Six Sigma is a quality management program pioneered by Motorola in the mid-1980s to achieve "six sigma" levels of quality. It has spread to other manufacturing companies and is used by GE Aircraft Engines to operate at six-sigma levels of quality.
One great example of this is GE Aircraft Engines, which strives to operate at six sigma levels of quality. But it's not just limited to manufacturing – service companies are also embracing Six Sigma.
In fact, in 2000, Fort Wayne, Indiana became the first city to implement the program in a city government. This goes to show how versatile and effective Six Sigma can be, no matter what industry you're in. So if you're looking to improve your quality management practices, consider giving Six Sigma a try.
