for, continuously improved, and managed by each employee. Our commitment to the highest
levels of manufacturing excellence begins with:
- An Employee Education Program

Six-Sigma
"Six-Sigma" is a disciplined methodology that focuses all products,
processes, and services towards perfection---zero defects. Resistoflex employs 1 Master
Black Belt, 2 Black Belts, and 1 Green Belt. Six Sigma tools are applied to a variety of
projects where the methodology is concentrated on 5 activities:
- Defining
- Measuring
- Analyzing

Six Sigma projects have and continue to increase the quality, speed, and efficiency of
our operations.
Operational Excellence
The Operational Excellence program at Crane Co. is designed to implement Lean
principles through all business units. It is built on the foundation of our Six-Sigma
program, but it extends beyond Six-Sigma into a full Lean initiative. The goal is simple:

Sigma Company that seeks Operational Excellence has:
- World-Class Quality
