A manager states that his process is really working well. Out of 1,500 parts, 1,477 were produced free of a particular defect and passed inspection. Based upon Six Sigma theory, how would you rate this performance, other things being equal?

Given Information:  

Total units = 1500

Defect free units = 1477

Required Information:  

six-sigma performance = ?

six-sigma performance:

DPU = 0.0153333

DMPU = 15333.33

Step-by-step explanation:

The six sigma is measure of quality enhancement in the organizations. There are six levels 1 to 6 where 1 represents lowest quality level and 6 represents highest quality level .

No. of defective units = total no. of units - defect free units

No. of defective units = 1500 - 1477

No. of defective units = 23

Defects per unit (DPU) is given by

DPU = No. of defective units/total no. of units

DPU = 23/1500

DPU = 0.0153333

DPU = 1.53 %

Defects per million units (DMPU) is given by

DMPU = DPU*1 million

DMPU = 0.0153333*1,000,000

DMPU = 15333.33

For six-sigma level DMPU must be equal or less than 3.4.

15333.33 is way more than 3.4 so the performance is not that great!
