Practical Six Sigma Methodology for Business

Six Sigma was originally developed by Motorola in the 1980’s and has since been implemented and benchmarked by numerous world class organizations such as GE, Caterpillar, Honeywell, ABB, Sony, Texas Instruments, Ford, Johnson Control Systems, etc. with the purpose of reducing variability in processes, reducing quality costs, improving process capability and enhancing process throughput yield.

Can SMEs implement Six Sigma?

Six Sigma offers many small and medium sized companies the same benefits as larger companies: an improved bottom line. Six Sigma represents a major opportunity for cost savings and increased profits.

In smaller enterprises, typically the businesses processes used have evolved in an ad hoc manner as the business grew. Error rates often can hover in the 20- to 30-percent range. Therefore, opportunities for performance improvement are proportionately high.

Because many SMEs operate their business processes at the 2 to 3 sigma level, an improvement of even 1 sigma represents a huge step in improving customer satisfaction and reducing costs. Through a better understanding of their core processes, smaller businesses can make significant improvements rapidly. In addition, smaller businesses often rely on management methods that are more spontaneous than controlled. These companies could benefit from Six Sigma’s structured, data-driven methodology for eliminating defects, waste or quality problems of which the cause is unknown.
