About iSixSigma
The mission of iSixSigma.com is to provide a free information resource to help business professionals successfully implement Quality within their organizations -- Quality that customers will truly feel and appreciate.

iSixSigma focuses on three primary areas: credible information, community, and supplemental services. We strive to create an environment that fosters open business-to-business communication, support between professionals and commerce between businesses. The resources available at iSixSigma will help your business understand and set Quality into place and, more importantly, into practice.

We are dedicated to assisting with your successful Six Sigma implementation and the associated customer benefits. As serious as we are about improving your customer's experience, we also think that Quality information can and should be engaging, exciting and entertaining.

About The iSixSigma Software/IT Industry Channel
iSixSigma serves 425,000 visitors each month. Collectively, the readership of iSixSigma views 7+ million pages of content on almost every subject relating to Six Sigma and Quality management. But we don't offer content on every subject. Not to worry: with the help of our Industry Channel partner, that will soon change.

Software and Information Technology (IT), for the purposes of this Industry Channel, includes all facets of Information Technology from software development to server maintenance to feature enhancement and project management.

We understand that your organization faces tough challenges, including concerns over development errors, project delays, workforce shortages, inefficient operations, and rising costs. Meeting these challenges and improving service quality will require a new knowledge base and access to relevant resources. It is our hope that this Industry Channel will assist Software and Information Technology professionals in finding and using these resources to create sustainable change.

iSixSigma Philosophy
iSixSigma is built on a foundation of honest and open communication between all of our participants. Our daily operations and guidelines for development are based on three basic values:

  • We believe the best information can be found on an open platform. For this reason, iSixSigma does not charge for information or resources.
  • We believe that if businesses actively share information, ideas and experiences, business professionals, such as yourself, and the Quality and management professions will benefit.
  • We recognize and respect the value that a qualified Six Sigma consultant can provide during implementation. We also recognize that there are many choices when it comes to consultant services and we believe businesses should be informed of all possibilities from an unbiased source.
iSixSigma is committed to these values and requests that site participants honor these values as well. Everyone benefits.

iSixSigma History
Envisioned in January and launched in May 2000, iSixSigma was created to meet the needs of business professionals around the world in search of proven methodologies for improving process efficiency, implementing data driven decision making and focusing on customer needs. iSixSigma LLC is an independent company, privately owned, funded and operated by CTQ Media LLC, and is a sister publication to Sourcingmag.com, the leading independent portal dedicated to IT and business process outsourcing, and BPM Enterprise, the leading independent portal dedicated to business process management.

We developed a site that offers comprehensive information, unique tools, checklists, calculators, in-depth editorial and personalized advice to help Quality and management professionals implement Six Sigma quickly and successfully within their organizations.

About The "I"
Many have asked about the "I" in "iSixSigma". The answer is multi-faceted:

  • The first is to answer the question, "Do you use Six Sigma?" You could answer, "Yes, I Six Sigma."
  • The second answer is that it stands for Internet, the publishing medium of iSixSigma.
  • And the third represents the Information about Six Sigma that can be found on iSixSigma.
