Training and Implementation of Six Sigma Tool and Methodology

Working with our foreign associates, SSAC renders process improvement support using Six Sigma tools and methodologies. Six Sigma is a tool and methodology that focuses on the delivery of near perfect products and services. it scientifically gives indication of how far a process deviates from perfection in order to establish clear parameters for the correction of noted defects. The central idea being that if you systematically measure how many "defects" you have in a process, you can systematically figure out how to eliminate them and get as close to "Zero defect" as possible.

Specifically, Six Sigma:-

  • Reduces or eliminates the Cost of Poor Quality (COPQ) which is total labour, materials and overheads attributable to imperfection in the processes that deliver products or services that do not meet specification or expectation.
  • Focuses on Critical to Quality (CTQ), which is the elements of a process that significantly affect the output of that process. Focusing on CTQ can dramatically reduce costs and enhance quality; and
  • Focuses on Vital Few Factors (VFF) in the processes that lead to variations and defects that keep the company from meeting quality expectations.
Six Sigma therefore empowers an organization to gain breakthrough knowledge on how to improve results better, faster and at a lower cost. Six Sigma is an approach which will improve business processes, thereby reducing costs, increasing customer and employee satisfaction.

Six Sigma provides many other benefits:
  • Effective management of process improvement projects
  • Consistency of performance
  • Reduces fire fighting
  • Finds root-cause solutions to problems
  • Gives an improved customer focus
  • Enhances the pursuit of value for money
  • Leads to a better informed management and better informed meetings

SSAC offers Six Sigma symposiums and seminars focused on

  • Understanding Six Sigma
  • Overview of what Six Sigma Methodology is; and
  • Gains of Six Sigma.

We also support overseas training for the following Six Sigma players

  • Champions
  • Master Black Belt
  • Black Belts
  • Green Belts
  • Yellow Belts
SSAC offers support in Six Sigma implementation from Project Selection, through Projective Objective to the DMAIC - define, measure, analyze, improve and control - steps of problem solving mechanism.
