The scientific interests tackled in the journal are Process management, Lean manufacturing, Six Sigma, Lean Six Sigma and Manufacturing engineering. Process management research in it involves the investigation of Human performance technology studies, all of which are linked to disciplines such as Total quality management. The studies in Lean manufacturing featured incorporate elements of Knowledge management, Manufacturing and Process (engineering).
Aside from research in Knowledge management, it also discusses Systematic review studies. The in-depth study on Process (engineering) also explores topics in the intersecting field of Industrial engineering. In the journal, Quality management and Critical success factor are investigated in conjunction with one another to address concerns in Six Sigma research.
The concepts on Lean Six Sigma presented in the journal can also apply to other research fields, including Business process and Project management. International Journal of Lean Six Sigma facilitated discussions that integrated Operations management and Practical implications. While International Journal of Lean Six Sigma primarily focused on Lean project management, it also opened dialogues on disciplines such as Lean laboratory and Lean software development.
The most cited publications cover a variety of subjects, including Six Sigma, Process management, Lean manufacturing, Operations management and Lean project management. The journal articles focus on Six Sigma research which is adjacent to topics in Manufacturing engineering. The published articles in Critical success factor fall within the purview of Process management but it also intertwines with topics in Identification (information).
The concepts of Process management, Lean Six Sigma, Lean manufacturing, Six Sigma and Manufacturing engineering are tackled in International Journal of Lean Six Sigma. It holds forums on Process management that merges themes from other disciplines such as Supply chain, Capability Maturity Model, Service (business) and Quality management. The research on Lean Six Sigma tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Critical success factor, Library science and Resilience (network).
Knowledge management and Process (engineering) are some topics wherein Lean manufacturing research discussed in the journal have an impact. DMAIC studies in the realm of Six Sigma interact with fields like Road map. Issues in Manufacturing engineering were discussed, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Hybrid approach, Production optimization, Manufacturing and Production system.
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing in International Journal of Lean Six Sigma (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in International Journal of Lean Six Sigma (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.
During the most recent 2021 edition, 95.71% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 33.33% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 0.00% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 33.33% of all publications and 33.33% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.
The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
The principles taught in the International Journal of Lean Six Sigma aren’t only essential for research scientists, manufacturing engineers, and industrial professionals. They also offer significant learning opportunities for students in business schools who are studying disciplines such as operations management, quality management, and project management. Understanding these principles can provide insights into optimizing business processes and enhancing organizational efficiency. It is worth noting here that in many of the top 5 business schools in Maryland, Lean Six Sigma forms part of the curriculum for advanced degree programs, given its relevance in today's dynamic business environment.
