Six Sigma is not just an improvement methodology that uses the DMAIC- Define – Measure- Analyze- Improve – Control framework,

2. A Measure to define the capability of any process
3. A Goal for improvement, that targets near perfection through continuous reduction of variation.
According to Michael George, author of the best seller Lean Six Sigma, “Rapid improvement requires both Lean and Six Sigma as an amalgamated approach”-
4. Integration with Lean and Innovation
• Lean Six Sigma is a methodology that maximizes shareholder value by achieving the fastest rate of improvement in customer satisfaction, cost, quality, process speed and invested capital
• The fusion of Lean and Six Sigma is required because-
• Lean cannot bring a process in statistical control and
• Six Sigma, alone cannot dramatically improve the process speed or reduced invested capital.
