    The Lexus Power Plant aims to establish quality standards to minimize production costs by reducing defects. There are two approaches considered: Six Sigma and DMAIC. Six Sigma is a comprehensive strategy that can classify characteristics by importance and determine tolerances. This could help lower manufacturing costs by focusing on problems. However, it may be disadvantageous to change existing designs or procedures. DMAIC can monitor processes, assess risks, and collect data to evaluate performance. It enhances design processes but may not prioritize customer demands. Based on the power plant's objective, Six Sigma is recommended as it is a precise strategy using a quality benchmark to reduce errors by 3.4% per million items, achieving 99.9% perfection to establish quality standards

    P-M-I CHART

    Instruction: Read and analyse the case study below. Write you answer on the spaces provided.

     In the Interesting box, write down how each approach would contribute in achieving the objective
    of the power plant. In the My Decision box, write down your recommendation on how Lexus Power
    Plant will achieve their main objective using one (1) between the two (2) approaches being
    compared.

    Case Study: Electrical Manufacturing Company Lexus Power Plant is a large electrical manufacturer based
    in northern part of India. The company employs around 12,000 people and is one of India’s leading public
    sector companies. The company manufactures large turbines, transformers, etc. which are used in power
    stations for their clients that are based in India and abroad. The main objective of the power plant is to
    establish quality standards that ensures lower rate of defects in order to minimize the production expenses of
    the company.

    in order to cut company’s manufacturing expenses.

    My Decision
    The primary purpose of the power plant is to set quality standards that assure a lower incidence of errors, hence
    lowering the company’s production costs. I urge that Lexus Power Plant use the Six Sigma technique, according
    to management 9 Operations management. Six sigma is a quality benchmark that reduces mistakes by 3.4 percent
    per million items. This equates to a 99.9 percent perfection rate, demonstrating the Lexus power plant was
    necessary to set quality standards and remove defects. Six sigma is a typical quality benchmark for many, if not
    all, key competitors in today’s competitive global economy.
