Description
Prerequisite – Complete either Six Sigma Green Belt or Black Belt course.
This unique training program leverages the skill sets obtained through use of the Six Sigma DMAIC process. This course introduces Six Sigma tools and methods necessary to achieve the desired performance levels on multiple Critical to Quality (CTQ) characteristics for a new product or service offering. One case study will be used throughout the course together with additional exercises to demonstrate various tools and methods. The case study will start with a product concept, design constraints for the product and multiple critical to quality characteristics the product must satisfy. By the end of the workshop students will be able to realize their design in a completed product prototype they have built and evaluated. Upon successful mastery of the DFSS course material the student will earn a certificate of successful completion of the DFSS course. Duration - 1 week.
Goal
You will learn the advanced tools and concepts including:
Quality Function Deployment (Flowdown and Flowback)
Design Scorecards
Pugh Matrix
Monte Carlo Simulation (building a Model related to the Case Study)
Introduction to Triz, Axiomatic Design and Design for X
Reliability (Weibull Distribution)
You will learn how to use these tools to design a product or service to meet several Critical to Quality characteristics.
