The Classical View of Performance
• Six-Sigma is a philosophy:
• Why isn’t “99% acceptable” good enough...??
– 20,000 lost articles of mail every hour.
– 15 minutes each day of unsafe drinking water.
– 5,000 incorrect surgical procedures per week.
– 4 or more accidents per day at major airports.
– 200,000 wrong drug prescriptions each year.
– 7 hours each month without electricity.
3. History of 6 Sigma
• 6 Sigma manufacturing philosophy came from Motorola
They recognised that sufficient process improvement would not
occur using a conventional approach to quality. It was developed
to help them reduce variation within a process by focusing effort
on improving inputs to a process rather than reacting to outputs.
• The process was failing the customer expectations
– Traditionally, processes aimed for process capability of 3 to 4
sigma (Cpk=1.0 to 1.33 or 93% to 99.3% acceptable)
– The customer received 6200 defective product per million at best
– Processes now aim for 6 sigma (Cpk=2)
– The customer would receive 3.4 defective product per million
On target, minimum process variation
4. 6 sigma Process Capability
“What is it (CPK)”
• 3 Sigma ( Process capability of 1 CPK )
– if the process (lorry) slightly varies then the scrap or damage will
occur
• 6 Sigma ( Process capability of 2 CPK )
– if the process (lorry) varies, there will be no scrap or damage

5. Variation exists in everything. Even the
best machine cannot make every unit
exactly the same.
Improved capability, becomes a necessity,
due to the need of :
• improved designs
• lower costs
• better performance
All of this leads to the need of tighter
tolerances
This means that the ability to operate to a
tight tolerance, without producing defects
becomes a major advantage

9. Define
• Define terms of reference (charting a project)
– What you can deliver to the customer and the support you need
from the customer to facilitate a successful improvement (contract
of engagement)
• Brain storming, Mind maps, Affinity diagrams, High level Process
Maps, Systematic diagrams / Fault tree, Business Process Mapping
– Tools to explore a problem, project or current thinking.
– Tools to group those ideas logically.
– Then define a route map to improvement, the risk involved and
how to mitigate that risk.
• Define customer requirements (Voice of the customer)
– QFD Quality Function Deployment, is a method of defining what
the customer needs, what is critical to there business success &
prioritise objectives to meet the customer need.
10. Measure
Improvement methodology
• Voice of the process
– Data Collection - 7 quality tools
– Tally charts
– Bar charts
– Pareto
– Run charts
– Control charts
– Cause & effect
– Check sheets
– Evaluate measurement systems
• Gauge R&R
• Select measures of performance
– Quality Function Deployment
•To measure and
understand baseline
performance for the
current process
11. Measure
• Voice of the process (7 quality tools)
– Tally charts, Bar charts, Pareto, Run charts, Control charts, Cause
& effect, Check sheets.
• Evaluate measurement systems Gauge R&R
– Every process has variation and measurement system, tools &
cmm are no exception.
– Typical your measurement process needs to be ACCURATE,
REPEATABLE & REPRODUCIBLE to less than 10% of the
tolerance you are trying to measure to & proven to be so.
• Select measures of performance
– QFD Quality Function Deployment is a method of defining what
the customer needs and what is critical to there business success
and prioritising performance measures to support the customers
need.
12. Analyze

19. Analyze
• Investigate source of variation (Special cause / Common causes)
– Special cause variation are the one off, occasional and obvious
cause of a process / quality problems.
– Common cause variation are the day in day out causes of process
problems, because the process is not stable enough, they are
hidden (these form 80% of process problems)
– Conventional non-conformance management systems seek to solve
special cause variation (e.g. concessions) - but these only represent
15 - 20% of the total variation.
– 6 Sigma addresses all variation.
20. Improve
Improvement methodology
• Prioritise improvements
– Impact Vs Effort
– Brainstorming
– Affinity diagrams
– Solution selection matrix
• Tactical implementation plans
– Deliver improvements (reduce variation
systematically)

21. Improve
• Prioritise improvements
– Tool commonly in uses are, Impact Vs Effort,
Brainstorming, Affinity diagrams, Solution selection
matrix.
– These tools help define the best method to meet the
customer need (as defined in the QFD)
• Tactical implementation plans
– Deliver improvements to reduce variation
systematically i.e. make a change, note the
improvement and make the next improvement.
– Critical we need to establish that any change is a
change for the good.
22. Control
Improvement methodology
• Control the process
– Recover
• Control plans
• Escalation process
– Prevent
• Poke yoke (mistake/ error proof)
– Monitor
• Control charts
• Checksheets
• Documentation and Standardisation
23. Control
• Control the process
– Recover, Control plans, Escalation process.
– Prevent by Poke yoke (fool proof the process) to fundamentally
remove the rood causes of process variation.
– Monitor, Control charts, Checksheets, Documentation and
Standardisation, to ensure that stable process is maintained and
that the process does not degrade.
• The objective is to remove the root causes of process variation,
management are only left with a few critical input variables in the
process that need controlling and not all inputs as before.
24. Where does 6 Sigma fit with Lean

6 Sigma
improvements
• Lean and 6 Sigma both seek to
deliver business improvement
• They are different in the
methods used and tools
employed
– Lean typically address the
total manufacturing
environment
– 6 sigma typical address the
root cause of process
variation
• There is significant benefit
from using the most appropriate
tools and improvement
methodology to meet the
customer requirements

Key point :- The customer is receiving defective product
Key point :- After the introduction of ^ sigma the customer is now not receiving defective product
Key point :- 3 sigma would mean if you where to drive your car on to your drive, then you would you would just squeeze past the gate posts and error and the wing minors would be off 6 sigma would mean that you car could easily get past the gate posts with out any risk of breaking the wing mirrors off.
Key point :- A stable process, repeatable process is the key i.e. the car it starts every time when you need it to start gets you to work and back in the same manor no variation, day in day out
Key point :- Every process has inputs, man, method, material, machine and uncontrolled inputs these combine to give an out put (what the customer wants) By control the key inputs the out put is more stable less variation and is what the customer want, every time when they want it
