Abstract

Six Sigma is a proven methodology originally developed to improve processes in manufacturing industries, but its principles have been successfully adapted and applied to the software industry. This paper explores the concept of Six Sigma, its principles, methodologies, tools, and its application in the software industry. We discuss how Six Sigma can help software companies improve product quality, reduce defects, and enhance operational efficiency. Additionally, we delve into the challenges of implementing Six Sigma in software development and suggest strategies to overcome them.
