Will You Add? - Six Sigma – The Customer Angle
Accepting a check by phone, fax or web is a great way to increase revenues, decrease collection headaches and offer new payment options BUT there are several essential “things” that you MUST know.First let’s talk about all the great benefits: 1) You don’t have to wait for a customer to mail in payment. 2) It’s a LOT less expensive than a credit card. A credit card transaction always involves a discount rate. Typicall

Failure to implement the recommendations of an investigation into what ails an organisation is a norm for most organisations.For some organisations it is a serial norm. As a consultant arriving to complete the analysis of a perceived problem or to determine the problem behind some prevalent symptoms, one of our first requests is to have delivered to us previous reports into the problem.It is normal to have delivered to us te
Voice of the Customer
Six Sigma places highest priority on customer data input which provides the much-needed insight into what the customers need and what he or she is thinking about the products already on the market as a measure of performance. The design team needs to understand the requirements of the customer and predict whether the proposed (or the existing) design meets customer expectations.
How Is Customer Satisfaction Ensured?
All business activities are customer centric. Even the best product may not sell if it possesses useless value for the customers. A point in the case is the satellite phone Irridium© that Motorola developed some time ago. Although it was the first and the best in its class, it failed in the market because the customer did not find any value in that particular product.
1. Customer’s Experience Of Defects and Costs: Customers have a different perspective about quality and cost. The variation in satisfaction levels across different market segments and regions needs to be analyzed as a first step towards reaching goals. In Six Sigma, customer input, however scattered it may be, when analyzed can be categorized making way for an in-depth understanding of company goals.

There is no room for a disconnect between the image your firm is projecting and the position you seek to carve out of the marketplace. More than ever, shifts in the legal industry are shining a bright light on business development. As the face of the firm evolves, its storytellers, i.e. the logo, firm brochure, practice area literature, recruitment material, trade publication ads, event invitations, newsletters, and the web site need to r

I remember when I began my first business. There were just not enough hours in the day. And this was true for each of the 7 days of the week. My daughter was only 3 months old when I started that business. I was not working outside of the home.I was now looking at needing time to be a mom to my newborn daughter, be a daughter to my two wonderful parents, be a wife to my husband, take care of the household and now run a business.er and predict whether the proposed (or the existing) design meets customer expectations.

The other day I was cleaning out my refrigerator. I hate to admit it but it's not something I do often - note to self, delegate fridge cleaning.While I was tossing out stale bread and stinky leftovers (some I couldn't quite recognize...yikes!), it occurred to me that in business the things that prevent you from growing rapidly are often found inside your business.Yes, lack of marketing, poor selling skills and an inef

Plant Maintenance managers seek to effectively utilize existing resources to reduce operating costs and save money that increases the bottom line of the company. The role of an effective plant maintenance operation is to consistently maintain quality pollution prevention control measures at all timesThe segment of plant management that is most susceptible to pollution control fines is in the area of landscape maintenance. Each ra
2. Product Relevance: The relevance of any product to the customer stems from its utility, cost and quality. A robust design is not just strong but simple, flexible and idiot-proof. It consistently produces a high level of performance despite huge variations in manufacturing and customer needs. Anything not adding value will not get customer attention.
3. Adjusting Process Capability to Customer Requirements: The need for adjusting the process capability is basically considered in DMAIC (a Six Sigma methodology for existing products), without putting significant burden on the cost. This begins with estimation of financial impact, feasibility studies of the technicalities involved and market uptake. The outcome of these studies will guide any process adjustments.
4. Controlling Process Variations: The uncertainties of processing are the variation that needs to be tackled as a critical step in achieving the 3.4 defect threshold. Uncertainties arise mainly due to a huge number of key elements in a process, outdated process steps and lack of control. Variability surrounding a product or process can be rooted out at the design and analytical stages.
5. Removing Roadblocks: The roadblocks for Six Sigma implementation can sometimes be within the organization, such as trans-jurisdictional roadblocks which sometimes threaten the effective im
