Importance of the Six Sigma Primary Metric
Six Sigma Primary Metric Primary Metric: The Six Sigma Primary Metric is mandatory! How does one know if a project does what it sets out to do? Every project must choose the right metrics to determine success. Primary metrics are the center point for the work to ensure that the direction and decisions made throughout…

What is Six Sigma or Lean Six Sigma What is Six Sigma or what is today known as “Lean Six Sigma”? It is a data-driven methodology and process improvement approach that combines Lean and Six Sigma elements. It aims to improve organizational processes’ efficiency, quality, and effectiveness. Here’s a breakdown of the two components: Lean…

What is EWMA Chart? The EWMA chart (Exponentially-Weighted Moving Average Chart) is a control chart monitoring the exponentially-weighted average of previous and present subgroup means. The more recent data get more weight than older data. It detects the shift of the process mean from the process target over time. The underlying distribution of the EWMA…

What is the Paired t Test? A Third type of Two Sample t-Test is the Paired t Test. This test is used when the two populations are dependent of each other, so each data point from one distribution corresponds to a data point in the other distribution. When using a paired t test, the test…
