Basem El-Haik, Raid Al-Aomar

Simulation-based Lean Six-Sigma and Design for Six-Sigma (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This is the first book to completely cover the whole body of knowledge of Six Sigma and Design for Six Sigma with Simulation Methods as outlined by the American Society for Quality. Both simulation and contemporary Six Sigma methods are explained in detail with practical examples that help understanding of the key features of the design methods. The systems approach to designing products and services as well as problem solving is integrated into the methods discussed.
