With so many variables and complexities, architecting, implementing and maintaining human capital management programs relies as much on strict quality control practices as the technology manufacturing sector that spawned the Six Sigma quality management practice.  Human capital solutions leader, Volt Consulting – Managed Service Programs announced today that greater than 40% of its employee base holds a Six Sigma belt.  Among executive leadership and employees, this includes Six Sigma Champions, Black Belts, Green Belts and Yellow Belts.  Scores of others are in training to achieve Six Sigma certification.

Six Sigma is a business management strategy originally developed by Motorola USA to improve the quality of process outputs by identifying and removing the causes of defects (errors), minimizing variability in manufacturing and business processes.  A six-sigma process is one in which 99.997% of the products manufactured are statistically expected to be free of defects (3.4 defects per 1 million).  For the solutions offered by Volt Consulting MSP this is reflected in dramatic reductions in process time, reductions in human and systemic errors, elimination of rework and improved accuracy of the procure-to-pay and invoicing processes.  Volt Consulting MSP has historically been a proponent of Six Sigma quality standards and its tenets are woven through all operations both internally and externally at amenable client programs. 

According to Volt Consulting MSP President, Larry Kaylor, a Six Sigma Champion himself, “The results of our efforts to ingrain Six Sigma processes in all our activities speak for themselves.  Numerous Volt Consulting MSP clients – Global 1000 organizations – report great improvements in their contingent workforce management processes and practices after having engaged the Business Process Improvement portion of their Volt Consulting MSP solution.”  The Six Sigma professionals of Volt Consulting MSP’s Quality department help clients implement Six Sigma and other quality management methodologies within their services procurement operations.
