As described from different authors, Six Sigma (6σ) is a set of techniques and tools for process improvement. It was introduced by engineer Bill Smith while working at Motorola in 1986. Jack Welch placed it at the center of his commercial strategy at General Electric in 1995.
SIX SIGMA seeks to improve the quality of production of a process by identifying and removing the causes of defects and minimizing variability in production and business processes. It uses a set of quality management methods, mainly empirical, statistical methods. Each Six Sigma project within an organization follows a defined sequence of steps and has specific value objectives, such as: reducing process cycle time, reducing pollution, reducing costs, increasing customer satisfaction, and increase profits.
