Description
Finally, the presentation will touch upon the DFSS or Design for Six Sigma concepts and how they assist management in making decisions of whether the new product development is ready for prime time or is ready to be deployed in the field.
The principle of Six Sigma Blackbelt has begun to touch many different aspects of new product development and optimization of existing product. Whereas the paradigm of Six Sigma Blackbelt utilizes statistics, there are simplistic approaches that warrant further consideration by management. The paradigm needs to be implemented as a top-down effort and upper management should be the initial staunch supporter of the process excellence tools. This presentation will provide a primer of the Six Sigma Blackbelt concepts in a very easy to understand way. Specifically, attempt will be made to highlight the new product development process of DMADVV or Define, Measure, Analyze, Develop, Verify, & Validate.
The structured approach to problem-solving will also reference optimization of existing products by following the DMAIIC process or Define, Measure, Analyze, Innovative Improvement, and Control. Finally, the presentation will touch upon the DFSS or Design for Six Sigma concepts and how they assist management in making decisions of whether the new product development is ready for prime time or is ready to be deployed in the field.
