What is Six Sigma?
Six Sigma is a business improvement concept that focuses on meeting precise customer requirements and eliminating defects from existing processes. Many global organisations have significantly improved bottom line performance by implementing
Six Sigma training programs. The Six Sigma methodology is a proven concept and has saved clients millions of dollars. It is a philosophy of doing business with a focus on eliminating defects through fundamental process knowledge.
Six Sigma is a scientific method applied to the design and operation of management systems that removes process defects to the point where output is nearly perfect, with only 3.4 defects occurring per million opportunities. SAI Global has the experience and delivery capability to provide Six Sigma training and advisory services globally.
