1. Deployment Approach From Initialization to Self Sufficiency

5. Management System Methodology Metrics and Goals Tools + + + Six Sigma Described Six Sigma is the way you run your business. It is not just about quality, it is a business & process management system, and one of the many outputs is improved quality. – A group of interactive and dependent activities which operate synchronously and in control to repeatedly achieve an expected result with little or no Management intervention required System – An enterprise wide strategy that recognizes problematic areas of the business, defines improvement efforts and projects, determines and implements data driven breakthrough level solutions…..in a predictable and repeatable manner to improve business results Six Sigma System

6. RESULTS FROM SIX SIGMA IMPLEMENTATIONS Inferior Below Average Above Average Excellent TOTAL QUANTITY OF IMPLEMENTATIONS How Six Sigma is Implemented and Applied Will Determine the Results Categorization of Results

7. Quantification of Results Multiple Factors Determine the Results Obtained …….. Y=f (X)

8. Factors that Influence Results X 1 = Senior Executive engagement and commitment X 2 = Up front planning X 3 = Infrastructure Development X 4 = Proactive Champions that see the power of Six Sigma X 5 = Full-time Black Belts from “Among the Best” X 6 = Process Management through Green and Yellow Belts X 7 = Black Belts Project selection that makes an impact on the bottom line of the business X 8 = Financial evaluation system X 9 = Metrics and goals linked to corporate strategy for progress tracking X 10 = Project tracking system to measure progress Y(results) = f(X) Process Management Initialization

9. Initialization – An enterprise wide effort that recognizes problematic areas of the business, defines improvement efforts and projects, determines and implements data driven breakthrough level solutions…..in a predictable and repeatable manner to improve business results Six Sigma System – The process of preparing a company for the development of the necessary infrastructure required to achieve excellent results from a Six Sigma implementation and to achieve self-sufficiency Initialization – The various elements (activities) of a system that must exist to allow the predictable and continuous operation of that system to achieve expected results Infrastructure

26. Business & Process Management System Quality Management System Quality Management - The set of strategies, tactics and practices collectively used as a Company to competitively achieve business objectives and to satisfy customers. Where Most Start The First Realization Business and Process Management - The way we view our business efforts, set our expectations, determine our decisions, and the way we lead the Company to optimally satisfy all of our stakeholders. Core Competency What is Ultimately Achieved Core Competency - The intellectual knowledge and capability of employees to quickly and accurately solve problems, to align and optimize business process and to make better decisions The Path to Self Sufficiency 1 2 3 Six Sigma becomes the “Way We Think and Work”
