SIX SIGMA QUALITY AND TRAINING
Overview: PRIMA Performance Ltd. specializes in implementing six sigma quality
initiatives to dramatically improve corporate profits. Our methodology is based on
the original six sigma initiatives derived by Bill Smith at Motorola from luminaries like
Shewhart, Deming, and Shainin.
Course Outcomes: Attendees will:
- We use the ‘KISS’, Keeping It Statistically Simple technique so that direct labor can
use these techniques
- Understand how to find the root cause of a problem
- Understand how to eliminate the root cause and provide six sigma products and
processess
- Understand how to design robust products and processes
- Obtain confidence in the application of six sigma quality improvement techniques
Course Outline:
- Brief Overview: Not every problem needs to be solved. TRIZ gives us INVENTIVE
techniques to walk around many problems and thus may eliminate
the need for the following tools.
- Process Mapping/Problem Elimination Roadmap: A generic, step-by-step
template for separating
the critical few from the trivial many
- Measurement system adequacy: Product versus measurement system discrimination
- Pareto Principle: 80% of problems due to 20% of the causes
- R. Kipling’s 5 W’s: What, who, when, where, why
- Component Search: For finding the problem components in mechanical systems
- Multi-vari Chart: To determine spatial versus temporal versus whole/part problem dependency
- Paired Comparison: To flush out the root cause by comparing the good versus bad parts
- B vs C: A quick check to establish confidence that our new, ‘Better’ process, is
in fact an improvement over our ‘Current’ process
- Variables search: The Rolls Royce of DOE’s
- Factorial Analysis: Separation and quantification of varibles/interaction
- Scatter Plots: For realistic tolerances
- SPC and Pre-control Charts: To lock up critical variables in a maximum security prison
Course Formats:
- On-site, customer training or
- Web-cast TRIZ training
- - 2.1: Intensive, one day (8 hour) six sigma quality training
- - 2.2: Extended, eight, one hour sessions
Handouts:
- Course: notes, problems and solutions
- Problem solving templates
