The History of Six Sigma Six Sigma originated at Motorola in 1982 Early adoptors Allied Signal (Honeywell) General Electric Six Sigma management philosophy today A well-developed, thorough approach to quality improvement Uses statistics and management by fact Is effective in manufacturing and services firms
Defining Six Sigma (6 ) Six Sigma: A comprehensive and flexible system for achieving, sustaining and maximizing business success. Six sigma is uniquely driven by a close understanding of customer needs, disciplined use of facts, data, and statistical analysis and diligent attention to managing, improving, and reinventing business processes. - Peter S. Pande6
Defining Six Sigma (6 ) The Greek symbol (sigma) refers to the amount of variation in a process around the mean value for that process Processes have acceptable upper and lower limits Six Sigma is concerned with reducing the variations to get more output within those limits
Defining Six Sigma (6 ) In the chart below, 64.6% of the measures are between the upper and lower limits This is a 1 process Reducing the variations in the process will bring a higher percentage within the acceptable limits Mean (亮) +1-1-2 +2-3 +3 34.13 %34.13 % 13.06 % 2.14 % 13.06 % 2.14 % 0.13 % 0.13 % Lower Limit Upper Limit
The 6 Difference What is the Six Sigma difference ? one typo per page (3 sigma) vs. one typo per library (6 sigma) playing golf at a 6 sigma level means missing one putt every 163 years
Brainstorming Exercise: Where are the variations? Identify six processes in your business that have variations in the output. (HINT: manufacturing, purchasing, inventory, forecasting, product design, customer service, accounting...)
The Six Sigma Roadmap Five steps to implementing Six Sigma9 1. Identify core processes and key customers 2. Define customer requirements 3. Measure current performance 4. Prioritize, analyze, implement improvements 5. Expand and integrate the Six Sigma system

Key Six Sigma Roles Green Belts Trained in the use of statistical tools Lead project teams Participate on project teams
A Real-World Example General Electrics 6 results: - reduced invoice defects and disputes with a key customer by 98% - saved $1 million annually in contract review process (GE Capital) - developed breakthrough technology that reduced medical scan times to 30 seconds from 3 minutes - improved a key call center performance measure from 76% 99% - reduced vibrations in Power System rotors by 300% - saved $320 million in less than two years, $750 million in three years
Exercise 1) If you have a 2 sigma process, what percentage of the output is within spec ? 2) Six Sigma originated at Honeywell T/F 3) Six Sigma focuses on the customer T/F 4) What does the Greek symbol sigma represent? 5) Six Sigma utilizes fact-based decision making T/F 6) Continuous improvement requires feedback and adjustments to ensure achievement of business objectives T/F ANSWERS: 1) 94.38%, 2) False, 3)True, 4)Standard deviation, 5) True, 6) True
Six Sigma Summary Project-driven management philosophy Relies on fact-based decision making (statistical tools) Requires top-down support Requires an infrastructure that can support quality project management Has been shown to have markedly positive impacts on business performance
