    The likelihood of meeting on time delivery expectation for electronic manufacturer is demonstrated as the productivity's result. It depicts that adequate item is accessible for delivery, permitting the variability in yield, and the likelihood that the item will be sent in the submitted time frame, taking into consideration process duration change. Numerous service firms use delivery time assurances to go after clients in the commercial focus. This study reports the application of a 6σ project on the improvements of Company X products on time delivery. The methodology adopted in this study is the Define Measure Analyse Improve Control (DMAIC) technique of 6σ. This method is adopted as Six Sigma gives a viable instrument to concentrate on customer prerequisites, through improvements of process quality. Six Sigma projects are performed with the goal of improving on time delivery, in- process quality and product quality. This study describes the application of the Six Sigma methodology, focusing the five phases - Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control, by taking the example of a project, and demonstrates the benefits attained.

    Lean and Six Sigma are recent developments in continuous improvement methodology that have been popularized by several companies. The success and complementary nature of these methodologies has led to their combination into a single methodology, commonly called Lean Six Sigma. It is a key driver in enhancing the continuous improvement opportunity in various industries. Thus, this study aims to explore the Lean Six Sigma approach implementation in small, medium and large scale firms in detail, and apply the DMAIC concept in the recipe recovery and backup project. DMAIC stands for Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control. Besides, the knowledge of the study will not limit to Lean Six Sigma analysis and literature analysis in the past. Thus, the findings will assist the subsequence case studies and idea to further improve on other industry process. Besides, it will seize great improvement opportunity in improving the efficiency of the existing process in any fields. Therefore, an analysis was constructed in assisting scholars and practitioners to better understand the concept and the influence of this approach. It helps to eliminate the existing impact of high configuration time and establish an excellent operational process in manufacturing. By applying the Lean Six Sigma methodology, it is targeted to achieve MTTR < 30 minutes after the implementation of centralized recipe backup solution. It is recommendation to use Lean Six Sigma methodology in various industries for continuous improvement such as in cost and quality.
