experts and
academics around the world. A Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was conducted to
identify top readiness factors. The analysis revealed seven new dimensions for critical
success factors (CSFs), critical failure factors (CFFs) and barriers, and five new
dimensions for motivators. This study serves as an initial call for managers and research
scholars to favour the sustainable deployment of LSS projects in manufacturing.
