The main objective of this investigation is to unearth the extent to which the companies have been benefitted due to Six Sigma implementation. This article presents the results based on the analysis of collective opinion of employees of various Indian manufacturing industries that have implemented Six Sigma. This research also examines interrelationship among various parameters defined in the research. The research revealed that industries are benefitted irrespective of their nature in terms of their growth, financial benefits, productivity and satisfaction of the customer. However, peoples’ equity that deals with the benefits that employees obtain after Six Sigma implementation is not certain.

Before And After

After globalization in the 1990s, the standardizationprocess in manufacturing industries has gainedmomentum. In this study, an attempt has been made to identify the role of Quality Management System (QMS) in enhancing performance in an Indian manufacturing industry, with M/S Ramdevs Motors, a pumps manufacturing industry, as the place of this study.Performance measures like, Increase in financial performance, productivity, etc. have been considered in this study. An opinion survey type questionnaire was used to collect data from the organization. The performance of the company before and after the implementation of QMS was collected, processed and analysed using statistical tools. The results of the studyreveal that the role of QMS has significance in enhancing the performance of the organization but has no significance in financial performance of the organization.

A Company

The purpose of this research is to know how big the role of ISO 9001:2000 to a company that has been applied using cost-based approach to six sigma quality. ISO 9001:2000 is a standard on quality management. With the implementation of ISO 9001:2000 is to determine its effect on fee levels of quality. Where quality costs are the costs accrued or incurred to prevent and improve the quality of which occur as a result of not reaching the specifications of products or services that have been set. The analytical tool used in Six Sigma approach is the number of defects each year in each production department so it can know which department has the largest number of product failure as compared with total production in which the department will be the object of research. Besides, the cost of the quality of the department which has the largest defects will be analyzed to determine the total effectiveness of the department. The results of this study is the successful application of ISO 9001:2000 at PT Honda Precision Parts Manufacturing measured using six sigma where sigma approach in the year 2004-2009 has increased. As for the cost of quality is itself an increase in the cost of prevention and appraisal costs. This shows an improvement in terms of quality has been going well. Based on the above information, it can be concluded that the increase in sigma and increased costs of prevention and appraisal costs are not separated from the role of ISO 9001:2000 which has been applied. It is evident that any improvements made as specified in ISO 9001:2000 concept will cause a rise in the cost of some components in the calculation of quality costs, but improvements are made will affect the production of goods falling NG or defect that ultimately reduce overall quality costs.

Six Sigma Approach

Lean Six Sigma (LSS) enables supply chains to become more efficient and effective in sustaining continuous improvement. The speed, service quality, and the cost of operations impact the supply chain performance. One most popular approach for providing faster responses, improving quality and reducing cost in SCM, is LSS as it combines strengths of both Lean and Six Sigma. LSS is not just about doing things better, it is a way of doing better things. Research establishes complementary relationship of Lean and Six Sigma; summarizes benefits of LSS in SCM and develops various frameworks such as S-V framework and O-T-S framework to emphasize the role of LSS in enhancing efficiency and effectiveness of SCM processes. As a strategic management tool, LSS deployment in SCM is considered to be an important management philosophy, supporting organizations in their efforts to enhance efficiency and effectiveness of operations, satisfy customers and enhance competitive advantages.

The authors consider the internal and external reserves of improving the quality of products at the enterprises that produce reinforced concrete. The research objective was to study and substantiate the external and internal factors, thus improving the effectiveness of quality management. The paper focuses on the use of such tool of sustainable development as "Six Sigma", which is considered as an important factor in product quality management. The paper also features the process of certification as an external tool that can improve quality management in the construction industry. The authors justified the necessity of mandatory certification of construction products when bidding for a tender. The paper also reviews the experience of sustainable production at reinforced concrete plants. The problems of product quality in the industry are of strategic nature and can cause economic, environmental, and other negative consequences. Quality management should become compulsory in the industry since its products are designed exclusively for the domestic market. As a result, its certification according to State Standards ISO 9001 or GOST R ISO 9001 is absolutely voluntary and performs only image-making functions. As far as tenders for state orders are concerned, mandatory certification may solve the existing problems with the quality of construction work. As internal quality management tool, the concept of "Six Sigma" can be useful for concrete works.
