The Yellow Belt will rely mostly on customer-level metrics, such as voice of the customer, along with efficiency metrics such as ease of use or cycle time (the time it takes to complete an activity) to identify opportunities for improvement. When it comes to business value, the Yellow Belt’s primary focus is making work easier to perform and more satisfying to consume by reducing waste.
