    Six Sigma - the pursuit of perfect quality

    Six Sigma is a quality management methodology aimed at minimizing errors in processes. Its name derives from the statistical symbol "σ", which represents standard deviation, a measure of variation from the expected outcome or average. In Six Sigma, "σ" denotes the process evaluation level or the degree of defect reduction. In practice, this implies that an organization successfully meets the expectations of 99.9996% of its customers, making it highly reliable.
