Mechanical Objects

According to the strategy of Total Quality Management (TQM) [7] effective quality assurance of mechanical objects is maintained by means of permanent monitoring processes carried out in the cycle of product formation. The quality assessment of processes and the optimization of their crucial elements are the necessary condition for the improvement of efficiency and achievement of high level of customer satisfaction [15]. So far most of the techniques used for the process improvement are adopted to Lean Six Sigma methodology [1, 2, 11, 12, 17]. Achieving the quality on the level of 6 sigma is a primary goal of applying this methodology. Opinions exist that Lean Six Sigma should be implemented in the large number of areas of the life, and its effects (essential improvement in financial results through the reduction of poor quality costs) are hard to overrate. High effectiveness of every single process that is possible to achieve by applying the Lean Six Sigma strategy, became a source of inspiration for the study of Design For Six Sigma (DFSS) [4, 8, 12, 13], with purpose to improve object quality by implementing the innovation in product development.

Insight Into

This paper presents tools of Six Sigma for Telecom Industries; these can achieve powerful operational improvements that produce sustainable business benefits. Six Sigma Qualtec’s dedicated Six Sigma for Telecom practice is specifically designed to help traditional and modern telecommunications providers, become more efficient in their operating procedures. By learning and implementing improvements such as Voice of the Customer (VOC), Six Sigma, Business Process Management Design for Six Sigma and Lean Enterprise principles, those companies will be able to dramatically improve the way they do business thus attracting and keeping customers in this hyper-competitive industry. This paper maps some of the changes in the telecom markets that resulted from competitive entry and gives an insight into the dynamics of competitive markets in relation to quality improvement. Additionally, the presentation seeks to demonstrate that in the quest for the particular competitive outcome via independent and transparent regulation.

Six Sigma Methodology

Abstract Quality techniques and Design for Six Sigma methodology are complex areas that need to be understood through correlation of theoretical and practical teaching. Universities started to apply different approaches for achieving better results, on building greater knowledge and skills for their students. The paper presents a methodology of teaching quality techniques and DFSS methodology, an approach that is focused on understanding the concepts through technical examples from industry and applying the knowledge within a project. A model is proposed for teaching Design for Six Sigma methodology through a workshop done in the classroom. The students are split into groups and will practically work through the main elements of DFSS methodology, for improving the quality of a chosen product by re-designing it. The objective of research is to analyze the performance of this methodology and to identify the strong points. The measurement is done through feedbacks received from students, that is presented at the end of the paper. The methodologies used during research consist of bibliographic research, observational study on classroom, questionnaire and interview technique.
