 Tyco Six Sigma Process Optimization Characteristics:
|
Bottom Line results Expected and Delivered |
 |
Six
Sigma initiatives are undertaken that will achieve results that significantly
improve performance of the business unit. These results are integrated
into the business plan and become integral to the local leadership's
success
|
|
Management Lead |
 |
The Six Sigma charge always starts at the top, and is evident with visible
leadership participation. Career success will closely parallel leadership
upward mobility
|
|
Customer and Process Focused |
 |
Six Sigma starts with an honest view of business performance from the
customer's standpoint, and ends with process changes that are truly
felt by the customer. "Growing with our Customers" transforms from
a saying to a reality
|
|
Data and Fact driven |
 |
Facts are considered prior to developing alternatives and opinions. Gone
are the days where management dictates from only an experience or
opinion basis
|
| |
Simple |
 |
Business is simple. Most Six Sigma initiatives will require knowledge of basic
Six Sigma steps, techniques, and data analysis. Deep statistical analysis
is the exception, not the rule.
|
| |
Logical |
 |
The process is based on logic and common sense. We are succeeding when
the teams feel that their efforts and recommendations make a lot of
sense.
|
|
Supports the leadership culture |
 |
Six Sigma does not stand alone, but instead enhances the Tyco Flow
Control's culture. Leadership growth is exponential under the Six
Sigma training and implementation environment |
