Overview of Six Sigma 6 SIGMA AS A PHILOSOPHY CHANGE THE WORLD TRANSFORM THE ORGANIZATION 6 SIGMA AS A PROCESS 6 SIGMA AS A STATISTICAL TOOL GROWTH COSTS OUT PAIN, URGENCY, SURVIVAL Quality. Gurus. com
Overview of Six Sigma It is a Process To achieve this level of performance you need to: Define, Measure, Analyse, Improve and Control It is a Philosophy Anything less than ideal is an opportunity for improvement Defects costs money Understanding processes and improving them is the It is Statistics most efficient way to 6 Sigma processes will achieve lasting results produce less than 3. 4 defects per million opportunities Quality. Gurus. com
Philosophy Know What’s Important to the Customer (CTQ) Reduce Defects (DPMO) Center Around Target (Mean) Reduce Variation (Standard Deviation) Quality. Gurus. com

Key Concepts Quality. Gurus. com
COPQ (Cost of Poor Quality) - Inspection - Warranty - Scrap - Rework - Rejects - More Setups - Expediting Costs - Lost Sales - Late Delivery - Lost Customer Loyalty - Excess Inventory - Long Cycle Times - Costly Engineering Changes Traditional Quality Costs: - Tangible - Easy to Measure Lost Opportunities Hidden Costs: - Intangible - Difficult to Measure The Hidden Factory Average COPQ approximately 15% of Sales Quality. Gurus. com
Cost of Quality % Sales COPQ v/s Sigma Level Quality. Gurus. com
CTQ (Critical-To. Quality) CTQ characteristics for the process, service or process Measure of “What is important to Customer” 6 Sigma projects are designed to improve CTQ Examples: Waiting time in clinic Spelling mistakes in letter % of valves leaking in operation Quality. Gurus. com
Defective and Defect A nonconforming unit is a defective unit Defect is nonconformance on one of many possible quality characteristics of a unit that causes customer dissatisfaction. A defect does not necessarily make the unit defective Examples: Scratch on water bottle (However if customer wants a scratch free bottle, then this will be defective bottle) Quality. Gurus. com
Defect Opportunity Circumstances in which CTQ can fail to meet. Number of defect opportunities relate to complexity of unit. Complex units – Greater opportunities of defect than simple units Examples: A units has 5 parts, and in each part there are 3 opportunities of defects – Total defect opportunities are 5 x 3 = 15 Quality. Gurus. com
DPO (Defect Per Opportunity) Number of defects divided by number of defect opportunities Examples: In previous case (15 defect opportunities), if 10 units have 2 defects. Defects per unit = 2 / 10 = 0. 2 DPO = 2 / (15 x 10) = 0. 0133333 Quality. Gurus. com
DPMO (Defect Per Million Opportunities) DPO multiplies by one million Examples: In previous case (15 defect opportunities), if 10 units have 2 defects. Defects per unit = 2 / 10 = 0. 2 DPO = 2 / (15 x 10) = 0. 0133333 DPMO = 0. 013333333 x 1, 000 = 13, 333 Six Sigma performance is 3. 4 DPMO 13, 333 DPMO is 3. 7 Sigma Quality. Gurus. com
Yield Proportion of units within specification divided by the total number of units. Examples: If 10 units have 2 defectives Yield = (10 – 2) x 100 /10 = 80 % Rolled Through Yield (RTY) Y 1 x Y 2 x Y 3 x ……. x Yn E. g 0. 90 x 0. 99 x 0. 76 x 0. 80 = 0. 54 Quality. Gurus. com
Forms of Waste Quality. Gurus. com
What are the forms of waste? 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Waste of Correction Waste of Overproduction Waste of processing Waste of conveyance (or transport) Waste of inventory Waste of motion Waste of waiting Quality. Gurus. com
1. Waste of correction Repairing a defect wastes time and resources (Hidden factory) Hidden Factory Rework Failure Investigation Operation 1 Test Failure Investigation Operation 2 Test Product Quality. Gurus. com
2. Waste of Overproduction Producing more than necessary or producing at faster rate than required Excess labor, space, money, handling Quality. Gurus. com
3. Waste of processing Processing that does not provide value to the product Excess level of approvals Tying memos that could be handwritten Cosmetic painting on internals of equipment Paint thickness more than specific values Quality. Gurus. com
4. Waste of conveyance Unnecessary movement of material from one place to other to be minimized because It adds to process time Goods might get damaged Convey material and information ONLY when and where it is needed. Quality. Gurus. com
5. Waste of inventory Any excess inventory is drain on an organization. Impact on cash flow Increased overheads Covers Quality and process issues Examples Spares, brochures, stationary, … Quality. Gurus. com
6. Waste of Motion Any movement of people, equipment, information that does not contribute value to product or service Quality. Gurus. com
7. Waste of Waiting Idle time between operations Period of inactivity in a downstream process because an upstream activity does not deliver on time. Downstream resources are then often used in activities that do not add value, or worst result in overproduction. Quality. Gurus. com
Some more sources of Waste of untapped human potential. Waste of inappropriate systems Wasted energy and water Wasted materials Waste of customer time Waste of defecting customers Quality. Gurus. com

