1 ENGM 620: Quality Management 26 November 2012 Six Sigma

2 Problem Solving Quiz I am a good problem solver because: A.My organization has no problems, so I must be good at solving them. B.I solve the same problems every day. C.I find the root cause and solve a problem once.

3 Problem Solving Quiz The people who work for me must be good problem solvers because: A.I hear about no problems, so they must solve the problems. B.They tell me they have no time for other things because they spend all their time solving problems. C.Every member of my organization is trained in root- cause problem solving techniques.

4 Fixing the symptoms, not the root cause!

6 Six Sigma The purpose of Six Sigma is to reduce variation to achieve very small standard deviations so that almost all of your products or services meet or exceed customer requirements.

7 Reducing Variation 6080100120140 60140 60 Lower Spec Limit Upper Spec Limit

8 Accuracy vs. Precision Accuracy - closeness of agreement between an observed value and a standard Precision - closeness of agreement between randomly selected individual measurements

9 Six Ingredients of Six Sigma 1.Genuine focus on the customer 2.Data- and fact- driven management 3.Process focus, management, and improvement 4.Proactive management 5.Boundaryless collaboration 6.Drive for perfection, tolerate failure

10 Key People in Six Sigma Champion –Work with black belts to identify possible projects Master Black Belts –Work with and train new black belts Black Belts –Committed full time to completing cost-reduction projects Green Belts –Trained in basic quality tools

11 Six Sigma Problem Solving Process Define the opportunity Measure process performance Analyze data and investigate causes Improve the process Control and process management

12 Define Four Phases (according to your text) –Develop the business case –Project evaluation –Pareto analysis –Project definition Project Charter

13 Some of the tools to “Define” Project Desirability Matrix Problem/objective statement Primary/secondary metric Change Management Process Map –SIPOC, Flow chart, Value Stream, etc. QFD Houses

14 Project Assessment Return Risk DogsLow Hanging Fruit Stars???

16 Measure Two major steps: –Select process outcomes –Verifying measurements

17 Some of the tools to “Measure” Magnificent 7 Basic Statistics FMEA Time Series analysis Process capability

18 Analyze Three major steps: –Define your performance objectives –Identify independent variables –Analyze sources of variability –Results of this step are potential improvements

19 Some of the tools to “Analyze” Graphic data analysis Confidence intervals Hypothesis tests Regression/correlation Process modeling / simulation

20 Improve Try your potential solutions –Off-line experiments –Pilot lines Assure true improvement

21 Some of the tools to “Improve” Hypothesis tests Multi-variable regression Taguchi methods Design of experiments

22 Exercise: Anti-Solution Objective: How do we best speed purchase order preparation? Anti-Objective: How do we slow purchase order preparation down to a crawl? Brainstorm the anti-objective Examine each anti-objective for a positive idea Record and add to the positive ideas

23 Control Sustain the improvements Manage the process

24 Some of the tools to “Control” Implementation –Mistake proofing –Visible enterprise Control Plan –Documentation –Training Control Charts Process Management Chart

25 Taguchi Methods The reduction of variability in processes and products Equivalent definition: The reduction of waste Waste is any activity for which the customer will not pay

26 Traditional Loss Function x LSLUSL T T LSL USL

27 Example (Sony, 1979) Comparing cost of two Sony television plants in Japan and San Diego. All units in San Diego fell within specifications. Japanese plant had units outside of specifications. Loss per unit (Japan) = $0.44 Loss per unit (San Diego) = $1.33 How can this be? Sullivan, “Reducing Variability: A New Approach to Quality,” Quality Progress, 17, no.7, 15-21, 1984.

28 Example x T U.S. Plant (  2 = 8.33) Japanese Plant (  2 = 2.78) LSLUSL

29 Taguchi Loss Function x T x T

30 T L(x) x k(x - T) 2 L(x) = k(x - T) 2

31 Estimating Loss Function Suppose we desire to make pistons with diameter D = 10 cm. Too big and they create too much friction. Too little and the engine will have lower gas mileage. Suppose tolerances are set at D = 10 +.05 cm. Studies show that if D > 10.05, the engine will likely fail during the warranty period. Average cost of a warranty repair is $400.

32 Estimating Loss Function 10 L(x) 10.05 400 400 = k(10.05 - 10.00) 2 = k(.0025)

33 Estimating Loss Function 10 L(x) 10.05 400 400 = k(10.05 - 10.00) 2 = k(.0025) k= 160,000

34 Example 2 Suppose we have a 1 year warranty to a watch. Suppose also that the life of the watch is exponentially distributed with a mean of 1.5 years. The warranty costs to replace the watch if it fails within one year is $25. Estimate the loss function.

35 Example 2 1.5 L(x) 25 1 f(x) 25= k(1 - 1.5) 2 k= 100

36 Example 2 1.5 L(x) 25 1 f(x) 25= k(1 - 1.5) 2 k= 100

37 Single Sided Loss Functions Smaller is better L(x) = kx 2 Larger is better L(x) = k(1/x 2 )

38 Example 2 L(x) 25 1 f(x)

39 Example 2 L(x) 25 1 f(x) 25= k(1) 2 k= 25

45 Recall, X f(x) with finite mean  and variance  2. E[L(x)]= E[ k(x - T) 2 ] = k E[ x 2 - 2xT + T 2 ] = k E[ x 2 - 2xT + T 2 - 2x  +  2 + 2x  -  2 ] = k E[ (x 2 - 2x  +  2 ) -  2 + 2x  - 2xT + T 2 ] = k { E[ (x -  ) 2 ] + E[ -  2 + 2x  - 2xT + T 2 ] }

46 Expected Loss E[L(x)]= k { E[ (x -  ) 2 ] + E[ -  2 + 2x  - 2xT + T 2 ] } Recall, Expectation is a linear operator and E[ (x -  ) 2 ] =  2 E[L(x)]= k {  2 - E[  2 ] + E[ 2x  - E[ 2xT ] + E[ T 2 ] }

47 Expected Loss Recall, E[ax +b] = aE[x] + b = a  + b E[L(x)]= k {  2 -  2 + 2  E[ x  - 2T E[ x ] + T 2 } =k {  2 -  2 + 2  2 - 2T  + T 2 }

48 Expected Loss Recall, E[ax +b] = aE[x] + b = a  + b E[L(x)]= k {  2 -  2 + 2  E[ x  - 2T E[ x ] + T 2 } =k {  2 -  2 + 2  2 - 2T  + T 2 } =k {  2 + (  - T) 2 }

49 Expected Loss Recall, E[ax +b] = aE[x] + b = a  + b E[L(x)]= k {  2 -  2 + 2  E[ x  - 2T E[ x ] + T 2 } =k {  2 -  2 + 2  2 - 2T  + T 2 } =k {  2 + (  - T) 2 } = k {  2 + ( x - T) 2 } = k (  2 +D 2 )

50 Since for our piston example, x = T, D 2 = (x - T) 2 = 0 L(x) = k  2 Example

51 Example (Piston Diam.)

52 Example (Sony) x T U.S. Plant (  2 = 8.33) Japanese Plant (  2 = 2.78) LSLUSL E[L US (x)]= 0.16 * 8.33 = $1.33 E[L J (x)] = 0.16 * 2.78 = $0.44

53 Tolerance (Pistons) 10 L(x) 10.05 400 400 = k(10.05 - 10.00) 2 = k(.0025) k= 160,000 Recall,
