This document discusses Six Sigma, which is a set of techniques for process improvement. It aims to reduce defects to 3.4 per million opportunities by following the DMAIC methodology (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control). Six Sigma seeks to eliminate defects through statistical analysis and has benefits like quality improvement, cost reduction, and increased profits. It uses tools like flowcharts, control charts, and Pareto charts. Projects are led by Belts (Yellow, Green, Black, Master Black) trained in Six Sigma.

3. Set of techniques and tools for process and quality improvement
It follows statistical approach to measure the variation or defects
in the product, process or service
It ensures continuous improvement by eliminating defects
It seeks to improve the quality of output by the process of
identifying, reducing and eliminating defects
It ensures 99.99966% of accuracy in the output
It allows only 3.4 defects out of one million of products
manufactured
Six sigma projects are led by individuals selected and trained in
application of this method
6. Helps in reducing the cost by improving the efficiency level
Determine how various processes could put an impact on the revenue
Improves the profitability of firm by meeting customer’s demand in a
better way
To make six sigma successful in financial management it should be
guided through quantitative approach to measure the KPIs rather than
qualitative approach
Acts as a simulation in financial decisions
Reduces financial risk by providing better portfolio analysis
Helps in keeping a control over the spending
Reduces auditing, invoicing and documentation errors
7. Define- It denotes the identification of customers need and defining their expectations and
priorities based on the quality of product. It also involves the identification of business
objective and the need for six sigma to achieve that objective
Measure-It denotes measuring of the existing process involved in manufacture of product ,
where the process is lacking which is giving a rise to the defects
Analyze-It involves analyzing the process to identify the causes of defects
Improve-It involves steps to be taken to remove the defects and improve the performance of
the system
Control-Maintaining the improvements made and ensuring a control in future also to eliminate
defects
8. Quality leader- These are the executives or managers who guide the direction of six
sigma professionals in the direction of organization’s objective.
Master Black Belt- These are the six sigma professionals trained in depth with six sigma
tools and techniques for process improvement. They are involves in taking strategic
decisions and training black belt and green belt members.
Black Belt- These professionals work and lead the projects on quality improvement.
They train and coaches project team members.
Green Belt- They assist in completing the projects by doing data analysis.
Yellow Belt- This belt is provided on completion of the basic foundational course on six
sigma.
9. Improved quality of the products with minimal defect
Reduced cycle time with improved process
Improved efficiency and productivity leading to better output
Increased customer satisfaction and customer equity
Removal of non-value adding activities
Gained reputation for reliable product and services
Better revenue generation by achieving competitive advantage
on quality
10. Flowcharts:- This chart depicts the whole process involved right from the supplier to the customer. It
helps in analyzing the process from input to output defining each stage involved
Run-charts:- These charts are used to observe the data patterns to figure out the trend. It thus helps in
making predictions
Pareto-charts:- These charts are based on the pareto principle that says about 80% of problems occur
due to 20% causes. Example – 80% of customer complaints are due to bad quality of product
Check-sheets:- Check-sheets helps in systematically collect and store data with the use of tally or
frequency distribution
Cause and effect diagram:- Diagrams showing various causes and related effects
Process control charts:- Time sequenced charts to keep a control over the activities completion time in
the project
Failure mode and effect analysis:- This is an analysis process done to figure out what would be the
impact level for various failures
