Training content:
The Six Sigma Methodologies are explained through an example project and with extensive workshops deepened. Following phases are viewed:
DEFINE-Phase: The purpose of the Define Phase is to understand 100% the project objective, taking into account the initial situation in order to determine the extent and set goals. With the project assignment, the framework conditions of the project are bindingly defined, taking into account as many aspects as possible. Important tools are:
- Project charter
- Project key figures
- Six Sigma project management and organization
- Project Risk Evaluation
- Process Mapping (SIPOC, Supplier, Input, Process, Output, Customer)
- Customer requirements (VoC, Voice of Customer)
- Prioritization tools (C&E Matrix, Pareto)
MEASURE-Phase: The second stage in a Six Sigma project involves data collection. Important tools are:
- Foundations for a reliable and representative data collection
- Introduction to MINITAB
- Fundamentals of statistics, key figures
- Full overview of the Measurement System Analysis (MSA)
- Process capability analysis for continuous and discrete data
- Graphical data analysis
ANALYZE-Phase: The Analyze phase includes a systematic entry to the process and at the same time the development of a causal chain as well as the development of targeted hypotheses. With the help of measurements and their data, the causes and effects are analyzed using graphical and statistical tools. At the end of the Analyze phase, you know which factors are most significant. Important tools are:
- Methods of process depiction
- Risk Assessment (FMEA)
- Ishikawa diagram
- XY-Matrix
- Development of hypotheses and planning a causal data acquisition
- Graphical tools
- Pattern recognition in data
- Hypothesis tests
- Regression Analysis foundations
- Analysis of Variance (ANOVA)
- Design of Experiments (DoE)
- Transfer functions
IMPROVE-Phase: In the Improve Phase, the process is redesigned so that its output delivers the results requested by the customer. Important tools are:
- Recognizing the need for a process redesign
- Tools for selecting solutions
- Implementation of best solution
- Cost-Benefit Analysis
- Piloting
- Comparison (before / after)
CONTROL-Phase: The Control Phase ensures that the improvements are sustainable. Important tools are:
- Control Plan Development
- SPC Control Chart (structure, guide, interpret)
- Process controlling
- Knowledge Management
- Project completion
- Project documentation
