DMAIC Improvement Methodology
Week 1
We did this
And this
And the first
module of this
Week 3
we completed this
And started this
(DOE)

DMAIC Methodology Deliverables
Define Phase
Identify the product and/or process to be improved, and ensure that
resources are in place for the improvement project.
DELIVERABLES
D 1 : Project CTQs - The top few critical to quality customer requirements (CTQs) for a
product or process balanced against strategic DuPont Nylon business requirements.
D 2 : Approved Charter - A Team charter that describes the purpose & goals of a six
sigma project
D 3 : High-Level Process Map - A high-level process map that graphically displays the
major events occurring in the process.

DMAIC Methodology Deliverables
Measure Phase
Define the defect(s), gather baseline information about the
product or process, and establish improvement goals.
DELIVERABLES
M 4 : Project Y - Clearly defined output measure that is a measure of how well your process
or product is satisfying the project CTQ.
M 5 : Performance Standards for Project Y - Specification that defines acceptable values for
the output measure.
M 6 : Project Data Collection Plan and Validated Measurement System - A written strategy
for how you will collect the data that you will use in your project and validation of measurement
system capability.

DMAIC Methodology Deliverables
DELIVERABLES
M 7 : Data for Project Y - Data collected using the data collection plan to assess the
existing performance of the product or process.
M 8 : Process Capability for Project Y - An accurate assessment of how well your
product or process meets the performance standard for your project Y.
M 9 : Improvement Goal for Project Y - Specific goal for improving the product or
process performance.
Measure Phase

6. SARAL Six Sigma 6s

DMAIC Methodology Deliverables
Analyze Phase
Examine the data collected in the Measure phase in order to generate a
prioritized list of the sources of variation ( the Xs)
DELIVERABLES
A 10 : Prioritized List of All Xs - A list of all possible sources of variation in your process
that affect the output (Y)
A 11 : List of the Vital Few Xs - The small group of inputs or processes that account for
most of the variation of your project Y
A 12 :Quantified Financial Opportunity - the net financial benefit expected to result from
successful project completion

7. SARAL Six Sigma 6s
Page 7
DMAIC Methodology Deliverables
Improve Phase
Develop a solution to improving product or process performance and
confirm that the proposed solution will meet or exceed quality
improvement goals of the project
DELIVERABLES
I 13 : Proposed Solution - A solution for reducing variation (and defects) in the process.

Project Work ready for week 3
Based on what you learned in week 2, this is what you
should have done between weeks 2 & 3:
 Identify & Prioritize all possible Xs for your project
 Check if historical data are available for your Ys and priority Xs
 Do a Graphical Analysis of your data
 Identify Critical Xs with Statistical Tools
 Firm up the Financial Benefit for your project
 Identify the Improvement Strategy for your project
 Identify if you need to carry out DOE
 DOE design and implementation

Week 3
In week 3 we will………….
Listen to Project Report backs (spread over 3 days)
Complete Improve phase of DMAIC
Complete Control phase of DMAIC
Prepare to complete the projects

10. SARAL Six Sigma 6s

DMAIC Methodology Deliverables
Improve Phase
Develop a solution to improving product or process performance and
confirm that the proposed solution will meet or exceed quality
improvement goals of the project
DELIVERABLES
I 13 : Proposed Solution - A solution for reducing variation (and defects) in the process.
I 14 : Piloted Solution - Process improvement that you have tested in small scale in real
business environment

11. SARAL Six Sigma 6s

DMAIC Methodology Deliverables
Implement the solution, ensure that the solution is sustained,
and share the lessons learned in the improvement projects
throughout DuPont Nylon
Control Phase
.
DELIVERABLES
C 15 : Sustained solution - a fully implemented and statistically confirmed process
improvement that is supported with a control plan to ensure it remains in place over time
C 16 : Project documentation - the record of the key aspects of your six sigma project
C 17 : Translation opportunities - key learnings from your project that may be applicable
to other projects
