    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.
