Six Sigma is a data-driven methodology for improving processes by reducing variation. The goal of Six Sigma is to achieve no more than 3.4 defects per million opportunities. Higher sigma levels correspond to lower defect rates and costs of poor quality. The DMAIC methodology guides process improvement projects through defining problems, measuring processes, analyzing root causes, improving processes, and controlling gains. Green Belts, Black Belts, and Champions work together to execute Six Sigma projects within an organization.
In today's media we always here the words Six Sigma when we talk about process improvement. However; we really do not stop to think about what it really means. In some cases today, in 2015, the meaning of Six Sigma, is distorted.

Relevance of Higher Education. How to measure it? The case of masters of engi...AM Publications
Existing evaluation models for higher education have, mainly, accreditation purposes, and evaluate the
efficiency of training programs, that is to say, the degree of suitability between the educational results and the
objectives of the program. However, it is not guaranteed that those objectives adequate to the needs and real interests
of students and stakeholders, that is to say, they do not assess the relevance of the programs, a very important aspect
in developing countries. From the review of experiences, this paper proposes a model for evaluating the relevance of
engineering masters program, and applies it to the case of a master’s degree at the University of Piura, Peru. We
conclude that the proposed model is applicable to other masters program, offers an objective way for determining is a
training program keep being relevant, and identifies improvement opportunities
A study Report on Implementation of GIS in Solid Waste ManagementAM Publications
Increasing human population and economic development and urbanization has resulted in generation of huge quantities of municipal solid waste (MSW). It involves many activities like collection, transportation and disposal of wastes. There is tremendous amount of loss in terms of environment degradation, health hazards and economic descend, due to direct disposal of waste. It is better to segregate waste at initial stages where it is generated. Planners are thus forced to consider alternate and available means of disposal, especially by minimizing damage to the ecosystem and human population. GIS has proved to be boon to such planners by visualizing the real solid waste situations and facilitating route analysis through mapping. A Geographic Information System (GIS) is a computer system for capturing, storing, checking and displaying data related to positions on Earth’s surface.
Barriers to Implement Lean Principles in the Indian Construction IndustryAM Publications
Lean construction emerged from attempts of transferring and applying the Japanese Lean production
philosophy to the construction industry. Lean construction is a confluence of ideas including continuous
improvement, flattened organization structure, efficient usage of resources, elimination of waste, and cooperative
supply chain. Based on the success of Lean Production in manufacturing and the development of Lean Construction
in countries such as Brazil, Denmark and the USA, the application of Lean Construction is currently debated in India.
The aim of the study is identification of barriers to successful implementation of lean construction in the Indian
construction sector. The data was collected by questionnaire survey of project managers of building construction
organizations and senior consultants of architectural and project management firms. The data collected was then
analyzed to rank the main barriers and lean principles are suggested to overcome these barriers

A term (Greek) used in statistics to represent standard deviation from mean value, an indicator of the degree of variation in a set of a process.
Sigma measures how far a given process deviates from perfection. Higher sigma capability, better performance
Six Sigma - A highly disciplined process that enables organizations deliver nearly perfect products and services.
The figure of six arrived statistically from current average maturity of most business enterprises
A philosophy and a goal: as perfect as practically possible.
A methodology and a symbol of quality
Six Sigma is a quality management methodology that streamlines and transforms business processes to achieve more with less. Six Sigma Yellow Belt is part of the Six Sigma process improvement certification for quality management.

That means a process efficiency of 99.99966%
LSL USLT
Target
+6-6
USL: Upper Specification Limit for a Performance Standard.
Anything above this is a defect.
LSL: Lower Specification Limit for a Performance Standard.
Anything below this is a defect.
Target: Ideally the middle point of USL & LSL.
In other words, process standard deviation () should be so less that your process
performance can fit within the customer specified limits. So, no matter how much your process
deviates from target, you always meet what customer wants.

6. μ
σ
What’s in a name?
Sigma is the Greek letter representing the standard
deviation of a population of data.
Sigma is a measure
of variation
(the data spread)
7. What does variation mean?
Variation means that a
process does not produce
the same result (the “Y”)
every time.
Some variation will exist in
all processes.
Variation directly affects customer experiences.
Customers do not feel averages!
