Six Sigma is a data-driven methodology for improving processes by reducing variability. It was developed by Motorola in the 1980s and aims for near perfect processes with fewer than 3.4 defects per million opportunities. The Six Sigma methodology uses statistical tools and involves defining problems, measuring processes, analyzing data, improving processes, and controlling them. It focuses on customer satisfaction and uses roles like Black Belts, Green Belts, and Master Black Belts. Many large companies have implemented Six Sigma and achieved savings of 1-4.5% of revenue through reduced costs and improved quality.

10. ConclusionSIX SIGMA A highly disciplined process that helps us focus on developing and delivering near-perfect products and services.

11. The word Six Sigma is a statistical term that measures how far a given process deviates from perfection.

12. The central idea behind Six Sigma is that if you can measure how many “defects” you have in a process, you can systematically figure out how to eliminate them and get as close to “zero defects” as possible.meaning A term used in statistics to represent standard deviation, an indicator of the degree of variation in a set of a process

29. The term “Six Sigma” was coined by Bill Smith, an engineer with Motorola

30. Late 1970s - Motorola started experimenting with problem solving through statistical analysis

31. 1987 - Motorola officially launched it’s Six Sigma program

32. Motorola saved more than $ 15 billion in the first 10 years of its Six Sigma effortThe Growth Of Six SIGMAThe company that perfected Six Sigma

33. Jack Welch launched Six Sigma at GE in Jan,1996
