Our story
Procestimal is a company based in the Netherlands focusing on helping organizations optimize their processes. It was founded in 2023 by logistics expert, Dutch Naval Officer, and Lean Six Sigma Black Belt Floris Lap MSc. After completing Lean Six Sigma training in 2019, he noticed a significant gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application. As a result, many people around him were trained in Lean, but no further progress was made. This inefficiency motivated him to seek a solution. Unable to find it anywhere, he decided to create it himself and share it with others through Procestimal.
Mission of Procestimal
Empowering organizations to maximize value and reduce waste with Lean Six Sigma.
Vision of Procestimal
A sustainable world where organizations maximize value with minimal resources.
Audience of Procestimal
Specifically, Procestimal’s audience consists of professionals actively engaged in optimizing processes within their organizations using Lean and/or Six Sigma methodologies. These individuals are typically improvement specialists, team leaders, or managers who seek practical, accessible tools to reduce waste, enhance value, and drive continuous improvement. They value structured, proven approaches like Lean Six Sigma and are looking for effective ways to apply them in real-world settings. Procestimal supports these professionals by offering modular, on-demand e-learning aligned with the IASSC Body of Knowledge, designed to bridge the gap between theory and daily practice.
Guiding principles of Procestimal
1. Promoting sustainable success
Firstly, at Procestimal, our purpose is to bring positive change by spreading the Lean Six Sigma methodology to foster a more sustainable world. We are dedicated to utilizing and disseminating Lean principles to empower organizations to consume fewer resources while concurrently maximizing customer satisfaction. We aim to reduce environmental impact and enhance customer value by promoting efficiency and eliminating waste. Our commitment to Lean encourages industries to adopt sustainable practices for a more resource-efficient future. At Procestimal we embrace the Lean Six Sigma methodology, which can not only drive business success but also contribute significantly to creating a better world for current and future generations.
2. Lifelong learning
Moreover, in today’s fast-paced business world, lifelong learning is essential to remain competitive. We prefer modular, self-paced learning over traditional theory-heavy courses. Therefore, we have structured the Lean Six Sigma curriculum as modular content. It is available through e-learning so that you can learn the subject you want, when you want. We also believe that training does not stop when you get your certification. Skill fading occurs over time, and when you want to apply the skills you learned during training, you may want to get back to the list of tools. Therefore, we support using our e-learning platform both as a training resource and a reference toolkit. We not only prepare you for Lean (Six Sigma) certification but also provide you with a Lean (Six Sigma) toolkit that you can use in daily life at your organization.
3. Low entrance barriers
Consequently, we believe Lean Six Sigma should be accessible to all organizations, not just those with significant financial resources. All organizations can benefit from Lean Six Sigma, and therefore we believe that the barriers to entry should be as low as possible. We support this by recommending free, open-source tools, offering e-learning over traditional classes, and providing subscription-based access to knowledge.
4. IASSC Body of Knowledge
Because no single entity owns Lean, proving your skills can be challenging. Therefore, we believe the most reliable way to demonstrate your Lean expertise is through independent third-party certification. Currently, two globally recognized organizations offer this service: ASQ and IASSC. Since our courses are aligned with the IASSC Body of Knowledge, you’ll be well-prepared to pass their certification exam. For this reason, we choose not to issue our own certifications. Moreover, IASSC is widely respected for its rigorous exam standards. Consequently, after completing our training, you can confidently pursue certification through them.
5. Continuous improvement
In line with Lean philosophy, it is better to deliver 80% of your product or service on time than to deliver 100% too late. We act on this philosophy ourselves. Therefore, we have published the complete Lean curriculum on our e-learning platform. We are also gradually expanding to Six Sigma, while continuously improving existing modules. May we invite you to provide feedback on all or specific course modules, so that we can continuously improve them to maximize customer value? We will also continue to expand the course modules until we have covered the complete Lean Six Sigma Body of Knowledge.
