The Fundamentals of Six Sigma

BACK TO LIST

Six Sigma provides a set of integrated tools and methods for using statistical techniques to meet business goals. By itself, it provides a powerful approach for focusing improvements on the highest-value areas, and of ensuring strong Return-On-Investment (ROI). Combined with other improvement initiatives, such as Capability Maturity Model (CMM), Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI), or the International Organization of Standards (ISO), the benefits grow exponentially. Many engineering organizations (including Boeing, Lockheed-Martin, and Northrop Grumman) have already implemented Six Sigma programs. This presentation will discuss the basics of how to implement Six Sigma. Topics include terms, roles, strategies, and lessons learned. Examples will be drawn from successful implementations across industry.
