Dear Hemant,
The areas suggested by you where one can take six sigma projects in software development are really useful and would result in huge benefits , if done properly.
However, you would appreciate, that in a software development organization ( specially in a large one) , the support functions are as important as the main core function. By support function, I mean recruitment, administration, training etc. There are normally opportunities for improvement in these functions and processes , which will also add big benefits to the bottom-line.
It seems that you have good experience in implementing six sigma in software industry. Could you share some insights in implementing six sigma in support processes ? Is there any benchmark data on sigma level on which these support processes ( and/or sub-processes under the umbrella of these broad function) actually work across the software industry.
Thank you,
ASOK
