DOCUMENT DESCRIPTION

This module looks at process variation and the methodology widely used to reduce or eliminate it - DMAIC. Variation is first defined, followed by process basics (inputs, process, outputs). These basics are used to introduce process analysis (capability) in the context of variation and the dramatic impact possible through the DMAIC methodology. The two goals of DMAIC are also covered.

Other topics covered in the module include: the problem with managing averages (with an example), common misconceptions of acceptable quality, a modern definition of quality, the definition of six sigma as defined by statisticians, the 1.5 sigma shift used throughout the DMAIC methodology, the implications on quality of complex processes, the 15 steps of the DMAIC Roadmap, the purpose and outputs of each of the 5 phases of DMAIC. When completed, you will have an understanding of process variation, why it is bad, how it can be measured and some preliminary concepts used to tackle it. This material is suitable for independent study, executive briefing or formal classroom training including quiz questions.

CUSTOMER TESTIMONIALS

"As a small business owner, the resource material available from FlevyPro has proven to be invaluable. The ability to search for material on demand based our project events and client requirements was great for me and proved very beneficial to my clients. Importantly, being able to easily edit and tailor the material for specific purposes helped us to make presentations, knowledge sharing, and toolkit development, which formed part of the overall program collateral. While FlevyPro contains resource material that any consultancy, project or delivery firm must have, it is an essential part of a small firm or independent consultant's toolbox."

– Michael Duff, Managing Director at Change Strategy (UK)

"Flevy is now a part of my business routine. I visit Flevy at least 3 times each month.

Flevy has become my preferred learning source, because what it provides is practical, current, and useful in this era where the business world is being rewritten.

In today's environment where there are so many challenges and there is the need to make the right decisions in a short time, with so much scattered information, we are fortunate to have Flevy. Flevy investigates, selects, and puts at our disposal the best of the best to help us be successful in our work."

– Omar Hernán Montes Parra, CEO at Quantum SFE

"I like your product. I'm frequently designing PowerPoint presentations for my company and your product has given me so many great ideas on the use of charts, layouts, tools, and frameworks. I really think the templates are a valuable asset to the job."

– Roberto Fuentes Martinez, Manager at Technology Transformation Advisory

"I have used Flevy services for a number of years and have never, ever been disappointed. As a matter of fact, David and his team continue, time after time, to impress me with their willingness to assist and in the real sense of the word. I have concluded in fact that it is not at all just a repository of documents/resources but, in the way that David and his team manage the firm, it is like dealing with consultants always ready to assist, advise and direct you to what you really need, and they always get it right.

I am an international hospitality accomplished senior executive who has worked and lived during the past 35 years in 23 countries in 5 continents and I can humbly say that I know what customer service is, trust me.

Aside from the great and professional service that Flevy's team provide, their wide variety of material is of utmost great quality, professionally put together and most current.

Well done Flevy, keep up the great work and I look forward to continue working with you in the future and to recommend you to a variety of colleagues around the world."
