Lean Six Sigma is today’s most dynamic management approach for dramatically improving product and process quality. It is a business process management methodology that seeks to improve the quality of process outputs by identifying and removing the causes of defects and minimizing variability in business processes.

As competition becomes more intense resulting in lower profit margins, business leaders agree that business process management is one sure way to reduce cost and improve the bottom-line and this is what Six Sigma aims to achieve.

Some of the acclaimed benefits of implementing Six Sigma include:
• Money – Six Sigma focuses on eliminating inefficient processes that waste resources
• Customer satisfaction – Six Sigma focuses on the Critical-to-quality (CTQ) expectations of your customers
• Competitive advantage – Six Sigma allows you become more competitive as you have reduced your cost of doing business, meet the expectations of your customers and have earned a reputation for quality

The Six Sigma methodology uses statistical tools to identify the vital few factors, the factors that matter the most for improving the quality of processes and generating bottom-line results and consists of five phases – DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control)
