Statisticians use the sigma symbol to

designate standard deviation

Standard Deviation

"A measure that is used to quantify the amount of variation or dispersion of a set of data values."

Standard Deviation Symbol

"Standard deviation in math formulas is represented by the Greek letter known as sigma"

Why Focus on Variation?

"reducing the variation stakeholders experience is the key to quality and continuous improvement" - ASQ

Quality - ISO 9000 - 2015

"the degree to which a set of inherent characteristics of an object fulfills requirements" "object" is too narrow! • service • information • thoughts!

Quality - English Oxford

"the standard of something as measured against other things of a similar kind; the degree of excellence of something"

Quality - ISO 8402 - 1986

"the totality of features and characteristics of a product or service that bears its ability to satisfy stated or implied needs"

Big Data

A massive volume of both structured and unstructured data that is so large it is difficult to process using traditional techniques. It can be analyzed computationally to reveal patterns, trends, and associations, especially relating to human behavior and interactions

Best Practices

A procedure demonstrated, by research and experience, to produce superior results and is suitable for widespread adoption as a standard. Consider what best practices could apply to current challenge. People don't know what they don't know.

Sales and Operations Planning (S&OP)

A process to strategically direct an organization to competitive advantage through effective management of demand and supply. "The ultimate Best Practice" Sales and Operations Planning: A process to develop tactical plans that provide management the ability to strategically direct its businesses to achieve competitive advantage on a continuous basis by integrating customer-focused marketing plans for new and existing products with the management of the supply chain. The process brings together all the plans for the business (sales, marketing, development, manufacturing, sourcing, and financial) into one integrated set of plans. It is performed at least once a month and is reviewed by management at an aggregate (product family) level. The process must reconcile all supply, demand, and new-product plans at both the detail and aggregate levels and tie to the business plan. It is the definitive statement of the company's plans for the near to intermediate term, covering a horizon sufficient to plan for resources and to support the annual business planning process. Executed properly, the sales and operation planning process links the strategic plans for the business with its execution and reviews performance measurements for continuous improvement. Bla bla bla. See: aggregate planning, production plan, production planning, sales plan, tactical planning.

Gantt Chart

Karol Adamiecki devised the first "Gantt" chart back in 1896. He was a Polish engineer turned management professor who came up with the idea of displaying processes visually to make it easier to see production schedules. Henry Gantt had the same idea, years later, in 1910. Gantt started planning visually with bar charts to allow supervisors in the steel works to see if production was on track or behind schedule. Gantt's name got attached to this way of planning, but it's generally recognized that Adamiecki had the idea first.

Median

The middle! Sort your numbers from smallest to largest and then pick the one in the middle. Often used for home prices.

Adjourning Stage

The project is coming to an end and team members are moving off in different directions. Some are making commitments to remain close and seek to cross paths on another project.

Learning Curve

The rate of improvement expressed in terms of the percent change in per unit average cost (time, materials, etc.) as a function of doubling output. For example, a 90% learning curve means that the per unit average cost falls to 90% of the previous cost as output doubles.
