Why Six Sigma?
Reducing defects, waste and variation within your processes is indispensable to make continuous improvement happen. Using statistical data enables you to deduce the right decisions based on facts in a short time, which is essential in a fast moving environment.
Stay on track
Six Sigma is a quantitative approach to improve processes. Deviation from the standard indicates the need for closer examination. A KPI-based analysis of performance allows your team to reveal weak spots and enables you to systematically move along cause-effect-chains to get to the root of any issue.
