What is DMAIC? (Define Measure Analyze Improve Control)

DMAIC is the step-by-step method for developing Six Sigma projects and performance improvements:

  • Define the operational problem (e.g., too much delay, too many defects or too much variation)
  • Measure baseline KPIs (Key Performance Indicators)
  • Analyze the root causes of defects or deviation
  • Improve by implementing and validating countermeasures that eliminate root causes
  • Control performance to sustain the improvement
