Subject:Six Sigma Info From:Suzette Seveny <sseveny -at- PETVALU -dot- COM> Date:Mon, 29 Mar 1999 15:49:37 -0500
I have been tasked with documenting a Decision/Project Management process for
our company. All I have been given to work with is a cryptic 145 page memo of
ramblings. There is nobody I can get information from at this point, they want
to see an initial draft first.
They compare the process to Six Sigma (which I believe could be called "Beyond
TQM"). Can anybody direct me to any internet resources on Six Sigma, that
might perhaps lay out the various components, factors, analytical processes,
etc. I think if I could do that, this 145 page memo might make some sense. I
haven't got time to read a book, but I am TQM and ISO9000 trained, and could
probably get the gist.
Or, if anybody is working for a company that uses Six Sigma could give me a
quick overview, it would be much appreciated.
