Design for Six Sigma (DFSS) is a powerful problem solving methodology aimed at tackling core product development issues. If you are in a role of developing new products from an R&D perspective, you will benefit from learning the tools and methods this course will teach you for foreseeing and eliminating potential defects before and during the design process. This five-day program delivers a thorough education on DFSS's DMADV (Define-Measure-Analyze-Design-Verify) methodology and is designed to help business professionals master a variety of techniques to enhance the design process.

DFSS is built around the idea that design is a truly cross functional undertaking rather than simple the sole responsibility of a product designer. While statistical design tools are integral to this course, you will also learn about VOC (Voice of the Customer), financial analysis and supplier selection.

Choose a manufacturing or transactional focused class to meet your needs. This is a five day course.
