Understanding and Implementation of Six Sigma in an Organization
Abstract
Six Sigma is a data driven approach that can help any organization, whatever sector or field it might be operating in, to bring down inefficiencies and save time and money by reducing ‘quality variations’. Several medium and large sized Indian Organization have been relying on Six Sigma and they have implemented it fully, partially or with modifications to suit their needs. Most managers might have heard of Six Sigma but not everyone can expalin it. Also it is not easy to find how (or why) black belts, statistics, data mining and mapping come into it. This paper illustrates the key ingredients that one should consider before a Six Sigma programme is initiated in an organization. All these ingredients are essential for the successful application of Six Sigma principles to any business process.
