What Is a DMAIC Tool?
DMAIC stands for Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control. It is an integral part of Six Sigma and is used as a problem-solving strategy to facilitate process improvement projects.
How to Create a DMAIC Process with Creately?
- Identify and define the problem that is affecting your customers or company processes. Create a problem statement accordingly.
- Create a goal statement based on the problem statement while making sure that the needed resources, funds, and the team are available at hand.
- Create a SIPOC diagram in order to provide the team with a high-level overview of the process that is being analyzed. You can also use a value stream map to do this; or use a process map to obtain a more in-depth understanding of the process.
- Measure the extent of the problem by studying the current state of the process together with its owners.
- Next, identify the root causes of the problem. You can use a cause and effect diagram to identify and analyze the causes.
- Define the steps you need to take to mitigate the identified root causes. Brainstorm for proper solutions together with the team.
- Select the most practical solution using an impact effort matrix. Based on the solution you have selected, create new process maps that reflect the changes.
- Maintain the improvements you have gained by implementing the changes. Create a response plan that defines the steps that should be taken if there’s a drop in the efficiency of the process.
- Share the future-state map you have created with your stakeholders using the Creately Viewer. Any changes that you make to the map will be instantly reflected on the Viewer.
