Purpose: This study proposes the application of Six Sigma management innovation method for more systematically enhanced execution of Quality by Design (QbD) activities. QbD requires a deeper understanding of the product and process at the design and development stage of the drug, and it is very important to ensure that no fault is fundamentally generated through thorough process control. Methods: Analyzing the background and specific procedures of quality improvement based on the drug design basis, and analyzing the key contents of each step, we have differentated and common points from the 6 Sigma methodology. We propose a new model of Six Sigma management innovation method suitable for pharmaceutical industry. Results: Regulatory agencies are demanding results from statistical analysis as a scientific basis in developing medicines to treat human life through quality improvement activities based on drug design. By utilizing the education system to improve the statistical analysis capacity in the Six Sigma activities and operating the 6 Sigma Belt system in conjunction, it helped systematically strengthen the execution power of quality improvement activities based on pharmaceutical design based on the members of the pharmaceutical industry. Conclusion: By using QbD Six Sigma, which combines quality enhancement based on pharmaceutical design basis and Six Sigma methodology suitable for pharmaceutical industry, it is possible to obtain satisfactory results both by pharmaceutical companies and regulators by using appropriate statistical analysis methods for preparing scientific evidence data required by regulatory.

Purpose: In this paper, we investigate whether the endeavors for 6 sigma quality management by a firm have positive effects on its financial performance and the length of 6 sigma implemented period affects its financial status. Methods: We conduct the analysis using the data from Workplace Panel Survey 2009. We use multiple linear regression in order to analyze the relationship between the efforts for quality management and financial performance. Specifically, the return on assets (ROA) and return on equity (ROE) are investigated as dependent variables and the efforts for quality management as independent variable. The Box-Cox transformation and Cook's distance are also used. Results: As a result of the analysis, the indication is that companies that put effect into the six sigma quality management have a positive result in its financial status. In detail, the efforts for six sigma quality management have positive effects on total asset turnover ratio and six sigma implemented period on net income to net sales ratio. Additionally, companies with longer(shorter) period of six sigma program have more (less) improvement in its financial status. Conclusion: It can be concluded that the company's efforts for quality management positively influence financial performance.

Due to a low stiffness of cranktrain and a failure experience from a history within short development time, a viscous torsional vibration damper was applied in order to reduce the torsional vibration and keep the high reliability for the durability of cranktrain system in the direct injection diesel engine. As an improvement of the crankshaft stiffness by increasing the diameter of main and pin journal, a rubber type damper could be considered. In this study, the control factors of rubber damper, the moment of inertia ring, stiffness of damper and damping coefficient of ring, were investigated by DFSS method through the analysis work and the measurement in the real engine condition.

This study conducts an empirical analysis of how the suggestion activity, most widely used in quality control activities, interacts with the dimensions of learning organizations. The study also attempts to analyze the results of Six Sigma based on sub-dimensions of learning organizations, which are infrastructure, culture and system. In order for learning and innovation to take place in implementing a Six Sigma program, the organizational infrastructure and culture are created and sustained and then, a learning organization system would become effective. In this study, a empirical model is used to demonstrate such an association. The sample consists of 134 organizations who have implemented a Six Sigma program for more than three years. Using the version 16.0 of AMOS for structural equation modeling, the study estimates the structural equation model that has a Six Sigma organization's infrastructure, culture and system as independent constructs, the suggestion system as a mediator, and the performance of Six Sigma projects as a dependent construct.

This study developed a new model for evaluating effects about the success of six sigma activities. This model consists of four constructs such as success of six sigma, employee's success experience, customer satisfaction, and business performance. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) is used to analyze causality among the four constructs. Hypothesis were tested through a field study conducted for one hundred and thirty-one project leaders, who were asked to evaluate their experiences of six sigma projects. The results indicate that six hypothesis are statistically significant. As a result, the success of six sigma doesn't influence the customer satisfaction directly, but it influences customer satisfaction indirectly through employee's success experience. We find out that control for employee's success experience is important as well as success of six sigma in business innovation. Otherwise business performance is influenced directly by success of six sigma, that is business performance isn't influenced directly by employee's success experience but influenced indirectly through customer satisfaction. This study found that the change management raising employee's success experience is important in Six Sigma.

Since the six sigma strategy was first introduced to Korean enterprises in 1997, it has been taken as an important business strategy to strengthen the competitiveness of major Korean companies under the global competitive environment. These major companies also demand their suppliers to implement six sigma. But small and medium sized companies have several barriers to overcome for successful implementation of six sigma. First, the financial status is not so sound to support initial expenses for launching six sigma. Second, physical and human resources are not sufficient for driving six sigma. And finally, the infrastructure is not well established to manage and support the six sigma program. In this paper, we suggest a method to overcome these barriers and propose a model for establishing six sigma in a small and medium sized company. We also provide some practical case studies.

Purpose: Most enterprises adopt six sigma acts to maximize the business performance with raising the executiveness for the project improvements in each parts. But there are little studies about six sigma actual operations in manufacturing whether the six sigma improvements that have injected a lot of budget, efforts, labours and time are run properly. Methods: This study select 31 interviewees who have MBB or BB from 5 large enterprises running six sigma over 10 years and 5 SMEs running six sigma over 5 years to understand and review the operational status of six sigma actions in manufacturing industry and to secure representativeness. This study identify the operational status of six sigma actions and key factors enhancing or impeding execution of six sigma projects through face-to-face interviews and online surveys by e-mail. Results: This study figured out the operational status of six sigma actions and key factors enhancing or impeding execution of six sigma projects. We used SPSS 16.0 for the reliability and the validity of survey data. Conclusion: There can be a lot of different factors that affect six sigma project improvements besides the key factors from this study. More study need to think of the organization characteristics and the basic conditions and to remedy the unreasonable points and defects rather than following foreign companies and enterprises.

This paper is concerned with a six sigma green belt training program. Comparative studies of existing training programs for three major companies (Samsung Electronics Company, Hyundai Motor Company, and LG Chemical Ltd.) and two consulting firms (Korean Standards Association and Korea Management Association) are performed. Based on the comparative studies, a cyber green belt training program is developed. The training program, which is composed of 34 modules, follows a disciplined process of five macro phases: define, measure, analyze, improve, and control (DMAIC). This cyber training program is serviced in the homepage http://ise.chonbuk.ac.kr/∼sixsigma. It has been utilized as one semester subject of "Six Sigma Quality Management" in the department of industrial engineering. The advantage and disadvantage of this cyber training program are also discussed.
