Six Sigma

Kkingsandqueens13y ago
Hey there, I want to know to what extent six sigma is examined in p5 paper, any numerical calculations and history details explaining the deviations concept and all that should be done or not?

No numerical calculations. Just know DMAIC and the concept of gradual improvement.

what is the concept of gradual improvement? and one more thing has the paper pattern of p5 changed, i have read some where that now section A will have a 50 marks case study, can you verify this please?
kengarrettkengarrettTutor13y ago#3
Gradual improvement means make and improvement, see how that does, then make another etc. so that bit by bit you achieve very significant improvement. Yes the format is now 1 50 mark question for Part A then 2 from 3 at 25 marks each. If not changed yet, our P5 material will soon be changed to reflect that.
