Abstract: Abstract The Improve phase aims to identify ways to improve the outcomes of the process and system and minimize the variation throughout the system. In other words, the Improve phase aims for the identification and development of multiple alternatives for increasing performance and for selecting and implementing best alternative/s for improvement. The Six Sigma team focuses on specific changes that may have the desired impacts on the relevant processes by redesigning the process, eliminating NVA activities and wastes, and testing them using such methods as simulation, optimization, Design of Experiment (DOE), lean implementation, and Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA).
