What is Six Sigma?

it is a set of quality-control techniques and tools that businesses


can use to eliminate defects and improve processes to help
boost their profits.
• Sigma Levels
Sigma Level A value from 1 to 6 that signifies the maximum
number of defects per million:
1. 1 Sigma = 690,000 defects/million = 31% accurate
2. 2 Sigma = 308,537 defects/million = 69.1463% accurate
3. 3 Sigma = 66,807 defects/million = 93.3193% accurate
4. 4 Sigma = 6,210 defects/million = 99.3790% accurate
5. 5 Sigma = 233 defects/million = 99.9767% accurate
6. 6 Sigma = 3.4 defects/million = 99.999997% accurate
• Goals of 6 Sigma
1. Dramatically lower costs
2. Improve customer satisfaction
3. Shorten time to market -
4. Reduce defects,scarp and re-work
5. Simplify operations
6. Improve competitive position
• The Principles of 6 Sigma
1. Focus on the customer
2. Continuous process improvement
3. Leading by example
4. Company wide implementation -
5. Business strategy integration -
6. Decision making using statistical analysis
• Six Sigma Key Concepts
• At its core, Six Sigma revolves around a few key concepts.

• Critical to Quality: Attributes most important to the customer


• Defect: Failing to deliver what the customer wants
• Process Capability: What your process can deliver
• Variation: What the customer sees and feels
• Stable Operations: Ensuring consistent, predictable processes to
improve what the customer sees and feels
• Design for Six Sigma (DFSS): Designing to meet customer needs
and process capability
• Six Sigma Methodology
• Six Sigma has two key methodologies:
• 1-DMAIC is used to improve an existing business process in a
project.
• 1- Define: Define the system, process flow mapping, requirements
of the customer , flowcharts and the project goals, specifically.
• 2-Measure: defect metrics, data collection, sampling
• 3-Analyze : Fishbone diagrams, failure analysis, root cause analysis
• 4-Improve: modeling, tolerance control, defect control, design
changes
• 5-Control: SPC control charts, performance management
• 2-DMADV : is used to create new product designs or process
designs in such a way a more predictable, mature and defect free
performance.
• 1-Define: formally define design activity objectives aligned with
customer requirements and the organization's strategy.
• 2-Measure: Identification of CTQs (critical for quality), product
capabilities, production process capacity, and risk assessment.
• 3-Analyze: Develop design alternatives, create a high-level design
and assess design capability to select the best design.
• 4-Design: Detailed design development, design improvement and
planning for design verification. This stage may require simulation.
• 5-Verify: Verify design and trial run for setup, implementation of
production process and delivery to process owners.
• Implementation roles
• Six Sigma defines the key roles for its successful
implementation
1- Executive leadership:including the CEO and members of top
management. They are responsible for setting a vision for the
implementation of Six Sigma.
2- Champions: take responsibility for implementing Six Sigma across
the organization in an integrated way
3- Master Black Belts: These are the people who conduct Six Sigma
Training and have work experience
4- Black Belts, Black Belts: They are the people who directly
participate in the implementation of Six sigma projects. they always
work on the project
5- Green Belts: are the employees who take up Six Sigma
implementation along with their other job responsibilities, operating
under the guidance of Black Belts.
