Lean and Six Sigma are indeed popular methodologies for process improvement, but they are not the only systems available for this purpose. There are various other methodologies and tools that organizations can utilize to enhance efficiency, reduce waste, and improve quality.

For example, methodologies such as Total Quality Management (TQM), Business Process Reengineering (BPR), and Agile all focus on different aspects of process improvement and have their own unique approaches and tools. Each of these methodologies can be applied in various industries, not confined to just healthcare or manufacturing, indicating a broader array of systems available for pursuing process improvements.

It's important to recognize the diversity of methods available because each organization may benefit from different strategies depending on its specific needs, culture, and business environment. This diversity allows organizations to tailor their approach to best suit their particular process improvement goals.
