Remember,
At the end of Recognize Phase
One should be able to choose a
good project to work on based
on agreed criteria with top
management

Project Charter for Define Phase
Remember,
At the end of Define Phase
One should be able to state
what is the problem to be
solved, the goal to be reached
and the process to be
improved.
The charter is very important
since it sets the direction and
scope of the project.

Performance Measure (Data)
Operational Definition
(Data Collection Plan)
36
Check for Process Controllability Example of data collected using the Data Collection Plan
37
Compute for Process Sigma Level
Using Excel,
Sigma Level = Normsinv(Yield%) + 1.5 This is one common formula if raw data is in Counts of Good and Bad
Remember,
At the end of Measure Phase
One should be able to decide
GO or NO-GO on solving the
identified problem
If Go, go to Analyze Phase
If No-Go, move on to next
problem

Remember,
At the end of Analyze Phase
One should be able to find out
what is/are the Root Cause(s).
This will be the focus of
improvement because the
Root Cause has the biggest
contribution to the problem.
49
IMPROVE

52
53
54
Remember,
At the end of Improve Phase
One should be able to select
and apply the Best Solution
addressing the Root Cause(s).
This is based on the fact that
we were able to validate that
the Root Cause has the
biggest contribution to the
problem.

CONTROL

61
The worse way to manage a process is by giving only
verbal instructions!
62
63
Remember,
At the end of Control Phase
One should be able to sustain
the improved results and
handover the improved
process to its owners.
This phase leads to the closure
of the project and don’t forget
to celebrate the achievement.
