Synopsis

Six Sigma - the management strategy Jack Welch attributes GE's phenomenal success to - is being implemented by many leading UK organizations looking for dramatic profil increases and improved customer satisfaction. But Six Sigma in production is less than half the story - Six Sigma in design is where the money is.  If you change a product after it is launched it will cost you 1,000 times more than if you made those changes during the design stage. Subir Chowdhury, the leading quality expert who introduced Six Sigma to the UK in his last book, the internationally best-selling The Power of Six Sigma, has done it again.  Design for Six Sigma attacks a company's problems at the product development stage and presents a revolutionary five-step process that takes a compnay all the way to Six Sigma. The Design for Six Sigma process results in:

  • Cost savings in development, manufacturing, and after-sales service and support
  • Improved quality at introduction
  • Getting the best products to market faster and more efficiently

Synopsis

Six Sigma, From the Ground Up - to achieve this level of near perfection, a corporation must attack problems at the design stage. If a company changes a design after a product launch, and not during the concept stage, implementing the changes will cost 1,000 times more. Six Sigma, the near perfect rate of only 3.4 defects per million opportunities and the management strategy to which Jack Welch attributes GE's phenomenal success, is on the list of all successful organizations. Even with excellent Six Sigma implementation, most companies are able to achieve only Five Sigma, which is not enough in today's ultracompetitive marketplace. For the first time, leading quality expert and author, Subir Chowdhury presents Design For Six Sigma (DFSS), a revolutionary five step process that takes a company all the way to Six Sigma.
