Champion Model
The Champion is a leader that supports the process as a client advocate. Although the
Champion may not have all the qualitative skills or certifications, they understand the theory
of Six Sigma management and it’s importance to the customer experience.
5. • Baselines an
understanding of the
“Current Customer”
experience
• Leverages a 3-dimensional
model to illustrate customer
satisfaction against four
attributes:
• Basic- Performance-
Attractive-Indifferent
• Measures the customer’s
perception of specific
service attributes for
importance and satisfaction
• Unmistakably integrates
the “Voice of the Customer”
data into MBF’s service
model

The results are visible in our dashboard metrics
• 5 Why Analysis is used to identify the
true root cause of the defect. This is
completed through an in depth and
inquisitive approach to an investigation,
leading the symptoms to the actual root
of the problem.
• An FMEA, or Failure Mode Effects
Analysis, is used to proactively identify
failure points in a process and the
effectiveness of the controls that are in
place.
• The KANO analysis is grouped with
these tools to capture the VOC data on
the overall customer experience.
• Capture all relevant quality
defects in our centralized data
base system EtQ (Excellence
Through Quality). Each quality
incident (internal and external)
are captured for remediation
and metrics review.
• Workflow Mapping is the creation
of the current road map of any
process. This illustrates change
in control, manual controls and
critical decisions that must occur.
• Adelta T is a Value Added
Process tool that defines value to
non value added steps. Works in
conjunction with a well defined
workflow map.
• Demonstrate control with consistent
review of progress over time. The MBF
represents a long term approach to
control within a process.

Some rules of thumb:
3-Sigma performance is considered the minimum for any industrial process.
Typical performance of business and industry processes is considered to be around 4-Sigma.
The first goal of a Six Sigma project in business and industry is usually to improve from 4-Sigma to 5-Sigma. MBF embarked on that journey in 2011 with our MBF Process.
Some processes never reach 6-Sigma. But reaching 5-Sigma may be good enough.
In some cases, the process can be reengineered to achieve 6-Sigma performance or higher.
