journals on Six Sigma model. This literature review discusses about the different parameters which are used in implementing a successful Six Sigma methodology. Kamran Moosaa* and Ali Sajidb (2010) made a study on critical analysis of Six Sigma implementation. Six Sigma is known as a method, metric or a programme. It follows a DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improvement, and Control) process. The other articles state that how teamwork and process management are beneficial for Six Sigma implementation

Six Sigma and Project Management Project Management in Business and Technology, Section 02 Introduction “Sigma” is a symbol for a unit of measure which measures how much a process deviates from perfection. With the increase in demand for quality products/services, several organizations look for ways to improve their performance to meet customer’s expectations. Six Sigma is considered to be an approach which blends the components of quality management and business process re-engineering. Six
Lean Six Sigma is a widely known approach used for improving the processing and quality of the products and services in an organization. Some of its major functions include improving quality, removing waste, reducing variation and organization. There have been several studies that focus on the combination of Lean Enterprise and Six Sigma. These applications mainly focused on the private industry more than the government industry. Hence, the research aims to explore the strategy of Lean Six Sigma
Six Sigma versus Total Quality Management MANA 6333 Loc Nguyen Professor Thompson Abstract This paper explores eight published books about Six Sigma and Total Quality Management.

between theory/application/focus factors when comparing six sigma, lean and theory of constraints. Please elaborate your answer without writing article sentences, use you own words and demonstrate a comprehensive analysis. Making a comparison with a simple standpoint, the six sigma’s methodology is used to incremental improvement of existing processes, as it is the six sigma main tool, DMAIC. This tool is a strategy based on statistical quality, which gives much importance to data collection and accuracy
Six Sigma [pic] The often-used six sigma symbol. Six Sigma seeks to improve the quality of process outputs by identifying and removing the causes of defects (errors) and minimizing variability in manufacturing and business processes. It uses a set of quality management methods, including statistical methods, and creates a special infrastructure of people within the organization ("Black Belts", "Green Belts", etc.) who are experts in these methods. Each Six Sigma project carried out within an organization
