Reseña del editor

Many of the Six Sigma methods successfully used in manufacturing are now being utilised in the transactional and service sectors

However, business-specific issues such as customer billing, order processing, and call center management require a modified set of problem-solving and analytical tools.

This resource addresses those differences and provides a roadmap for implementing "customer-centric" Six Sigma.

After achieving Six Sigma improvements in manufacturing and design comes an equally complex challenge: implementing Six Sigma in a business's transactional and service sectors.

Different tools, terminology, frameworks, and measurements will clearly be needed -- this is why leading Six Sigma and service operations experts prepared this detail-rich roadmap. Six Sigma for Transactions and Services provides the step-by-step guidance needed to transform these costly, crucial -- and far too often highly inefficient -- business processes.

This guide shows exactly how to design and optimize procedures and performance in areas traditionally resistant to both investigation and change. Readers will find the tools they need to:

• Develop quantitative assessments in hard-to-measure areas
• Apply process thinking in service context
• Apply new tools to find wasteful processes ripe for elimination
• Develop customer-driven transactional processes
• Build robustness into every aspect of the service package
• Optimize the company's transactional design
• Exceed customers expectations at reduced cost
• Document cost reductions, efficiency improvements, and customer satisfaction

Six Sigma for Transactions and Service offers exciting new opportunities to those looking to optimize every aspect of a business. This guide is exactly the right tool for building better performance into these critical customer-contact areas -- which will eventually translate into an improved bottom line, increased customer satisfaction, and greater over-all efficiency.
