Gary Gack, a Founder and Managing Partner of Six Sigma Advantage, explains the concepts of Six Sigma, and their application to business processes -- with a focus on software and IT. In interviews, Ken Edwards and Noah Hill of IDX Corporation describe how the software provider to hospitals and group practices is using Six Sigma to optimize development projects. Gack begins the program by defining Six Sigma, and showing how applying its principles drives bottom-line results. He explores the Six Sigma process roadmap, and then explains how the process is adapted for software and IT.

Gack concludes with some key considerations for getting started with Six Sigma. This revised version of one of WatchIT’s most requested programs has been updated with new multimedia resources, such as Web links and white papers.
