This measuring and analyzing process performance training develops strong skills in defining, measuring, and analysing processes to enable accurate, data-driven improvement. You learn the Measure phase and key tools such as SIPOC, process maps, cause-and-effect analysis, Value Stream Mapping, and FMEA to identify risks and performance gaps. The course also covers Six Sigma statistics, Measurement System Analysis, and process capability techniques to assess variation, reliability, and short- and long-term performance, enabling confident, evidence-based improvement decisions.
By the end of this course, you will be able to:
- Apply Measure Phase Tools: Define, map, and analyse processes using SIPOC, process maps, and risk analysis tools
- Use Six Sigma Statistics: Analyse data using basic metrics, charts, and distributions
- Validate Measurement Systems: Assess data accuracy and reliability using MSA, Gage R&R, and attribute studies
- Assess Process Capability: Evaluate process performance and variation to support improvement decisions
No prior advanced statistical knowledge required; ideal for professionals looking to strengthen measurement, analysis, and data-driven improvement skills in Lean Six Sigma projects.
Explore the Six Sigma Measure phase to define, map, and analyse processes. Learn Measure phase objectives and tools to document processes effectively. Create cause-and-effect and fishbone diagrams, build process maps at multiple levels, and use SIPOC for end-to-end visibility. Apply Value Stream Maps, X-Y diagrams, and FMEA to identify risks, relationships, and performance gaps, enabling accurate measurement and data-driven improvement.
