Impact of Six Sigma in a developing economy: analysis on benefits drawn by Indian industries
Abstract: Overall operational
excellence is the key requirement of any business to have global competence and
sustained growth. Indian industries are not the exception to this. Six Sigma
has emerged as one of the most effective business improvement strategies world
wide. Nothing much has been published so
far illustrating an overall experience of Indian industries with Six Sigma.
This paper presents an analysis of the impact of Six Sigma on developing
economy like India. The paper provides
an insight into what kind of benefits Indian industries are gaining from Six
Sigma as a whole. The study further highlights similarity and differences of
benefit gained by different scales and sectors of Indian industries through Six
Sigma. This exhaustive analysis of the benefits drawn by Indian industries
through Six Sigma can assist other industries in India as well as those in
other developing countries, who have yet not experimented with Six Sigma, to
become more focused regarding their expectations from this improvement drive.
