Opening Process

Purpose This study aims to expand the current knowledge of the Six Sigma approach in a period of time when there is little direct evidence of the need to improve the credit card account opening process. This is an important but neglected area of focus in the Six Sigma literature. This study explores the extent to which process improvement practices are extended to the credit card department. Design/methodology/approach A case study methodology is adopted in this study to facilitate an exploration of the implemented Six Sigma approach in the credit card department of a leading commercial bank. The process improvement tool used is the define, measure, analyze, improve and control (DMAIC) cycle. Findings The study’s results confirm that the Six Sigma approach improves the quality of the credit card account opening process. So, the Six Sigma approach can account for a reduced number of keying-in errors, resulting in better data accuracy and improved customer satisfaction. Research limitations/implications The authors, in an attempt to render the study results more feasible for data collection, have chosen to focus on the process of the new accounts unit of the credit card department. Therefore, the authors have not taken into account the other units (e.g. transaction processing) of the same department. Practical implications The results of this study will be useful in persuading bank management to evaluate and implement the Six Sigma approach. Hence, this research will assist bank managers with replies to questions, such as: “What impact will Six Sigma have on process-centric improvement, such as the new accounts opening process of a credit card department?” Originality/value Within the literature on the Six Sigma practice, there is little research that focuses on the implementation of this particular toolset especially for credit card departments. This indicates a gap in the field. A new contribution to bridging that gap comes from the analysis of the results for the Six Sigma concept, which addresses the new accounts opening process.

Six Sigma Approach

Abstract The efficient creation of 3D CAD platforms can be achieved by the optimization of their design process. The research presented in this article showcases a method for allowing such efficiency improvement. The method is based on the DMADV six sigma approach. During the Define step, the definition of the scope and design space is established. In the Measure step, the initial evaluation of the platforms to be improved is done with the help of a Metrics framework for 3D CAD platforms. The Analyze Step includes the identification and optimization of the systems’ model of the process based on the architecture and the multiple objectives required for the improvement. The optimization method used that is based on evolutionary algorithms allows for the identification of the best improvement alternatives for the next step. During Design step of the method, the improvement alternatives are planned and executed. In the final Verification step, the evaluation of the improved process is tested against the previous status with the help of the Metrics Framework for 3D CAD platforms. The method is explained with an example case of a 3D CAD platform for creating metallic boxes for electric machinery.

Six Sigma Approach

This research focused on defects reduction in spheroidal graphite iron casting process of a jackscrew manufacturer in which graphite nodularity was lower than a given specification (75%). This situation could lead to serious issues and accident to end-users. The Six Sigma approach of DMAIC was employed to identify and eliminate the problems. The result obtained after implementing the Six Sigma showed that the process capability was improved from-0.47 to 2.04, and the average per cent graphite nodularity was increased significantly from 61.49% to 86.43%.

Effective Service

Human resource (HR) is the backbone of an organization and hence, there is need to build its underlying capabilities for effective service delivery. Six Sigma aims at improving the effectiveness of processes by collecting data and then using advanced statistical analysis tools to solve the problems. Six Sigma deployment in HR provides consistency in operations and leads to quality excellence by providing better services at lower costs. Six Sigma approach adds more science to the art of HR, which is used to measuring outcomes it can control, rather than those it can influence. Six Sigma deployment in HR transforms typical HR practices with a proactive approach and leads to better, faster and more cost-effective services; improve internal customer satisfaction and greater motivation and job satisfaction of employees. The research develops various framework for Six Sigma deployment in HR and provides case studies of successful Six Sigma deployment in various areas of HR.
