Implementation Barriers for Six Sigma in Construction

Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENGINEERING TRENDS AND TECHNOLOGY - Year 2013, Vol 4, Issue 2

Abstract

 Standardization of process is the main necessity of any organization to have competence and continualdevelopment. Indian construction industries are not the exclusion to this. Six Sigma has emerged as one of the most valuable business enhancement strategies worldwide specifically in manufacturing industries. Nothing much has been published so far discloses an overall implementation of Indian construction industries with Six Sigma. This paper presents an investigation of the various barriers for implementing Six Sigma in developing countries like India. Based on discussions and debate with various segments of society, it provides an approaching about their perceptions as well as their misconceptions about this quality concept and the challenges, which organizations face while trying to execute Six Sigma. Diverse public and private sector organizations are analyze for this reason, similarly, the part of developing countries are also discussed alongside to further enrich this paper. This complete study of the barriers drawn by Indian construction industries through Six Sigma can help out other developing countries, who have yet not experimented with Six Sigma.
