| CHAPEL HILL, N.C., March 30 /PRNewswire/ -- Quality as a defined
process and requirement emerged in the 1980s, before Six Sigma
controlled the quality tool kit in the 1990s. Since then, Six Sigma has
partnered with Lean and other productivity approaches to reduce waste
and ultimately improve the bottom line. However, quality leaders claim
these tools are dull after a decade of use, as seen by their diminished
ROI's.
