You are a food specialist in a company that specializes inrefrigerated delicacies, and one of your brands requires beingmaintained at a temperature of 5°C. You determine averagewater activity (aw) at this temperature to be 0.2. One day, you are informed that the cooling systems onone of the delivery trucks carrying your company’s productsmalfunctioned while en route to its destination and it would notbe fixed until the next delivery. The driver has informed you thatthe temperature in the delivery bay of the truck is averaging55°C. You estimate a heat of sorption (Q) of 19 kJ/mol.

Whether in manufacturing or service industries, such projects quantify the effect of process changes on delays or rework. The goal of each successful Six Sigma project is to produce statistically significant improvements in the target process; over time, multiple Six Sigma projects produce virtually defect-free performance. The Six Sigma Black Belt project is one that uses appropriate tools within a Six Sigma approach to produce breakthrough performance and real financial benefit to an operating business or company. The tools are generic. It is the structure of the project and the associated process (improvement model) that distinguish a Black Belt project from other similar quality improvement…
