Six Sigma for the Shop Floor: A Pocket Guide
Roderick A. Munro
Written specifically to be used daily by the workers on the shop floor, Six Sigma for the Shop Floor provides a very basic introduction to the Six Sigma process. By focusing on the problem solving nature of Six Sigma, author Roderick Munro explains how these principals should be used in conjunction with daily work. This convenient, pocket-sized book can be easily used on the shop floor, and clarifies the confusing “buzz” terms surrounding Six Sigma by explaining how to manage the tools currently being used to meet Six Sigma requirements. Six Sigma for the Shop Floor will explain the principles to the operators, and help map the problem-solving activities leading to Six Sigma projects.
