English Abstract
This study has investigated whether Six Sigma is implemented in Jordan, and to evaluate the extent to which it has been implemented in the private organizations that have been awarded the "King Abdullah II Award for Excellence (KAAE)".
These organizations are the ideal population for this study due to the exceptional standards required in order to be awarded this Award, which is considered one of the most honored awards in Jordan.
105 questionnaires was distributed to the study population, 5 questionnaires have been distributed to each industrial / service organization has been awarded the (KAAE).
The questionnaire was divided into 3 schemes and two open-ended questions to achieve the study objectives by establishing the existence and /or the level of implementation of the Six Sigma in Jordan.
The Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) was used to test the questions.
The study found that there is a low implementation of Six Sigma (role structured (belts holders), structured improvement (DMAIC cycle), and focuses on metrics), leading, accordingly, to a low level of Six Sigma implementation in the population of study.
There are a selective implementation of some Six Sigma practices that overlap with other quality systems.
Such practices are similar in characteristics but are different in measurement methods.
The study recommends adopting the Six Sigma practices and systems as a strategy to maintain and increase the competitive advantage of the organization within globalization through establishing institutions that encourage adopting and publish the six sigma theme.
