    Six Sigma aims to reduce defects and improve processes by reducing standard deviations from the mean to 3.4 defects per million opportunities. It was developed at Motorola in the 1970s to improve quality and reduce costs. Six Sigma follows the DMAIC and DMADV methodologies which use tools like cause-and-effect diagrams and control charts to identify and resolve issues over five phases. The methodology employs roles like Champions, Master Black Belts and Black Belts to implement projects and achieve quantifiable financial returns and process improvements.

    Six

    Sigma stands for Six Standard Deviations from mean. Six Sigma methodology provides the techniques and tools to improve the capability and reduce the defects in any process. Today you can apply Six Sigma to many fields such as Services, Medical and Insurance Procedures, Call Centers.

    The

    core of Six Sigma was born at Motorola in the 1970s out of senior executive Art Sundry's criticism of Motorolas bad quality. As a result of this criticism, the company discovered a connection between increases in quality and decreases in costs of production.

    Continuous

    efforts to achieve stable and predictable process results are of vital importance to business success.

    clear focus on achieving measurable and quantifiable financial returns from any Six Sigma project. special infrastructure of "Champions", "Master Black Belts", "Black Belts", "Green Belts", etc. to lead and implement the Six Sigma approach

    Six

    Sigma projects follow two project methodologies inspired by Deming's PlanDo-Check-Act Cycle. These methodologies, composed of five phases each, bear the acronyms DMAIC and DMADV.

    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.

    Benefits
