LRamanan, September 2, 2015 Six Sigma A Popular Quality Model for Business

Origin & Evolution of Six Sigma as Business Model • Till 15 Jan 1987, 6σ was a Statistical Term

• Crusade Began at Motorola 1985

• Became Popular / well known when Jack Welch made 6σ as

GE’s Business Strategy in ’95

• Mikel Harry is ‘God father’ of Six Sigma

• In Mikel’s words ‘Father of 6 Sigma’ is Bill Smith

• Mikel & Bill developed MAIC as 4 Stage Problem Solving

Technique. Number of publications in Arizona University

• 1989 Unisys Corp – Harry named 6σ skilled as Black Belts

• 1993 ABB – Harry Teamed with Richard Schroeder

• 1996 GE’s Organization vide Initiative – Jack is the Crusader

• GE’s Jack Popularized & Proved - Six Sigma as a Business

Model

Variation Results in Defects… Defects Results Risks

Variation Could Come from Components or Sub-Systems

Defect from Process Quality

Defect from Product Quality

Defects Results in Loss & Delivers Huge Risks • Cause may arise from Component… But, Effect shall be felt at System

Not Fault of Vehicle or Vehicle Manufacturers as

OEM – But, Sub-system / component failures

which could be from off-the-shelf products, could

lead to system level issues

Products of Today are Complex… With Many Sub-System & Components

Variation - An Example From Manufactured Shaft

• Measured data on the Length of the Shaft Machined in a

Manufacturing Shop for Gear Box Assembly

• All the Measured Data are within the Specification Limits (490 to

510mm)

• Can we Infer about the Process from these Samples of measured

Data?

Data Provides Wealth of Information on RISK

Risk Based Thinking – An OPPORTUNITY for SAVINGS?

Variation is a Risk – Is it an Opportunity !!??

• Measured Lengths from one of RAISE’s Workshop

• Is there an Issue and an Opportunity?

Values, Ethics and Integrity:

• I want to be sure, I never produce even single pencil less than 174mm, which I am committed

More Production from Same Resource

Opportunity of More Savings… Avoid Loss

Existing Process Mean 187.5mm Std. Dev: 0.579mm

Revised Process Thro’ Robust Process Design Mean 177.5mm Std. Dev: 0.579mm

With Values, Ethics and Integrity:

• We are sure, to produce not even single pencil shall be less than 174mm

• But Savings of 10mm per length of Pencil… A company producing 1Mn pencil / day, can produce 54471 pencils from Same Resource, with out any additional investments

• Revenue of 4.02Lakhs/day, with no additional expenses / investments

Cost of Poorly Performing Process – CP3 *

Cost of quality is an expense to the organization due to repair / rework / warranty / Inspection / product re-calls / complaints etc. CP3 range between 25 to 40% for 3σ, 15 to 25% for 4σ, 5 to 15% for 5σ and <1% for 6σ process Each sigma shift provide 10% net income improvement

* Ref: Client, Enterprise & Competitive Intelligence for

Product, Process & Systems Innovation & Design by Dr. Rick L. Edgeman, University of Idaho

Quality Focus – • Reactive to Proactive… • Appraisal to Continuous

Improvement… • Risk Predictions to Mitigation

Six Sigma and Cost of Quality

Key is Understanding Variation (Risk) & Control (Mitigate)

Based on Severity of Issue, Choose the Approach Opinion:

1. Process Design approach: by

defining current defect levels, goals,

measure for defects, identification

of all controllable variations and un-

controllable noise parameters,

deliver robust process design

through DoE, Taguchi methods

2. Product Design Approach: By

identifying and quantifying

parameters by involving R&D efforts

like CAE simulations for quantifying

current, thickness of L-Connector

3. New Design Approach: If the issue

can not be addressed by process or

design changes – Adopt New

Design Approach through DFSS

Dispenser by the customer, to comfort

him with hot or cold water to tap as he

needs

• Water Manufacturer and Dispenser

Manufacturers are different

• Issues of water dispenser damages

during loading water cans

• Low hanging Fruits and Process

Need Assessment & Goal Setting • The disc of the cap shall be meeting different

designs of the dispenser and loading conditions.

• All of the stems of the dispenser in the field are not

of same dia, hence force that is transferred on the

disc during piercing

• The type of loading the can (inclination to abuse)

and resultant sliding on the cap results in varying

force

• Force max is not weight of water

• Water can max vol results in Max Force

• Current issue from the cap at the present level of

xxxx DPMO after all process improvements &

changes that has been exhausted

• To be brought down to 3.4 issues / Millions through
