PI6sigma 방법론을 통한 프로세스 혁신 사례 연구

A Case Study on R&D Process Innovation using PI6sigma Methodology

The corporate Research and Development has a primary role of new product development and its potential is the most crucial factor to estimate corporate future value. However, its systemic inadequacies and inefficiencies, the shorten product life-cycle to satisfy customer needs, the global operations by outsourcing strategy, and the reduction of product cost, are starting to expose to R&D business processes. The three-phased execution strategy for R&D innovation is introduced to establish master plan for new R&D model. From information technology point of view, PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) is one of the business total solutions in product development area. It is not a system, but the strategic business approaches that collaboratively manage the product from concept to end of life in all business areas. PLM functions and capabilities are usually pproached as references to re-design new R&D process. BPA (Business Process Assessment) and 5DP (Design Parameters) tool are introduced to establish R&D master plan and re-design process effectively. BPA tool that provided in PI6sigma from Samsung SDS consulting division is the methodology to extract business process issues objectively. Another principal tool provided in PI6sigma is the 5DP analysis for process re-design. This research provides a case study for R&D process innovation. How process assessment and PMM(Process Maturity Model) can be applied in business processes, and also it explains process re-design by 5DP method.
