Six Sigma or GE model
People might say that the two leading companies Motorola and General Electric have nothing in common between them.

Hence as a result both the two companies Motorola and General Electric use a common system which is commonly called as Six Sigma.
The Six Sigma was invented by the Motorola in 1986. The Motorola describes the Six Sigma as a method of improving the quality and detecting the defects. Since then, there is a robust improvement in the business sector. This improvement lays its focus on the requirements of the customer, alignment of the process, and executing the project on time.
Many important key concepts are included in the Six Sigma GE. These concepts include quality of the project, capability of the process, variation, defect and other operational delays and errors. The quality, defect, and the capabilities of the process are the most important concepts. These three concepts help in building the rest of Six Sigma.
The key factor of this approach is the customer satisfaction. It is also ensured that the quality of the products or services should be perfect. There is no compromises done on the quality of the product and the product is meant to be made and delivered on time. Also the defects are required to be minimized or removed completely. Six Sigma aims at reducing the variation in the finished product, to improve the capability of the process, and to have process, that is capable enough to produce high level quality products consistently. According to the General Electric the main idea of Six Sigma is to measure the no of defects in a process, and to eliminate these defects.
