6西格玛管理与不良质量成本

当谈到6西格玛管理时,常常会听到人们这样说:“要达到那么高的质量水平,企业是否要花费巨资?”“我们企业的质量水平与6西格玛差得太远了。要实现6西格玛,公司就得花费大量资金来更新设备或改进技术,这样做是否划算?”其实,这是对6西格玛管理的一种误解。成功的6西格玛管理为企业带来的是实实在在的经济效益,这一点已为     

6西格玛管理系列讲座(九)--关于6西格玛管理中"软"的一面

在前面的介绍中我们谈到了,6西格玛管理是由一系列科学方法构成的。由于它强调依据数据决策。因此,在6西格玛管理中,统计技术的应用是不可缺少的,它们构成了6西格玛方法的重要方面。没有这些技术和工具,数据最终还是数据,不能变成信息,也不能提升为知识,当然也就起不到指导改进行动的作用。可以说,没有这些技术方法的支持,6西格玛的功效将大

6西格玛管理战略与中国企业

背景 6西格玛(6σ或Six Sigma)最早作为一种突破性的质量管理战略在20世纪80年代末在摩托罗拉公司(Motorola)成型并付诸实践,三年后该公司的6西格玛质量战略取得了空前的成功:产品的不合格率从百万分之6210件(大约4西格玛)减少到百万分之32(5.5西格玛),在此过程中节约成本超过20亿美金.

Lessons from Sweden’s first large-scale implementation of Six Sigma in healthcare

The Skaraborg Hospital Group (SkaS) has implemented a variety of quality management initiatives in the last 20 years in accordance with its strategy of excelling at quality development to fulfill the needs and expectations of its patients. One such initiative is Six Sigma, which has contributed to more than 40 completed improvement projects. Using an action research approach, this article describes the lessons that were learned from the first 22 Six Sigma projects, completed between 2006 and 2008 and having a success rate of 75%. We further describe how these insights have contributed to other ongoing quality improvement activities at SkaS. In particular, the paper presents some key points not earlier described in other Six Sigma healthcare applications.

Six Sigma and information systems project management: A revised theoretical model

Previous information systems (IS) research has significantly improved the success rate of IS projects, but the result is still far from satisfying. The effort to advance IS project management theories continues. One notable effort is Ravichandran and Rai (2000). Based on quality management principles, they developed a model (the R&R model) describing a qualityoriented organizational system that leads to software development quality performance. This study analyzed Six Sigma to propose major revisions to the R&R model. Six Sigma is a recent approach to quality management with proven effectiveness. The analysis of Six Sigma suggested that several constructs in the R&R model need to be respecified, leading to the definition of a new quality‐oriented organizational system. More importantly, the revised model posits that the new organizational system leads to IS project success that can be measured by organizational performance improvement. This study contributes to the literature and provides practical guidance to IS project managers.     

Applied Product Capability Analysis Chart in Measure Step of Six Sigma

This paper will apply product capability analysis chart PCAC in Measure step of Six Sigma. Because the test model is sampling, sampling error must be consider. Thus minimum value will be used to evaluate process capability. Besides the paper used minimum value to evaluate process capability, we also applied the concept of Six Sigma in PCAC and construct PCAC of Six Sigma standard. Finally, PCAC of Six Sigma standard will apply in Six Sigma project of Offset Ratchet Wrenches which manufactured by Y company.     

Six Sigma: The role of goals in improvement teams

The tenets of goal theory have been well established as a motivation mechanism in the management literature. However, some quality-management advocates, such as W. Edwards Deming, often criticize the use of goals. This research investigates the tension between goals and quality management in the Six Sigma context. We find empirical support that goals can be effective in Six Sigma improvement teams when teams adhere to the Six Sigma tools and method. However, challenging goals are counterproductive when Six Sigma teams do not use the tools and methods rigorously. This research reconciles the differences between quality management and goal theory by showing that the Six Sigma tools and method interact with goals.

The effects of Six Sigma on corporate performance: An empirical investigation

The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of adopting Six Sigma on corporate performance. Although there is a fairly large and growing body of anecdotal evidence associated with the benefits of implementing Six Sigma, there is very little systematic and rigorous research investigating these benefits. This research extends previous research in several important ways including utilizing a sample of 84 Six Sigma firms that represent a wide variety of industries and firm characteristics, utilizing rigorously constructed control groups to ensure the validity of our comparisons and conclusions, and investigating the impact of adopting Six Sigma on corporate performance over a ten year period. To carry out this investigation, the event study methodology is employed. The ten year period consists of three years prior to Six Sigma implementation, the event year corresponding to the year Six Sigma is adopted, and six years post Six Sigma implementation. To assess the impact of adopting Six Sigma on corporate performance we utilize commonly used measures including Operating Income/Total Assets (OI/A), Operating Income/Sales (OI/S), Operating Income/Number of Employees (OI/E), Sales/Assets (S/A), and Sales/Number of Employees (S/E). The sample Six Sigma firms are compared to different benchmarks including the overall industry performance and to the performance of carefully selected portfolios of control firms. The results of the study indicate that adopting Six Sigma positively impacts organizational performance primarily through the efficiency with which employees are deployed. More specifically, enhanced employee productivity results were observed in both static analyses that assessed the performance of the sample Six Sigma firms relative to their control groups at discrete points in time and dynamic analyses of the Six Sigma firms’ rate of improvement relative to the rate of improvement of their control groups. Benefits in terms of improved asset efficiency were not observed. Finally, there was no evidence that Six Sigma negatively impacts corporate performance.
