DMAIC Review & Final Reports
Delegates will become aware of DMAIC and DMADV models.
DMAIC is a cycle that depicts what happens following changes to a process. DMAIC stands for:
- Define - the process and problem
- Measure - the process' current performance
- Analyse - the process for issues and root cause
- Improve - determine and apply improvements
- Control - sustain the improvements
DMADV is the method used for development of existing products. DMADV refers to:
Define - the project purpose and problems, and customer requirements to outline project objectives