Variability The world tends to be bell-shaped Even very rare outcomes are possible Fewer in the “tails” (lower) Most outcomes occur in the middle Fewer Even very rare in the outcomes are “tails” possible (upper) Quality. Gurus. com
Variability Here is why: Even outcomes that are equally likely (like dice), when you add them up, become bell shaped Quality. Gurus. com
“Normal” bell shaped curve Normal distributions are divide up into 3 standard deviations on each side of the mean Once your that, you know a lot about what is going on And that is what a standard deviation is good for Quality. Gurus. com
Causes of Variability Common Causes: Random variation within predictable range (usual) No pattern Inherent in process Adjusting the process increases its variation Special Causes Non-random variation (unusual) May exhibit a pattern Assignable, explainable, controllable Adjusting the process decreases its variation Quality. Gurus. com
Limits Process and Control limits: Statistical Process limits are used for individual items Control limits are used with averages Limits = μ ± 3σ Define usual (common causes) & unusual (special causes) Specification limits: Engineered Limits = target ± tolerance Define acceptable & unacceptable Quality. Gurus. com
Usual v/s Unusual, Acceptable v/s Defective Another View Off-Target LSL Large Variation LSL USL On-Target Center Process Reduce Spread LSL USL LSL = Lower spec limit USL = Upper spec limit The statistical view of a problem Quality. Gurus. com
More about limits Poor quality: defects are common (Cpk<1) Good quality: defects are rare (Cpk>1) μ target Cpk measures “Process Capability” If process limits and control limits are at the same location, Cpk = 1. Cpk ≥ 2 is exceptional. Quality. Gurus. com
Process capability Good quality: defects are rare (Cpk>1) Poor quality: defects are common (Cpk<1) Cpk = min = USL – x = 24 – 20 =. 667 3σ 3(2) = x - LSL = 20 – 15 =. 833 3σ 3(2) = = 3σ = (UPL – x, or x – LPL) 14 15 20 24 26 Quality. Gurus. com

Thought of the day We don't know what we don't know We can't act on what we don't know We won't know until we search We won't search for what we don't question We don't question what we don't measure Hence, We just don't know Quality. Gurus. com
Project Selection The first step to implement Six Sigma Quality. Gurus. com
Sources of Projects External Sources: Voice of Customer What are we falling short of meeting customer needs? What are the new needs of customers? Voice of Market What are market trends, and are we ready to adapt? Voice of Competitors What are we behind our competitors? Quality. Gurus. com
Sources of Projects Internal Sources: Voice of Process Where are the defects, repairs, reworks? What are the major delays? What are the major wastes? Voice of Employee What concerns or ideas have employees or managers raised? What are we behind our competitors? Quality. Gurus. com
Project Selection As a team List down at least 20 improvement projects related to your work areas ……. A Problem Statement should be SMART: n n n Specific - It does not solve world hunger Measurable - It has a way to measure success Achievable - It is possible to be successful Relevant - It has an impact that can be quantified Timely - It is near term not off in the future Quality.

What Qualifies as a Six Sigma Project Three basic qualifications: -There is a gap between current and desired / needed performance. The cause of problem is not clearly understood. The solution is not pre-determined, nor is the optimal solution apparent. How many projects out of 20 now qualify as Six sigma projects? Quality. Gurus. com
