Six Sigma Tutoring FAQ
Six Sigma is a disciplined, data-driven approach and methodology for virtually eliminating defects from any process, from manufacturing to transactional and product to service. This helps improve the customer experience while simultaneously lowering operational costs. In order to meet Six Sigma standards, a given process must have fewer than 3.4 defects per million opportunities. Varsity Tutors can help you find an experienced Six Sigma tutor to help you reach it.
The idea behind Six Sigma is relatively easy to understand, so the secret is learning how to apply it in real world scenarios. Six Sigma Master Black Belts (the highest rank) stress two methodologies to implement Six Sigma. The first is DMAIC, or Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control. This is a checklist that you can use to bring an existing product or process up to Six Sigma standards.
If you're developing something new or the existing infrastructure is so inefficient that it can't be salvaged, the situation calls for the other methodology. DMADV, or Define, Measure, Analyze, Design, Verify, is a checklist used to create new systems meeting Six Sigma criteria.
A private Six Sigma tutor can review case studies with you and your team to show the benefits of Six Sigma in action. For example, Motorola and General Electric are successful brands that have completely integrated Six Sigma into their operations. These examples can then be contrasted with a company's current operations to determine what they are doing well and which areas need improvement. Completing this exercise in a group setting can be helpful for brainstorming purposes, especially if you can access a business's employees.
The "Analyze" portion of both methodologies above requires a certain familiarity with numbers, but many students struggled with math in school. A Six Sigma tutor can review any math that you or your team need to, helping everybody get on the same page when analyzing data. Likewise, a refresher on the scientific method may be able to help you design experiments to verify that the results you expected are actually getting realized. Any questions asked can be answered in real time, ensuring that everybody understands what's happening.
