    I have been looking for the formula that derives the Sigma value from parts per million defective. I have found plenty of tables and of course there is the Sigma Calculator on this site. But what I am looking for is the formula that produces those values.

    Hi
    Is this the xls formula you are looking for?  Or do you really want the DPMO formula?
    Hope this helps – Cheers Justin
