What is Six Sigma?
Six Sigma at many organizations simply means a measure of quality that strives for near perfection. Six Sigma is a disciplined, data-driven approach and methodology for eliminating defects in any process.
![Page 2: 6sigma](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042717/55cf9007550346703ba2838e/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
The statistical representation of Six Sigma describes quantitatively how a process is performing. To achieve Six Sigma, a process must not produce more than 3.4 defects per million opportunities. A Six Sigma defect is defined as anything outside of customer specifications.
![Page 3: 6sigma](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042717/55cf9007550346703ba2838e/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Origin and meaning of the term "six sigma process"
Sigma (the lower-case Greek letter s) is used to represent the standard deviation of a statistical population. The term "six sigma process" comes from the notion that if one has six standard deviations between the process mean and the nearest specification limit, there will be practically no items that fail to meet
![Page 4: 6sigma](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042717/55cf9007550346703ba2838e/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
In a capability study, the number of standard deviations between the process mean and the nearest specification limit is given in sigma units. As process standard deviation goes up, or the mean of the process moves away from the center of the tolerance, decreasing the sigma number and increasing the likelihood of items outside specification.

What is DMAIC ?
• A logical and structured approach to problem solving and process improvement
• An iterative process (continuous improvement)
• A quality tool with focus on change management
![Page 14: 6sigma](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042717/55cf9007550346703ba2838e/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
When To Use DMAIC?• The DMAIC methodology should be used
when a product or process is in existence at your company
• but is not meeting customer specification or is not performing adequately.

What is DMADV Methodology?
The acronym DMADV sounds pretty much similar to DMAIC. The similarity ends after the first three letters DMA.
DMADV is also known as DFSS, an abbreviation of "Design For Six Sigma
![Page 23: 6sigma](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042717/55cf9007550346703ba2838e/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
When To Use DMADV?
The DMADV methodology, instead of the DMAIC methodology, should be used when:
A product or process is not in existence at your company and one needs to be developed
The existing product or process exists and has been optimized (using either DMAIC or not) and still doesn't meet the level of customer specification or six sigma level

Difference Between DMAIC And DMADV
The difference, as one can see now, exists only in the way last two steps are handled. In DMADV, instead of the Improve and Control steps which focuses on readjusting and controlling by one way or other, deals with redesigning the process to fit customer needs.
![Page 31: 6sigma](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042717/55cf9007550346703ba2838e/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Difference Between DMAIC And DMADV
The DMADV methodology can not be better explained than by comparing it with DMAIC methodology despite their fundamental differences.

6 Sigma Training
Executive Leadership includes the CEO and other members of
top management. They are responsible for setting up a vision for Six Sigma implementation. They also empower the other role holders with the freedom and resources to explore new ideas for breakthrough improvements.
![Page 33: 6sigma](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042717/55cf9007550346703ba2838e/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
CHAMPIONS Champions are responsible for Six Sigma
implementation across the organization in an integrated manner. The Executive Leadership draws them from upper management. Champions also act as mentors to Black Belts.

GREEN BELTS
Green Belts are the persons, trained on the
improvement methodology of Six Sigma,
who will lead a process or quality
improvement team as "part" of their job.
Extensive product/process knowledge in
their company is a must in their task of
effecting such improvement.
![Page 35: 6sigma](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042717/55cf9007550346703ba2838e/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
BLACK BELTS
Black Belts are the persons, usually selected
from the Green Belts, to spearhead process
improvement projects under the Six Sigma
implementation, on a "full-time" basis. They
act as agents of change, and need to
possess statistical abilities, leadership
qualities and interpersonal skills.
