Six Sigma is a disciplined, statistical-based, data-driven approach and continuous improvement methodology for eliminating defects in a product, process or service. It was developed by Motorola in early to middle 1980’s based on quality management fundamentals, then became a popular management approach at General Electric (GE) in the early 1990’s. Today, hundreds of companies around the world have adopted Six Sigma as a way of doing business.
