In Six Sigma, Black and Green Belts will use several different methods in order to improve quality within the DMAIC model. They are usually incorporated into the software that is used by the business owner in order to make it easier for them. Six Sigma tools enable teams to analyze data effectively and design efficient workflows.
One important Six Sigma tool is the quality function deployment method or QFD. This method is used to gain knowledge about the requirements of the customer, attempting to meet their needs to a satisfactory level. The deployment part of this method is from earlier times when a face to face meeting was required. In these instances, a quality control researcher would visit the site of the problem to gain knowledge about what they need to make them satisfied.
Diagrams are often used as a tool for cause and effect control. The fishbone diagram is used most often, offering a good view of what the problem is, what parts of the company it effects, and what is causing it. Narrowing down the elements of the problem in a diagram makes it easier to come to effective solutions.
Learning the cause and effect of a problem helps to solve the issue or at least come up with some ideas for resolution. This is an extension of sorts to the diagram, as it also relies on learning the cause and effect for specific answers to be found. Using the C&E matrix during the measuring phase of the DMAIC or DMADV methodology will help narrow down possible solutions and contingency plans before anything is actually done about the matter.
Contingency plans are a necessity whenever a problem is being analyzed for solutions. Things can and do go wrong with nearly every project. Having a project run completely smooth is a rare occurrence. It is because of this that contingency plans are necessary. The issues that surround a project must also be identified in order to create contingency plans that cover all the bases. The Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) method identifies the problem as well as the outside factors that are affecting it.
This method of analysis allows the researcher to list possible failures, taking into account how likely it is to happen and how negatively it will affect the project. Then, the solutions are listed in order and prioritized so that if the need for the plan should arise, measures will be taken quickly to see that it is put into action before the project is affected.
Another method used in the Six Sigma model is the T-Test, which establishes how confident the researcher can be with the measurements they receive. This method helps teams make sure the results they receive are valid and true.
Charts are also used as Six Sigma tools. Charts are a good way to put a visual image to the numbers on the books. It can also help get a better realization of the results that have come from various tests that have been done. Much can be learned from using these methods, and they are excellent ways to validate business research.
