About Six Sigma and SixSigmaHosting.com 
Six Sigma is a methodology for pursuing continuous quality improvement and reducing inherent variability. It is clearly focused on customer-driven expectations and requires thorough process and product understanding. When Motorola’s Semi-Conductor Products Sector sought to limit damage and reduce costs associated with wafer transport, it chose to work with the 3M Industrial Services and Solutions Division to develop and implement systematic improvements to their wafer transport process. The ongoing goals included improving the reliability of wafer transportation, eliminating damage, reducing freight and packing materials costs, increasing productivity, and improving customer satisfaction. Since both companies employ six sigma for manufacturing, they agreed to apply this methodology to supply chain execution, not a traditional area of six sigma focus.

Lean Thinking is:
|
A systematic method of identifying simple solutions to eliminate waste and to create products and services at the right speed and correct quality that the customer demands. |
|
A focus on value-added process steps and reduction of non-value-added steps such as wasted motion, product defects, excess inventory, over-production, waiting time, over-processing and transportation. |
Together, Six Sigma and Lean Thinking provide a process that uses fact-based analytical tools and methodologies for preventing defects in products, processes and services, reducing cycle times and controlling costs to generate value for customers. This world-class business strategy provides exceptional opportunities for employee development, greater return to shareholders and improved products and services for customers.
So, What Does This Mean For A Professional
Business Web Site Hosting Company?
We are continually evaluating and monitoring our business processes to make sure we're delivering the highest level of support in professional internet web hosting to our customers. Six Sigma is a structured discipline that enforces this approach.
Historically, Six Sigma was focused on manufacturing processes, and with great success. Over the past 10 years, there have been many large companies implementing Six Sigma into their business processes, such as Motorola, General Electric and 3M.
The number of defective parts has been reduced substantially, for companies that have implemented the Six Sigma approach. Eventually, Six Sigma was used to improve process oriented business functions, such as software project development, Human Resources, Supply Chain Engineering, and others.
