In its simplest form, Six Sigma is a systematic approach to reduce variation in products and processes. Six Sigma consulting is an extremely disciplined approach that questions everything and uses a combination of statistics and data analysis as well as creative right-brain thinking to reduce defects and increase quality in any process.

 

Rigorously implementing Six Sigma will lead to tremendously positive results in any business environment. In fact, Six Sigma implementations have been successful in industries as diverse as health care, forestry, finance, automotive, production, insurance, and the oil and gas industry.

 

The Six Sigma DMAIC methodology (Define – Measure – Analyse – Implement – Control) is extremely methodical and follows a logical process to assist organisations in identifying the root cause for any defects, and engage frontline staff in improvement thinking.

 

Exceed's implementation of the Six Sigma consulting model is based on a DMAIC-T approach. The DMAIC-T methodology follows the approach above, implementing PACE, BTP and other solutions as part of the implementation phase, but adds a Transfer phase to ensure the appropriate measurement tools and skills are embedded in the client organisation for ongoing quality control.
