Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to develop a framework that illustrates the role of Lean Six Sigma (LSS) in creating organisational innovation climate by investigating the relationship between LSS’s intangible impacts and organisational innovation climate factors. A self-administrated survey questionnaire was distributed among 145 public sector officials to get their opinions on the relationship between various observable elements of LSS’s intangible impacts and organisational innovation climate factors, where a response rate of 73.8% was achieved. The collected data were demographically, descriptively and statistically analysed. Accordingly, a house-of-pillars-based framework that illustrates the role of LSS’s intangible impacts in creating innovation climate in an organisation was developed. Results from this study indicated that LSS’s intangible impacts on organisational structure and hierarchy, culture, change adaptability, utilisation of staff and staff’s behavioural aspects are positively related to many of organisational innovation climate factors such as trust and openness, challenge and involvement, support for ideas and freedom and autonomy. The findings of this study are based on the data collected from public sector organisations in the UAE and are supported by relevant literature. However, this study can provide useful guidance for further research for the generalisation of the results to wider scopes in terms of sectors and geographical domains. The findings of this study will provide UAE public sector officials with a clear roadmap on how to use LSS for promoting innovation and fostering its implementation in practice. This study will also encourage professionals in public sectors to integrate LSS into their innovation strategies to enhance organisational innovativeness and improve service quality. It is one of the first studies that explores LSS’s intangible impacts and assesses their relationship with organisational innovation climate factors. Hence, this study offers valuable insights for both academics and practitioners and is expected to lay a foundation for a better understanding of how LSS’s intangible impacts can be used in creating organisational innovation climate.

Abstract: The response surface methodology (RSM) and Shewhart control charts have been widely used in manufacturing to reduce variation, improve quality and optimize the output. This article proposes an application of in iduals & moving range chart (I& MR) and RSM in electrochemical machining. The Shewhart-type I& MR control chart and RSM are combined together in an effective way to successfully guarantee the statistical control of the surface roughness (Ra) of the items produced by wire electrochemical turning, and meanwhile optimize Ra by exploring the optimal values of the machining parameters including applied voltage, wire feed rate, wire diameter, rotational speed and overlap distance. The conducted experiments reveal that the optimal values of the aforementioned factors are 23.67, 0.5, 0.2, 900 and 0.02, respectively. A second-order regression model is also developed to predict the output (Ra) at different combinations of the input parameters. The developed regression model can predict the output values with a determination coefficient (R2) of 96.9%. The proposed combined scheme of Shewhart charts and RSM can be employed in other manufacturing processes and even in different service sectors to efficiently enhance the performance and reduce the cost.
