At the Idaho State Police Headquarters (ISP), a red ribbon was cut after one year of construction to usher in the Lean inspired $6M facility, which, for the first time ever, houses the forensics, administrative, investigative and patrol divisions all in the same building. By utilizing Lean Six Sigma principles in the design of the new facility, ISP has been able to greatly reduce the amount of steps involved in processing evidence, which allows them to solve crimes faster, and save more lives. Colonel Ked Wills exclaims, “Today, we are thankful for those who are here that see that and are able to help us as we realize these goals.” Equipped with better technology, partnered with the ability to process more efficiently, the Idaho State Police leads the way with Lean Six Sigma and sets a new precedent for law enforcement around the globe.
