    Sigma is a statistical unit of measure that reflectsprocess capability. The sigma scale of measure isperfectly correlated to such characteristics asdefects-per-unit, parts-per-million defective, and the

    probability of a failure/error.

    A Six Sigma Process

    The 1.5

    shift is used as an off-set in the centering of the mean to

    generally account for dynamic non-random shifts in the process. Itrepresents the average (estimated) amount of change a typical

    process will exhibit over many cycles of that process.

    What is Cost of Poor Quality?

    In addition to the direct costs associated with finding and fixing

    defects, Cost of Poor Quality also includes:

    The hidden cost of failing to meet customer expectations the first time

    The hidden opportunity for increased efficiency

    The hidden potential for higher profits

    The hidden loss in market share The hidden increase in production cycle time

    The hidden labor associated with ordering replacement material

    The hidden costs associated with disposing of defects

    The hidden cost of rework

    For most companies today, the cost of poor quality is likely to be

    25 % of sales. For Jabil, thats over $1 billion each year.

    7 Principles of Creative Problem Solving

    7 Principles of Creative Problem Solving

    Uniqueness Principle

    Purposes Principle

    Solution After Next Principle

    Systems Principle

    Limited Information Collection Principle

    People Design Principle

    Betterment Timeline Principle

    1 Uniqueness Principle

  • 8/10/2019 01_Intro to 6 Sigma

    62/77

    Jabil Technology 62

    1. Uniqueness Principle

    Assume initially that the problem, issue,or opportunity is different. Dont copya solution or use a technique fromelsewhere just because the situationmay appear to be similar.

    "Discovery consists of looking at the same thing as

    everyone else and thinking something different."-Albert Szent-Gyorgi

    Uniqueness

  • 8/10/2019 01_Intro to 6 Sigma

    63/77

    Jabil Technology 63

    Uniqueness

    No two situations are alike, For starters, peoplein each are always different

    Each problem is embedded in a unique array ofrelated problems

    Problems that may look alike have differentpurpose needs

    Tomorrows technology is already different than

    todays

    2 Purposes Principle

  • 8/10/2019 01_Intro to 6 Sigma

    64/77

    Jabil Technology 64

    2. Purposes Principle

    Explore and expand purposes tounderstand what really needsto be accomplished.

    "It is not enough to just do your best or work hard; You

    must know what to work on."

    -W. Edwards Deming

    Purpose

  • 8/10/2019 01_Intro to 6 Sigma

    65/77

    Jabil Technology 65

    Purpose

    Provides a means to:

    transform a problem into a productive change

    avoid working on the wrong problem

    Peop le tend to accept a problem as p resentedto them and , in do ing so, almost assuredly

    el im inate the opportuni ty for breakthrough

    Narrow purpose, few solutions

    Broad purpose, many solutions

    3. Solution-After-Next Principle

  • 8/10/2019 01_Intro to 6 Sigma

    67/77

    Jabil Technology 67

    Think future solutions for the focus purpose and

    work backwards. Consider the solution youwould recommend if in three years you had tostart all over. Make changes today based onwhat might be the solution of the future.

    Creativity consists of coming up with many

    ideas, not just that one great idea.

    - Charles Thompson

    S-A-N

  • 8/10/2019 01_Intro to 6 Sigma

    68/77

    Jabil Technology 68

    S-A-N

    Puts a time frame on the ideal solution to bedeveloped

    Its future orientation permits you to start fresh

    It encourages stimulation lines of questioningthat lead to alternative ideal solutions

    It establishes the concept of regularity as aguideline for designing the ideal system

    4 Systems Principle

  • 8/10/2019 01_Intro to 6 Sigma

    69/77

    Jabil Technology 69

    4. Systems Principle

    Everything we seek to create andrestructure is a system. Think ofsolutions and ideas as a system ofeight elements. Use a solution

    framework that includes all elementsand interrelationships.

    "Problems and solutions nest within a complex array

    of related systems and problems."

    - Bob Wiele

    5. Needed Information Collection Principle

  • 8/10/2019 01_Intro to 6 Sigma

    70/77

    Jabil Technology 70

    5. Needed Information Collection Principle

    Collect only the information that is

    necessary to continue the solution-finding process. Know your purposes forcollecting data. Study solutions, notproblems.

    "The breeding ground for barriers to fresh ideas and

    the implementation of them is in the detailed

    analysis of what exists."

    Dont Over-Collect Data

  • 8/10/2019 01_Intro to 6 Sigma

    71/77

    Jabil Technology 71

    Don t OverCollect Data

    The benef it of l im i t ing inform ation col lect ionto what is needed, resu l ts in:

    requiring less total time, cost, energy, anddocument handling

    providing a high quality of usableinformation

    eliminating the defensiveness of people

    when reviewing data about what exists identifying better system interrelationships

    providing guidance to implementingsolutions.

    Collect Data Selectively

  • 8/10/2019 01_Intro to 6 Sigma

    72/77

    Jabil Technology 72

    Collect Data Selectively

    Determine what information is really needed -and not really needed

    Collect data on purposes and possiblesolutions rather than initially on the problem

    Extensive data gathering may make you anexpert on the problem but it may also preventyou from seeing many alternatives.

    Collect information from a variety of sourcesand share it broadly

    Ask how the solution could work -- becomean expert about possible future solutions

    6 People Design Principle

  • 8/10/2019 01_Intro to 6 Sigma

    73/77

    Jabil Technology 73

    6. People Design Principle

    Give everyone who will be affected by thesolution or idea the opportunity toparticipate throughout the process of itsdevelopment with the other principles. A

    solution will work only if people knowabout it and help to develop and improveit.

    "We cannot talk people into accepting the future if

    they haven't been there."

    Benefits from People Design

  • 8/10/2019 01_Intro to 6 Sigma

    74/77

    Jabil Technology 74

    Benefits from People Design

    Their knowledge of the "secrets" (purposes,

    technology fiction, solutions-after-next andsystems) of the front line

    Their support of the larger purposes to beachieved rather than resistance to change

    Getting the creative (technology fiction) juicesflowing

    Getting the team to focus on customer-based

    perspectives Their emotional attachment to a future they

    helped to create

    Together reaching better solutions

    7. Betterment Timeline Principle

    Install changes with built-in seeds of futurechange. Know when to fix it before itbreaks. Know when to change it.

    Jabil Technology 76

    Breakthrough Thinking

    Refutes the conventional wisdom that you

    shouldn't fix something if it isn't broken. For a solution to continue to be effective, it

    has to be maintained and upgradedcontinually toward the target solution-after-

    next.

    The assumptions, purposes, technology,environment and constraints upon which

    the solution is based change with time. Even the target needs to be updated

    regularly.
