Abstract

Six Sigma is a powerful methodology that reduces variation, minimizes costs increase product and process quality in an organization, and ultimately maximizes customer satisfaction. This study examines the pros and cons of Six Sigma by exploring organizations’ perceptions of their implementations. In order to achieve this, survey data were gathered from 66 companies from different industries. The impact of Six Sigma on various performance dimensions is explored for different stages of Six Sigma implementation within organizations. Frequently used Six Sigma project types and the issues related to Six Sigma applications are determined from the perspective of its practitioners. Finally, for companies that do not-implement Six Sigma, reasons for not implementing this initiative are analyzed from multiple perspectives, i.e., cost of Six Sigma implementation, Six Sigma awareness, risks, the necessity of Six Sigma, the sufficiency of the company, and Six Sigma’s suitability for the company. Kolmogorov–Smirnov tests are conducted to determine the differences that exist between different stages of Six Sigma experience in terms of performance scores. The main reasons for not implementing Six Sigma are verified through exploratory factor analysis, as a unique approach in the literature. The results of this study can assist managers to prepare action plans toward Six Sigma success and can encourage managers, who currently do not implement Six Sigma, to initiate the methodology within their organizations.

加强对六西格码的理解:洞察六西格码的各个维度和方面

摘要

六西格码是一种强大的方法,可以减少变化,最大限度地降低成本,提高组织中的产品和流程质量,并最终最大限度地提高客户满意度。本研究通过探索组织对其实施的看法来检验六西格码的优缺点。为了实现这一目标,我们收集了来自不同行业的 66 家公司的调查数据。针对组织内实施 6 Sigma 的不同阶段探讨了 6 Sigma 对各种绩效维度的影响。经常使用的六西格码项目类型和与六西格码应用相关的问题是从其从业者的角度确定的。最后,对于未实施六西格码的企业,从多个角度分析了未实施该倡议的原因,即:六西格码实施成本、六西格码意识、风险、六西格码的必要性、公司的充分性以及六西格码对公司的适用性。进行 Kolmogorov-Smirnov 测试以确定 6 Sigma 经验的不同阶段之间在性能得分方面存在的差异。未实施六西格码的主要原因通过探索性因素分析得到验证,这是文献中的一种独特方法。这项研究的结果可以帮助管理人员制定六西格码成功的行动计划,并可以鼓励目前未实施六西格码的管理人员在其组织内启动该方法。进行 Kolmogorov-Smirnov 测试以确定 6 Sigma 经验的不同阶段之间在性能得分方面存在的差异。未实施六西格码的主要原因通过探索性因素分析得到验证,这是文献中的一种独特方法。这项研究的结果可以帮助管理人员制定六西格码成功的行动计划,并可以鼓励目前未实施六西格码的管理人员在其组织内启动该方法。进行 Kolmogorov-Smirnov 测试以确定 6 Sigma 经验的不同阶段之间在性能得分方面存在的差异。未实施六西格码的主要原因通过探索性因素分析得到验证,这是文献中的一种独特方法。这项研究的结果可以帮助管理人员制定六西格码成功的行动计划,并可以鼓励目前未实施六西格码的管理人员在其组织内启动该方法。
