• Provides plans, checklists, metrics, and pitfalls.

Recenzje

"The book is process oriented rather than tool oriented. This makes it refreshing and useful. This is a book every reliability engineer should own." ( Reliability Review; 12/08)

"An excellent reference book that should be on every individual involved in Six Sigma or even just quality assurance/quality improvement." (TQM Magazine)

"...a useful guide for both academia and organizations...useful source of reference for researchers...an excellent reference book..." (The TQM Magazine, Vol 15(6) 2003)

"No other book covers at an adequate technical level as many topics important toSix Sigma. An indispensable reference for the Six Sigma practitioner."

Ramon V. Leon

Associate Professor, Statistics Department of the University of Tennessee

Associate editor, Six Sigma Forum magazine

"Breyfogle′s book should be valuable to every Six Sigma professional."

Bill Scherkenback

Director, Samsung Quality Team

"The seamless integration of statistical methodologies . . . helps organizations execute their strategic plans and track both short– and longer–term strategic progress within their various departments and overall organizations."

Donald C. Fisher, PhD

Executive Director, MSQPC The Quality Center

"Implementing Six Sigma provides the most up–to–date material on the topic, complete with a project infrastructure roadmap and hundreds of real–life examples and exercises."

Frank Shines

Project Manager, Pilgrim Software

This new and significantly revised edition of Implementing Six Sigma goes well beyondtraditional Six Sigma methodologies, introducing an enhanced roadmap S4/IEE (Smarter Six Sigma Solutionssm/Integrated Enterprise Excellence). This cutting–edge approach offers a solution to the common problem of sustaining Six Sigma activities and downplays the traditional policy stating that Six Sigma projects must have a defined defect. A variety of plans, checklists, metrics, and warnings of potential pitfalls provide thorough preparation for anyone implementing Six Sigma strategies.

With new coverage of Six Sigma infrastructure building, benchmarking, and real–world "lessons learned," this Second Edition is the best available tool for implementing thesepowerful, profit–building strategies.
