What is Six Sigma?

“A must attend
Six Sigma is a powerful methodology that can be used to improve business processes. It is a struc-
Course for all tured approach to problem solving that can be applied to any process - manufacturing, sales, mar-
keting, IT, BPO, accounting, purchasing, you name it. All processes have variation. Variation is the

used to reduce variation from any source and thus improve costs, quality, and hence customer

The standard methodology that is used to
improve existing processes is called
DMAIC. The acronym DMAIC stands for
Define - Measure - Analyze - Improve -
Control. The key steps that are undertaken
in each phase of DMAIC is shown in the
graphic to the right. The Define phase is all

trol phase is all about ensuring that the solution is sustainable in the long run. Any financial bene-
fits obtained from the project are also quantified. Finally, the improved process is transitioned
over to the process owner. As we can see from this paragraph, any problem can be addressed
using this structured approach.
