Abstract Six Sigma is an organized & systematic method for strategic process improvement that relies on statistical & scientific methods to reduce the defect rates and achieve significant quality up- gradation. A case study is carried out for a logistical warehouse, where Six Sigma methodology is implemented for the defect reduction. The optimized parameters are considered to perform the practical run for the differential housing castings. Proposed techniques optimized control factors, resulting in superior quality and stability. This study aims to implement a novel approach to improve the quality (reducing the defects) of the warehouse by Six Sigma methodology on the selected projects.

1. Make a preliminary evaluation of the proposals as they now exist. Sampson should do this himself, based on the information now available, with any required assistance from engineering and operating personnel. 2. Conduct an economic analysis of each supplier’s proposed equipment, probably utilizing the life cycle costing approach.
1. What are the drivers of the RFID project? The drivers off the RFID project were to increase productivity, reduce cost which allows Boeing to process more efficient. Also by taking on the RFID project, it allows Boeing to better compete within the industry. They’re able to monitor and track the productivity within the supply chain allowing them to increase productivity in the sectors they feel necessary which leads them to processing more efficiently and effectively; which in results brings in more revenue to the company allowing them compete by investing more money not within the company but also within the future technology for the company.
Conducting a training needs assessment/identification process is the first step in creating a targeted training and development program within organization. Below are different ways of assessments that can be perform -ed to discover organization training needs. 1) Production Records: Production records of the organization is one of the source thru which we can identify training needs, based on previous records we can assess the training needs to fill the Knowledge, Skills & Attitudes gaps, if any. 2) Organizational assessment: It is used to uncover the competencies, knowledge and skills that are needed by the company to bridge any gaps.
