Quality Control with Six Sigma DMAIC and Grey Failure Mode Effect Anaysis (FMEA) : A Review

Currently, manufacturing industry competes in improving the quality of products produced, High demand leads to competition in similar manufacturing industries. Therefore, it becomes a challenge for companies to reduce product abnormality. Six sigma is a very early and potential ideology in this field. In production sector accross the world, six sigma is well known and its asset is being taken for improving capacity and character achievement and also to make the course sturdy to quality alteration. The effectiveness of Six Sigma is well supported by anecdotal evidence. However, academic research on Six Sigma is still in its early stage. The review of Six Sigma and Grey FMEA case studies that is achieved in modest scale corporation, service company and product construction is showed in this paper.
