Implementation of Six Sigma with ISO in the Indian textile industry for improvement in performance

This paper discusses the implementation of quality management systems (Six Sigma) along with ISO in the textile industry of India. The literature indicates that Indian companies are falling far behind in comparison to their international competitors in the area of competitiveness like timely delivery, consistency, reliability, innovation and quality. Adoption of quality management systems with ISO can help the organisations to improve competitiveness and performance. In this study data is collected from twenty six textile companies which are member of The Textile Association India (TAI), located in Solapur district, Maharashtra. The findings indicate that only ISO 9000 Quality Management System is widely adopted by the sample companies whereas the other model like Six Sigma is not given importance.
