This document provides an overview of Design for Six Sigma (DFSS). DFSS is used when designing new products and processes to ensure they meet customer requirements and have minimal variation from the start. It is more effective than improving designs after launch using traditional Six Sigma. DFSS involves cross-functional teams to predict and design quality into new offerings from the beginning. It can dramatically reduce design changes late in development and get products to market faster at lower cost. Organizations need to use DFSS to design world-class products and services that meet customer needs.
