PRESS RELEASE Of interest to editors and journalists covering: Business/Consulting, Software, Programming, IT/Datacom, NM Business News Six Sigma Consultants, Inc. And SigmaFlow Design Integrated Client Solution Albuquerque, NM - Nov. 18, 2003 /Send2Press Newswire/ -- Six Sigma Consultants, Inc. (SSC) (www.sixsigmaco.com) announces its new strategic partnership with SigmaFlow, providing clients with an integrated software solution to enhance Six Sigma training, increase productivity and sustain project results. Traditionally, Six Sigma practitioners have had to use multiple measurement tools to evaluate projects -- a fragmentation that impeded project momentum and sustainability. The SSC/SigmaFlow solution combines training and functionality in a streamlined, user-friendly resource, tying all the tools together. The SSC/SigmaFlow collaboration supports projects throughout the Design, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control phases (DMAIC). It provides connectivity of the vital few factors in each-increasing training adoption and retention rates while improving cycle times and sustainability. Its connectivity eliminates tedious administrative tasks, reconciles disparate tools, simplifies project review, improves clarity and saves time. As Greg Brue, SSC president and CEO comments, "This software tool is long overdue and a major productivity enhancement for the Six Sigma community. We conservatively estimate client resource savings of up to 25% per project in the time value of project savings and time to solve the defect problem -- it's an excellent enhancement in the knowledge transfer process for the classroom." Companies can leverage dramatic timesaving and process optimization with this integrated approach-aligning project objectives with one-stop-shop connectivity.
