What is DFSS?

DFSS stands for Design for Six Sigma. It's a methodology used to design or redesign products, services, or processes from the ground up, ensuring they meet customer needs and achieve Six Sigma levels of quality (i.e., near-perfect performance with very few defects). Common use cases include new product development, process innovation, and creating entirely new services to meet unmet customer needs. The approach focuses on preventing defects from occurring in the first place rather than fixing them after they appear.
