Construction and selection of six sigma sampling plan indexed through six sigma quality level

Six Sigma is a concept, a process, a measurement, a tool, a quality philosophy, a culture and a management strategy for the improvement in the system of an organization, which when applied reduces the number of defects to 3.4 or below per million opportunities. The main aim of Six Sigma is to reduce costs/wastages as much as possible and improve the quality of the product. Focusing on reduction of defects will result in enhanced quality with more efficiency and profit.

In this paper a procedure for the construction and selection of a Six Sigma Sampling Plan (SSSP) indexed through Six Sigma Quality Level (SSQL) with Single Sampling Plan as base plan is presented. Tables are constructed and presented for the easy selection of the plans.
