| 2003 Six Sigma Software and Services Directory
Welcome to Quality Digest's 
                      2003 Six Sigma Software and Services Directory. This month's 
                      issue is packed full of useful Six Sigma information. You've 
                      probably already seen our cover story, the Six Sigma Survey 
                      on page 24. Along with tables outlining the survey results, 
                      the article features several Six Sigma experts commenting 
                      on the state of Six Sigma today.   Six Sigma is one of the most popular methods of reducing 
                      defects to almost nonexistent levels. And, to meet growing 
                      demand, software companies and consultants have expanded 
                      their offerings to include Six Sigma products and services. 
                      We've compiled this directory to make it easier for companies 
                      interested in Six Sigma to find a product or service that's 
                      right for them.   This directory is divided into two sections: Six Sigma 
                      Software and Six Sigma Services. The Six Sigma Software 
                      guide lists more than 80 companies that have responded to 
                      our requests for information and told us they supply Six 
                      Sigma software. The second section, Six Sigma Services, 
                      lists 150-plus companies that offer training, consulting, 
                      implementation services, and Black Belt and Green Belt certification. 
                      Companies that offer both software and services are listed 
                      in both directories.   Each entry includes the company's contact information 
                      and a brief description of its offerings. Please note that 
                      not all companies provided a company description, and not 
                      all companies we contacted responded.   Also note that this directory, along with all of Quality 
                      Digest's buyers guides, can be found online at www.qualitydigest.com/directories. 
                      As with all of our guides, the products and services listed 
                      here have neither been evaluated nor endorsed by Quality 
                      Digest. We suggest you contact the companies directly to 
                      learn the full spectrum of what they can do for you. Happy 
                      hunting!
