List of Six Sigma software packages

There are generally four classes of software used to support the Six Sigma process improvement protocol:

  • Analysis tools, which are used to perform statistical or process analysis;
  • Program management tools, used to manage and track a corporation's entire Six Sigma program;
  • DMAIC and Lean online project collaboration tools for local and global teams;
  • Data Collection tools that feed information directly into the analysis tools and significantly reduce the time spent gathering data.
