The core of six sigma lies in the better utilization of resources available in the organization to deliver zero defect products and services to the end users. While implementing Six Sigma in an organization there are several other processes that are implemented as a part of Six Sigma. With Six Sigma having six phases there are various processes that make up these six phases. One of the processes used in six sigma is Quality Function Deployment (QFD). QFD was developed by a Japanese innovator called Dr. Yoji Akao. Dr. Yoji Akao believed that bringing in a personal interface for each client is of utmost importance as it will help in a personalized touch for each individual in modern manufacture and business. The growing distance between a manufacturer and the end user was yet another factor for QFD to come into existence. Quality Function Deployment links the needs of the end user or customer with design, development, engineering, manufacturing and other functions like service fu

Six Sigma and the smaller benefits Apart from the quality of the products and services that is affected after the implementation of Six Sigma there are many other factors although may look small but have a big effect on the overall performance of the organization. This comes as a bonus with the Six Sigma work culture that will percolate down the line in all processes and in turn will surely improve all the processes that come in contact or in preview of the six sigma strategies. Although at core six sigma is involved with identifying and removing the defects of a particular process or organization yet it leaves its impact on the whole organization and gets some remarkable changes from the old order. The first and foremost improvement that comes there is the removal of defects as is the basic requirement for any six sigma project. The improvements are a result of an organized and well thought out campaign that is run by the six sigma team on the process or a part of the process of t

Jumping over the hurdles in Six Sigma Implementation Whenever a new strategy is implemented in an organization it faces resistance from many quarters although everyone knows the benefits and the roles they have been assigned still resistance in inevitable. This resistance stems from insecurity and an unwillingness to change and get out of the comfort zone. The resistance to change if not overcome will ultimately lead to the failure of the strategy or the scrapping of the system that is in the process of being implemented in the organization. Same is the case of any six sigma Project that is being started in an organization to bring one of its processes to zero defect. As Six sigma brings in a cultural change in an organization thus employee are bound to resist its implementation. The employees may think that the implementation of six sigma will lead to loss of job for them or their peers in the organization or may lead to a change in their profile or department. The Employees may

Minitab is an essential tool in the application of Six sigma without which the Six sigma team cant even think of moving an inch forward. The name of Six Sigma and Minitab is taken in the same breath by Six Sigma professionals over the years. This has been the trusted tool for Six Sigma Professionals all across the world. As analyzing data is a crucial function of Six Sigma and needs to performed with accuracy thus Minitab needs to be in the tool kit of each individual who is working on Six sigma. Many people in the Six Sigma arena sometimes ask if Excel can be used over Minitab. One can use Minitab instead of Excel but consider the facilities that are provided by Minitab over Excel. For every analysis in Excel one will have to search and Define Macros whereas in Minitab all functions are available at a click of mouse. Many professionals will have a tendency of using Minitab and Excel side by side while working with data for Six Sigma. Six Sigma data may sometimes tend to be mag

The process of Topic selection for Six Sigma Implementing Six Sigma in the organization means a lot of planning and lot of choosing. The choices can be the processes on which you need to implement six sigma or the men and techniques that are going to be helpful in the implementation and taking the project to new heights. Six Sigma certification, training and implementation is laden with various hurdles that come in the way of the team as a whole or in the way of an individual while working on Six sigma. The first hurdle that a team or a individual as a six sigma black belt has to face is the selection of the project that he and the team will be implementing. The choice of the project is critical as the success of the project depends upon the choice of the project. One thing that needs to be kept in mind is that the project needs to have a lasting effect on the whole organization. Keeping this thing in mind one has to check the areas of improvement in the organization on which dep

Six Sigma in PracticeSix Sigma in Practice There has been a lot of deliberation about Six Sigma and Sigma certification for individual employees. Since its a new concept and involves lot of training from professional organizations that have developed their core competencies in imparting six sigma training and certifications to employees who really want to make it big for themselves and their organizations. Although Six Sigma is a new concept yet it has not stopped fortune 500 companies to embrace it and make their success stories larger than life. The result is that Six Sigma is now used by 82% of the Fortune 100 companies. This is proof enough for small and mid sized organizations to embrace and walk on the path of Six Sigma just like their bigger cousins. The main focus of Six Sigma remains on increasing the profit margins of an organization. The effectiveness of implementing all tools and techniques is measured in terms of the revenue earned at he end of the day. Six Sigma ha

Thus if one chooses to do a six sigma project a real life problem has to be taken from the organization which will be of benefit to the organization. A business case can form a basis for taking up a six sigma project. Once implemented the six sigma project has to eradicate and minimize the problem that is eating into the organization s profits/production. The problem that has been picked up in the six sigma project has to be of major importance to the organization. Thus one needs to select a problem that is really plaguing the organization and making the management concerned about it. The ultimate aim of the project has to be increase in the efficiency and productivity of the organization. The project that one is taking up should have a reasonable scope that is should be possible to complete that project in a specific time period of 3-6 months. The results that one has

ANOVA a statistical tool in Six Sigma Analysis of Variance or ANOVA forms an integral part of six sigma and is quite widely used not only in six sigma techniques but also in many other management techniques. The roots of ANOVA were sowed in the early 1800. ANOVAs General Linear Model is extensively used in Six sigma. It is a statistical tool and is used to test for differences in the means over a large set of data that is collected in the process of the six sigma project. This tool tests to check if the difference between the means of each level is more than the variation within each level. This test is quite effective in testing the effect of two or more factors with several levels. This can be carried out with a single factor or in combination on a dependant variable. Thus the use of ANOVA GLM in six sigma holds a special consideration while measuring the cause and effect of the defects that have been cropping up in the process or a system.

Sampling in Six Sigma Sampling in Six sigma is an important aspect and if the sampling is not done with proper care the whole of the project may be ruined. Sampling involves the measuring of large number of data in simple measurement techniques so that a inference for the whole population can be drawn. Thus sampling can be defined as a method to draw inference about characteristics from a large group of items by examining a few individual elements which represent the whole group. This method of analyzing data is really effective in Six sigma as one is able to handle large numbers of data with a small group of elements that will give the inference to the users to be used as a benchmark. This method is quite effective as a cost saving measure. Consider testing a car for the aftermaths of a crash if we crash all the cars for testing it the cost will not really be in reach of any organization and the method is not viable. Thus sampling is done and an inference is drawn which is taken
