Six Sigma

Developed by Motorola, Six Sigma is a business management strategy that seeks to improve the quality process output by identifying and removing the causes of errors. It focuses on improvement of organisational performance.

It uses a set of quality management methods including statistics methods to create special infrastructure of people within the organisation. 

Six sigma methods

There are two methods used:

DMAIC

The DMAIC is used to develop/improve existing practices.

It methodology has five phases:

• Defining the problem,

1. Metric
