The purpose of this study is to demonstrate improvements in customer service index (CSI), product cycle time and inventory turnover after implementation of a Six Sigma project. Design/methodology/approach – This research focused on the value stream mapping of a company process, performed by a multidisciplinary team that implemented a pull production system, the standard operational procedure in machines that were process bottlenecks, and the kanban system. Findings – After three months of implementation, the authors observed an 11.7 percent reduction in product cycle time, increase in customer service index (CSI) from 93.9 to 97 percent and increase in inventory turnovers from 4.9 to 9. Originality/value – The project was in accordance with the competitive strategy of the company, which is focused on customer satisfaction and cost reduction 2020-07-27T14:21:19Z 2020-07-27T14:21:19Z 2013-01-18 article SOUZA, R.P.; HÉKIS,H.R.; OLIVEIRA, L.A.B.; QUEIROZ, J.V.; QUEIROZ, F.C.B.P.; VALENTIM, R.A.M..
