Six Sigma is a methodology that utilizes a formal process and a variety of tools, including statistical analysis, to help companies reduce their costs and improve profitability. It is a customer-focused strategy that applies a set of proven tools and methods to help Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control (DMAIC) processes within the company.
Six Sigma Champions lead change throughout the organization. For successful Six Sigma implementation, senior plant/company leadership and other key personnel must participate in Champion training. Champions do not typically lead Six Sigma projects, but must fully support the process for the company to realize their full potential for success. Potential Champions include those people who own the processes to be improved, make resources available, evaluate financial cost justifications, and/or supervise the individuals selected as Black Belts and Green Belts.
IMEC’s two-day Six Sigma Champion training includes:
• A basic overview of Six Sigma including the DMAIC process
• Definition of the Champion role
• Process for identifying potential Six Sigma projects
• Guidelines for managing Six Sigma projects
• Measures for evaluating project success
• Selection and retention of Black Belt/Green Belt candidates
Potential Benefits
Thorough Champion Training enables key staff to have a better overall understanding of the expectations for implementing a Six Sigma methodology, as well as increasing the ability to communicate and collaborate as a Six Sigma team. Upon subsequent implementation of Six Sigma, the company will be positioned to realize significant savings through each completed Six Sigma effort, which will provide short-term payback and long-term, ongoing savings, through improvement of their processes. |
