customer (i.e.‚ in terms of surface finish). The goal of the Six Sigma strategy is to improve the quality of process outputs by addressing errors through minimizing variability in the manufacturing process – i.e.‚ the production process can statistically be expected to be free of errors or defects at the Six Sigma confidence level (effectively only 3.4 defects per million). In the case of a manufacturing entity like TMM‚ Six Sigma could be implemented through the so-called “DMAIC” methodology

Six Sigma is a data-based methodology to improve performance by reducing variability. It requires thorough understanding of product and process knowledge and is completely driven by customer expectations.In other words‚ it is a methodology to achieve 3.4 defects per million opportunities. It can also be used to bring breakthrough improvements in the process. It focuses on the bottom-line and is a proven methodology for problem solving.Goals of Six Sigma * To reduce variation * To reduce defects

case talks about John Smithers and his experience with the new Six Sigma Program at Sigtek. The program was implemented by the parent company of Sigtek and Smithers and a colleague‚ Sam Murphy‚ were both selected to learn about this program from Telwork (the parent company) and then run the program to teach about change to the employees at Sigtek. Problems: The main problem that is seen in this case study is the fact that the Six Sigma program that was implemented to bring change was not working

What is Six Sigma? Six Sigma is a structured and disciplined process which is designed to deliver product and services which are perfect on a constant basis. Six Sigma means at many organizations are simply means a measure of quality that strives for near perfection. Six Sigma is associated with process capabilities of greater than 1.5‚ which is called ‘World class Performance’. Sigma is statistical terms which connotes with standard deviation of process measured about its mean. Six Sigma refers
