2. 12/2/2003 Six Sigma Green Belt (Ref: The Six Sigma Way Team Fieldbook) 2 Output of Measurement Selection (A1) Project Y variable(s) (CTQ) identified and linked to problem/goal
At least one X variable (predictor) to help find cause of Y variable
Start with stratification factor as initial type of X variable
Plan for making sure you know:
Where to collect measurements
Data is available
It is feasible (time, money, personnel) to collect data
Exercise: CTQ Tree
Exercise: Measurement Assessment Tree
3. 12/2/2003 Six Sigma Green Belt (Ref: The Six Sigma Way Team Fieldbook) 3 Output of Operational Definition (A2) Clear, concise, detailed, unambiguous description of what is being measured
Definitions of key terms like defect, product and service
Guidelines on how to interpret the routine and the unusual
Initial data collection plan for what (sets up the when and how)
Use Operational Definition Worksheet (pg. 169)
4. 12/2/2003 Six Sigma Green Belt (Ref: The Six Sigma Way Team Fieldbook) 4 Output of Identifying Data Sources (A3) Identification of existing data sources that will meet some (or all) measurement needs. Criteria for acceptable existing data include:
Used the same operational definitions developed for the project collection efforts (especially in agreeing with customer definitions)
Structured to support analysis stage (i.e. has required stratification factors)
Identification of new data sources to needed to meet requirements
Validating of ability to access and sort existing data
5. 12/2/2003 Six Sigma Green Belt (Ref: The Six Sigma Way Team Fieldbook) 5 Prepare Data Collection and Sampling Plan (A4) Identify/confirm stratification factors
Must begin with some idea of the “end game”
Data exploration (analysis stage) lives or dies on decisions made here
Develop sampling scheme
Create data collection forms
6. 12/2/2003 Six Sigma Green Belt (Ref: The Six Sigma Way Team Fieldbook) 6 Developing the Sampling Scheme (A4.2) Choice – Population or Process sampling?
Population sampling: Large (essentially infinite), homogeneous pool of data
Process sampling: Sample taken from a “running process stream”
Ref: Tables 9-1 and 10-2 and Figures 10-6 to 10-10
Accounting for “sampling bias”
Bad sampling processes: convenience sampling and judgment sampling
Good sampling processes: systematic sampling, random sampling, stratified sampling
Setting the Confidence Interval (CI) (Detailed discussion at end of Measure Stage of DMAIC model)
Typical interval is set at 95% (this is Minitab default)
Must know something about process to ballpark the sample size for a 95% CI
Exercise: Manual Sample size calculation (pg. 171-172)
7. 12/2/2003 Six Sigma Green Belt (Ref: The Six Sigma Way Team Fieldbook) 7 Creating Data Collection Forms (A4.3) Avoiding pitfalls:
KISS
Good labeling
Space for identifying data: date, time, collector
Have consistent structure
Include key STRATIFICATION FACTORS
Types of collection forms:
Check sheets
Data sheets
Travelers: Excellent method to “pair data” when stratification factor and Y-variable measurement don’t occur at same place and/or time

9. 12/2/2003 Six Sigma Green Belt (Ref: The Six Sigma Way Team Fieldbook) 9 Output of Implement/Refine Measurement Process (A5) Review/finalize collection plan
Perform Measurement System Analysis including Gage R&R, bias assessment, stability and linearity testing, and calibration
Prepare workplace: Let all know what’s going on
Tested collection procedures:
KISS and trial run
Validate collector training
Collect data
Monitor measurement accuracy and refine
Exercise: Gage R&R Assessment (continuous and discrete)

12. 12/2/2003 Six Sigma Green Belt (Ref: The Six Sigma Way Team Fieldbook) 12 Calculate Baseline Sigma Levels (B1) Key definitions
Unit: Item being processed (focus of the project)
Defect: Failure to meet customer expectation
Defect Opportunity: Chance for product/service to be defective
Guidelines for “defect opportunity” definition
Focus on “defects that are important to the customer”
Should reflect “number of places in the process where it can go wrong, NOT all the ways it can go wrong”
Focus on routine defects – i.e. don’t count the “rare event”
Group similar defects in a single “defect category”
Be consistent (within defect and across company)
Don’t change operation definition without compelling reason
Simple 4-step process

13. 12/2/2003 Six Sigma Green Belt (Ref: The Six Sigma Way Team Fieldbook) 13 Calculate Final and First-Pass Yield (B2) Looks at the internal structure of the process
Two different ways of looking at yield and process sigma: final yield and first-pass yield
Final yield:
How many defect-free items emerge at the end of the process including those that were successfully reworked
Internal defects and their costs are hidden
First-pass yield:
Number of items that make it through entire process without any rework included
Same as Rolled Throughput Yield (RTY)
14. 12/2/2003 Six Sigma Green Belt (Ref: The Six Sigma Way Team Fieldbook) 14 Measuring the Cost of Poor Quality (B3) Cost is connected to, but not the same as defect counts or sigma levels
Translate defect data into Cost of Poor Quality (COPQ)

Calculated baseline sigma level
Calculated final and/or first-pass yield for Y variable

16. 12/2/2003 Six Sigma Green Belt (Ref: The Six Sigma Way Team Fieldbook) 16 Long-Term vs. Short-Term Variation Short-term variation is less than long-term
Process shift adjustment of 1.5 sigma
Short-term capability: The best possible if process is centered
Long-term capability: Sustained reproducibility of the process
