When to call us.

Holland Innovative (HI) supports your product or process development with experienced experts from physics, mechanical engineering, electronics, chemical engineering, software, and mathematics backgrounds. Our integration of Design for Six Sigma, Data Science, Root Cause Analysis, and Project Management has made HI a top competence center for developing and continuously improving products and processes.

Key questions in your development process:

  • Does your team base decisions on facts rather than gut feeling or trial and error?
  • Does your product meet required specifications at development completion?
  • Are acceptance tests defined in time to release the product according to specifications?
  • Do late-stage technical problems cause frequent 'firefighting'?
  • Are you satisfied with your process capability, or do you face too much downtime?
  • Can your measurement systems achieve the right accuracy and repeatability?
  • Have you identified and mitigated risks for market launch?
  • Do you have lots of data but struggle to extract value from it?
  • Are you late in identifying risks, leading to extra work, delays, or a risky launch?
  • Do you know what data is useful for your product development?
  • Do you experience too much variation in production or lack clarity on process capabilities?
  • Are you interested in customer experience data for your new product?
  • Are your production processes well understood to achieve optimal settings?
  • Are SOPs, OCAPs, Control Charts, and SPC in place and are your processes well-defined?
  • Is your team trained in fact-based, value-driven product development? Do you want to elevate their competence?

Design for Six Sigma and Data Science

We use Design for Six Sigma (DfSS) to translate critical requirements for your product or process into measurable parameters. DfSS starts with the Voice of the Customer and identifies Critical to Quality characteristics (CTQs) to focus on during development.

DfSS structures the development process and solves issues with proven statistical techniques, offering designers a toolbox of time-proven methodologies.

Data Science, like DfSS, is fact-based and extracts value from data. It provides additional tools for insights and accelerates results with scripting and intelligence techniques. Show a data scientist your database to uncover valuable insights, even from seemingly inadequate data.

Using DfSS and Data Science methodologies, we support the development of robust products, processes, and new value, service, and business models.

Product and process development

A project always starts with the voice of the customer and the voice of the business. The business case depends on the solution of the customer's needs. Whatever methodology you use, be it DMAIC, DIDOV or CRISP-DM, we can support you in developing robust designs and processes and reducing variation throughout the process.

Continuous improvement

In development we go for first time right. In the development of products and production it is important that both in terms of cost, quality and knowledge, the development continues and any problems that arise are solved. We support our customers in this phase in "Cost of Non Quality", "Continuous Improvement" and "Lean Six Sigma" programs.

Six Sigma Belt Trainings and Certifications

Green Belt, Black Belt, Master Black Belt. Six Sigma courses bring trainees to a desired level which enables them to apply the course content into real company projects.

Six Sigma Belt certification is about recognizing their true effort by showing their capabilities in one or more internal projects. A Belt Certificate is proof of successfully practical application and is assessed by our Board of Examinators.

Digital learning platform

To enable 24/7 access to materials, to have more interaction, to be able to exchange more, and to reduce the amount of printed paper, we have a Digital Learning Platform. This platform gives you access to the training material, which you can download at any time. You are also in contact with the other participants of the training and your trainer.
