13. Six Sigma is Not NEW for Leading OrganizationsOrganizations have successfully benefitted from tools and conceptsthat are covered extensively in Six Sigma for decades. Some examplesare :Statistical Process Control which uses Control Charts

14. Total Quality Management

15. Process Management through Measurements of outputs

16. Project Management

17. Application of Statistical concepts like Hypothesis testing, Regression Analysis and Design of Experiments However, Benchmark Six Sigma has packaged these tools (through Green Belt, Black Belt and MBB programs) in a manner that makes it many times more powerful

18. Six Sigma ApplicabilitySix Sigma is a “Industry Independent” methodology and has beensuccessfully applied across:Manufacturing Industry including Automotives, Aerospace, Health Equipment, FMCG, Electronic Goods, Continuous Process Industries, Textiles, etc.

19. Service Industry including Telecom, Banking and Financial Services, Health Care, Hotels, IT, ITES, KPOs, Airlines, Cargo movement, Support Services, HR services, Marketing Services, etc.

20. R&D organizations or in R&D functions of various organizationsSix Sigma Results

21. Examples of Industrial ApplicationSix Sigma Methodology has been successfully applied in all Industries

22. Benchmark has had the opportunity to train close to 6000 persons from all Industries

23. Based on the combined experience of Benchmark Consultants, next few slides show the areas in which Six Sigma has been successfully applied in some of the Industries we have worked with (a sample).

24. We shall also look at select companies in each Industry that have successfully applied Six Sigma

25. We would also see which Engineering specializations have contributed to success in the highlighted areasSix Sigma :Industry Wide ApplicationFew Examples of Companies: Tata Motors, Ford, GM, Maruti, Telco.
