Six Sigma is a highly disciplined process focused on satisfying customers by delivering nearly perfect products and services. In today’s competitive market, consistently maintaining satisfied customers is essential to growth and success. Major corporations such as GE, Motorola, Honeywell and Ford, have demonstrated significant savings and increased profits by implementing Six Sigma processes in their business.

The Six Sigma process gets its name from the way it measures perfection - the absence of defects in the products and services. A defect is failing to deliver what the customer wants. Here is a sample of Six Sigma metrics:

One Sigma: 690,000 defects per million opportunities

Two Sigma: 308,733 defects per million opportunities

Three Sigma: 66,803 defects per million opportunities

3.5 Sigma: Average level of perfection – around 30,000 defects per million opportunities

Six Sigma: 3.4 defects per million opportunities

Six Sigma is not a "get rich quick" methodology. Instead, Six Sigma is a way to get rich by performing properly and consistently. Realistically, a company shouldn't expect more than a breakeven the first year of implementation. The bigger profits follow with consistently following the improved processes. The structured problem-solving methodology follows the DMAIC process that includes these steps:

Define the project goals & customer deliverables
Measure the process to determine current performance
Analyze and determine causes of defects
Improve the process by eliminating causes
Control future process performance

In a work environment, each person contributes unique experiences, values, personalities and perspectives. When managed properly, this mix can result in innovative ideas and a more flexible team environment. If not managed properly, however, the conflict can result in lowered morale and poor performance. Here are some tips to help you manage the inevitable conflicts that arise when people are just being themselves.

Rookie mistakes. We are all guilty of them. Whether it's letting a client slide without a contract, entering a long-term agreement with a vendor we soon come to loathe, underpricing our products or services, or allowing someone to get too far behind on their invoice before we cut off the faucet...each mistake hurts. If we are lucky it only hurts our pride, but quite often we get burned - that is, we take a hit in the pocketbook, too. Something most small business owners cannot afford. The important thing is - what will you do now?

The Portfolio, Programme and Project Management Maturity Model (P3M3) is a reference guide for structured best practice. It breaks down the broad disciplines of portfolio, programme and project management into a hierarchy of Key Process Areas (KPAs). The hierarchical approach enables organisations to assess their current capability and then plot a roadmap for improvement prioritised by those KPAs which will make the biggest impact on performance. Research demonstrates that ROI from process improvement using a maturity model approach ranges from 2:1 to 27:1. Most articles on portfolio, programme and project management maturity models focus on the 'accreditation' aspects of the model. This article focuses on how to use the model as a framework for process improvement by applying change management techniques from Six Sigma.
