Abstract

In the present scenario, the Six Sigma tools and techniques are used by various manufacturing industries, exporting industries and even service organizations.It focuses on improving the quality of the products, cutting down the extra costs, reducing the variations and satisfying the customers.This case study follows the Six Sigma tools called DMAIC methodology to identify and analyze various root causes of the capacitors rejection problems, which influence the performance of the company and suggests solutions to counter with it.The issue not only causes financial loss to the company but also hinders future growth in form of customer dissatisfaction.The results of the implementation indicate significant improvement in the quality of the product and cost reduction.
