MOOC - Lean Six Sigma Black Belt

Level IV – Creating Capable Processes

The Unit \'Creating Capable Processes\' focuses on reducing variation in a stable process with the objective to create a process capable of meeting customer requirements. This Unit reviews the application of Six Sigma and statistical tools used to assure a valid and reliable performance measurement system, to collect data and to analyze the performance of processes. Six Sigma focuses on quality breakthrough improvement projects. All Level IV Learning Elements and Performance Criteria follow the DMAIC structure.


Design of Experiments:

The Learning Element ‘Design of Experiments’ reviews efficient ways of experimenting. Design of Experiments examines the influence of factors and interactions on a process.

LSSBB.U7.E8.PC1
Design experiments by determining the objective, selecting factors, responses and measurement methods. Apply DOE elements: responses, factors, levels, transfer function, run order, randomization, balanced designs, residual error, main effects, interaction effects, replicates, repetitions, curvature and centerpoints. Bloom: Analyze
LSSBB.U7.E8.PC2
Design and analyze full factorial experiments. Understand and apply contrast, covariate, blocking. Bloom: Analyze
LSSBB.U7.E8.PC3
Design and analyze fractional factorial experiments and describe how confounding affects their use. Understand and apply alias tables and folding. Bloom: Analyze
LSSBB.U7.E8.PC4
Design and analyze Response Surface Models (RSM) such as Box Behnken and Central Composite Designs. Analyze the response surface using path of steepest ascent and apply Evolutionary Operations (EVOP). Bloom: Analyze
