Six sigma is about systematically improving the quality of process outputs. It accomplishes this goal by identifying and removing the causes of defects and minimizing variability in manufacturing and business processes.

There are generally three classes of software used to support Six Sigma: Analysis tools, which are used to perform statistical or process analysis Program management tools, used to manage and track a corporation's entire Six Sigma program DMAIC and Lean online project collaboration tools for local and global teams These software applications help those who implement six sigma initiatives to track, manage and visualize the progress made in six sigma efforts. The software helps track project methodologies such as DMAIC and DMADV – (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control and Define, Measure, Analyze, Design and Verify).
