Six Sigma Evolution

• Started as a simple quality metric at Motorola
  (Bill Smith)
• Migrated to Allied Signal
• (acquired Honeywell and took its name)
• Picked up by General Electric
• Commitment by CEO Jack Welch
• Grown to be an integrated strategy for attaining
  extremely high levels of quality

What is Six-Sigma?

5
Percent Not Meeting Specifications

• 1S 32
• 2S 4.5
• 3S 0.3
• 6S 0.00034

Six-Sigma Levels

Statistics - DPU

• Defect
• Six Sigma any mistake or error passed on to the
  customer ???
• General view any variation from specifications
• DPU (defects per unit)
• Number of defects per unit of work
• Ex 3 lost bags 8,000 customers
• .00375

8
Statistics dpmo (defects per million
opportunities)

• Process may have more than one opportunity for
  error (e.g., airline baggage)
• dpmo (DPU 1,000,000)
• opportunities for error
• Ex (3 lost bags 1,000,000) (8,000 customers
  1.6 average bags)
• 234.375

9
Statistics dpmo (contd)

• May extend the concept to include higher level
  processes
• E.g., may consider all opportunities for errors
  for a flight (from ticketing to baggage claim)

10
Statistics - Off-Centering

• Represents a shift in the process mean
• Impossible to always keep the process mean the
  same (this WOULD be perfection)
• Does NOT represent a change in specifications
• Control of shift within 1.5 s of the target
  mean keeps defects to a maximum of 3.4 per
  million

k-Sigma Quality Levels

• Number of defects per million
• For a specified off-centering and
• a desired quality level
