What is it?
The six sigma programme is a comprehensive and proven set of tools and techniques applied in a consistent, systematic fashion to better solve problems and optimise processes in all functional areas.
|
The major focal points of six sigma are:
- Understanding the process
- Eliminating waste
- Reducing variability, and
- Driving growth and innovation
Three general approaches:
- DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyse, Improve, Control)
- DFSS (Design for Six Sigma)
- Lean Six Sigma (Lean + 6S + Other Tools)
