Six Sigma

Our Six Sigma programs enable institutions and industries to achieve data-driven quality improvement using DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control) and DMADV (Define, Measure, Analyze, Design, Verify) methodologies. We train and support in deploying Green Belt and Black Belt projects that drive measurable business results.

What is Six Sigma?

Six Sigma is a data-driven method for improving quality by reducing variation and defects in a process. It uses the DMAIC cycle – Define, Measure, Analyse, Improve and Control – and statistical tools to find the real causes of problems and fix them permanently.

How PKP Technology implements Six Sigma

  1. Define: we select a problem with clear business impact and set measurable goals.
  2. Measure: current performance is measured and the data collection system is checked.
  3. Analyse: tools such as Pareto charts, fishbone diagrams and hypothesis testing identify root causes.
  4. Improve: solutions are tested, piloted and rolled out.
  5. Control: control charts, standard procedures and audits keep the gains.
  6. Training: Yellow Belt and Green Belt level awareness and project training for your team.

Benefits of Six Sigma

  • Decisions based on data rather than guesswork
  • Lower cost of poor quality
  • More consistent and predictable processes
  • Problem-solving skills that stay with your team

Frequently asked questions

What does “Six Sigma” mean?

In statistics, six sigma quality means a process produces about 3.4 defects per million opportunities. In practice, it is a structured way to reduce defects.

What is the difference between Lean and Six Sigma?

Lean focuses on removing waste and speeding up flow, and Six Sigma focuses on reducing variation and defects. Many organisations combine them as Lean Six Sigma.

Do we need statistics software?

Simple projects can use spreadsheets. Larger projects may use statistical software, and we guide your team on the right tools.
