Six SIGMA Methodology

The quality is the foundational building block of all kinds of industries. An industry's growth
depends on its productivity. The consistency of an industry's production is also unavoidable. SIX
SIGMA - Statistical representation is a quality measurement process that helps the organisation
to improve their quality. Six Sigma is a systematic process of "improvement of quality via a
disciplined data analysis approach and an improvement of the organisational process by
eliminating defects and/or obstacles that prevent organisations from achieving perfection"

Six sigma refers to the total number of weaknesses found in organisation. According to Six
Sigma, any defect type is considered to be the defect apart from the customer specification.
The mathematical representation of the Six Sigma makes it possible to learn how a method
performs on quantitative aspects. Six Sigma argues that a flaw is a commodity or the company
operation non-conformity (Antony, 2006).

Becoming that the basic purpose of the Six Sigma is to enhance the process mentioned, Six
Sigma is regarded a recognized brand or trade mark by means of measurement-based strategy.
Six Sigma has to apply its own rules and procedures. The method should not create defects
greater than 3.4 to achieve this service mark. These numbers of defects are known as the rate
of defects should not exceed the 3.4 million chance rate." The number of defects can be
determined by estimating the Six Sigma. There is a sigma calculator to assist in measuring this.

Six Sigma stands for the mean of Six Standard Deviations, Sigma is the Greek letter used in
statistical statistics to describe standard deviations. The Six Sigma methodology offers the
techniques and instruments required for increasing the capacity and reducing defects in any
process. A "Six Sigma" process requires the use of 12 standard process performance deviations
from the upper and lower requirements. Essentially, process variance is minimised so as not to
reach the design cap by more than 3,4 parts per million. The more the sigma, the stronger. The
word Six Sigma also refers to the theory, objective and/or technique used to reduce waste and
maximise the efficiency, cost and time performance of a company. A number of successful
projects reach six Sigma implementation.
Improvements and reduction of variance are accomplished by implementing projects for Six
Sigma enhancement which are carried out in turn, either according to DMAIC (Define, Measure,
Assess, Improve, Control) or according to DMADV methodological steps. The major participants
in implementing Six Sigma enhancement projects are Black Belts & Green Belts.

History:

Six Sigma emerged from a variety of activities aimed at improving development processes and
the removal of defects but eventually expanded its scope to include additional business
processes. Six Sigma describes a defect as a process output which fails to meet customer
requirements or may lead to an output which fails to meet the customer specifications. First in
1986, Bill Smith formulated the specifics of the Motorola approach. Six Sigma has been heavily
inspired by the work of pioneers such as Shewhart, Deming, Juran, Ishikawa, Taguchi, etc.. six
decades earlier quality improvement methodologies such as quality management, TQM, Zero
defects.

The word "Six Sigma" comes from a mathematical area called process capacity analysis. The
ability of production processes to generate a high percent of output in compliance with
requirements was originally discussed. The ability of production processes to generate a high
percent of output in compliance with requirements was originally discussed. In the short term,
the processes with "six sigma quality" are projected to generate long-term defect levels below
3,4 defects per million opportunities (DPMO). The implicit aim of Six Sigma is to improve or
improve all processes to this quality. Six Sigma is Motorola's registered trademark and service
mark. Since 2006, the Six Sigma savings of Motorola had surpassed US$17 billion. Honeywell
(formerly known as the Allied Signal) and General Electric where the system was introduced by
Jack Welch are also early adopters of Six Sigma who achieved a well-published success. Around
two-thirds of the Fortune 500 companies had introduce Six Sigma programmes by late the
nineties in order to decrease costs and increase results (Atmaca & Girenes, 2013).

Methodology:

It comprises the concepts that characterise Six Sigma in its present form. It can prove to make
life very difficult for any person interested to understand these principles no matter how
serious or trivial the topic could first: You would actually benefit even more from the Six Sigma
Training if you take the time to check out the practical implementation and explanations of the
use or use of Six Sigma than if you had done this on your own, with only meanings and ideas.
You need to understand specifically how this definition can function or will work in a particular
industry rather than stating that six Sigma provides evidence and measuring that can result in
better solutions for a variety of industries. Six Sigma initiatives, for example, can be produced in
the manufacturing sector to improve efficiency and reduce the number of defects. That is
originally what Six Sigma was created to do after all. However, suggest Six Sigma Preparation
for customer service if you are going to take a note. You may use the Six Sigma method to find a
more effective customer flow and manage customers' grievances, or to return them if you are
running a shop.

Ultimately, 6 Sigma trainings can be used in almost every field, as long as the right guidelines
are defined and the right research is performed. Naturally in an industry with no product per se,
you wouldn't care about product enhancements. When it comes to choosing to win six sigma
projects, you are not expected to just jump in straight. You must detect the problems you
attempt to understand and then find out how your corporation or company is affected by this
problem. Having done so you have to decide if a data-based factual analysis would help to solve
the above-mentioned problem. If it is, Six Sigma Projects will work right. If not, you will have to
find a more technique for problem solving (Mehrjerdi, 2011).

The best thing about Six Sigma's functional implementation is that it's never twice the same. In
their projects for improving processes, some only use such instruments or parts of the six-sigma
process, while others use it constantly to optimise the benefits of improving processes. It
provides a structured response to improving the process, but is still as versatile as it should be.
