2004 ICTC Executive Forum: Six Sigma for global competitiveness.This International Coatings Technology course presents a concise overview of the Six Sigma Not to be confused with Sigma 6. Six Sigma is a set of practices originally developed by Motorola to systematically improve processes by eliminating defects.[1] A defect is defined as nonconformity of a product or service to its specifications. concepts that can take a business to world-class excellence. Six Sigma is a statistics-based approach that defines a defect defect - bug as anything that results in customer dissatisfaction. Six modules will be covered throughout the course: * What is Six Sigma? * Historical Background * Six Sigma in a Nutshell nut·shell n. The shell enclosing the meat of a nut. Idiom: in a nutshell In a few words; concisely: Just give me the facts in a nutshell. Adv. 1. * Stepwise stepwise incremental; additional information is added at each step. stepwise multiple regression used when a large number of possible explanatory variables are available and there is difficulty interpreting the partial regression Procedure for Implementing Six Sigma * Case Studies * Implementation Strategy and Plan Attendees Will Learn -- To examine the Six Sigma philosophy, which prescribes a structured, analytical analytical, analytic pertaining to or emanating from analysis. analytical control control of confounding by analysis of the results of a trial or test. approach to decision-making that reduces defects, increases customer satisfaction, improves profit, and grows market share -- To develop a clear understanding of what Six Sigma is, if it is right for your organization, and how to go about deploying Six Sigma in your company -- How to apply Six Sigma to static (discrete-parts manufacturing and transactional) applications -- To enable participants to improve the performance of processes and transactions under their jurisdiction Who Should Attend All coatings professionals involved in the various facets of the manufacture and delivery of coatings products and services. Attendance Limit This course is limited to 20 attendees. Admittance Admittance The ratio of the current to the voltage in an alternating-current circuit. In terms of complex current I and voltage V, the admittance of a circuit is given by Eq. (1), and is related to the impedance of the circuit Z by Eq. (2). to the Executive Forum programs by pre-qualification only. Payment will be processed when admittance is confirmed. Two lunches and continental breakfasts will be provided. Those admitted into the program also receive admittance to the International Coatings Expo and the Annual Meeting Program.
