How many times you have faced problems due to customers rejecting your product/service because of defects or faulty specifications? Would you not have wished your processes to run at 100% perfection? 100% perfection might seem to be too ideal to achieve in the real world but 99.9996% is possible.

What is Six Sigma?

The term “Six Sigma” refers to the capability of processes to produce output within specifications with high degree of precision. In particular, processes that operate with six sigma quality produce at defect levels below 3.4 defects per million opportunities (DPMO). Six Sigma ’ inherent goal is to improve all processes to that level of quality or better.

Six Sigma is a set of tools used for making business decisions originally developed by Motorola to systematically improve processes by eliminating defects. A defect is defined as nonconformity of a product or service to its specifications. While the particulars of the methodology were originally formulated by Bill Smith at Motorola in 1986, Six Sigma is heavily inspired by six preceding decades of quality improvement methodologies such as quality control, TQM, and Zero Defects.

Use of Six Sigma

Organizations use Six Sigma to reduce variation in products and processes, but the net effect of any Six Sigma intervention is what people are really looking for- fewer defects, shorter cycle times, increased capacity and throughput, lower costs, higher revenues and reduced capital expenditures. Organizations deploying Six Sigma over a long term see the culture of the organization getting transformed to a more systematic problem-solving approach and more importantly, people making data driven decisions.
