Publisher's Synopsis
Now, Six Sigma has become a buzzword in both the manufacturing and service industries of the world. The various methodologies used in Six Sigma are based on pure and precise data that help in reducing defects by restricting the number of possible defects to less than 3.4 defects per million. The methodologies are equally effective in both the manufacturing and service industries. In manufacturing industries, Six Sigma is mostly used for reducing the number of defects whereas in service industries, it is used mainly for increasing customer satisfaction. All Six Sigma proponents agree to the fact that the key to Six Sigma improvement success is the building up of an effective infrastructure. An effective infrastructure lays the foundation for the success of the organization in its implementation of Six Sigma. It is a known fact today that the success of Six Sigma lays on the projects selected and their link to the strategy of their organization. There have been enough publications on the selection of projects and the filters to be used for the prioritization of projects, however there are not enough details available on the building the key infrastructure for the deployment of Six Sigma. In the past two decades, Six Sigma methodology has been widely adopted by industries and non-profit organizations throughout the world. Six Sigma Deployment demonstrates the development of Six Sigma program, and discuss the features and steps of the improvements. As Six Sigma is gradually becoming a popular process enhancement methodology that started in the manufacturing sector and has now spread to other areas as well. It helps in the identification and prevention of defects in manufacturing and service-related processes. Nowadays, it is enjoying widespread recognition in many developed countries of the world. It helps in quality improvement by minimizing the cost of production, reducing the rate of defects, increasing yield, attracting customer, and so increases the profitability of business. Interestingly, it has yet not gained the status of a common technique in the developing countries. As we see that entrepreneurship and creativity are not common in the developing countries, so there are some hurdles in the promotion of this technique in these countries. Also, the trend of this technique in private sector differs from the public sector. As private sectors are more independent in their decision making and free in managing their financial resources.
