Body
Perkins Technical Services Inc. was recently awarded a nearly $500 million contact to provide lean Six Sigma consulting, process management and organizational development throughout the U.S. Army Aviation & Missile Command. Perkins has subcontracted much of the work. One of the subcontractors is Bellwether Services, a niche lean Six Sigma consultancy. Bellwether has its headquarters in Stockbridge, Georgia, with affiliates in Alabama, California, Colorado, Illinois and Tennessee, among other states.

The U.S. Army Aviation & Missile Command was established in 1997 as a readiness agent to develop, acquire, field and sustain Army aviation and missile weapons systems. It first started using lean in 2002 as a tool to enable transformation and wage the War on Terror. By 2004, it had also started using Six Sigma to increase efficiency and reduce cycle times.
