In Pursuit Of Quality

Companies that practice Six Sigma will want to keep an eye on Microsoft, which is preparing to release a set of Six Sigma products and services. Microsoft Accelerator for Six Sigma, which is expected to be available within several months, will include software that guides workgroups through the Six Sigma methodology for improving quality in the development of software and manufactured products. It also will automate management of multiple Six Sigma projects, while tracking their financial impact on a company.
