Overview/Description
Businesses exist to meet the needs of the customers they serve. As such, you must listen to the voice of your customers and build processes that deliver products and services to them. It is also necessary to review processes to ensure they remain within the targets and specifications set by your customers. Measuring the capability and performance of a process is an important activity in Six Sigma DMAIC methodology. Six Sigma teams use process capability and performance measurements, such as process capability (Cp), process capability index (Cpk), process performance (Pp), and process performance index (Ppk), to indicate the current state of a process and its sigma levels. This course will examine the key concepts of process capability and performance, and the methods of measuring and interpreting them in a process capability study. It covers the calculation and interpretation of process capability and performance measurements. It also identifies key considerations for measuring process capability, such as short-term and long-term capability and process capability for discrete data. This course is aligned with the ASQ Certified Six Sigma Green Belt certification exam and is designed to assist learners as part of their exam preparation.
Target Audience
Candidates seeking Six Sigma Green Belt certification; quality professionals, engineers, production managers, and frontline supervisors; process owners and champions charged with the responsibility of improving quality and processes at the organizational or departmental level
