Wipro’s Middle East initiative in Six Sigma

Since its entry in the Middle East since 2001, the India-based global IT giant Wipro has expanded its business manifold. The company has practiced Six Sigma since 1997 and assimilated this with other quality management systems such as ISO, TPM, TQM and QS. In a recent initiative, Wipro conducted a day-long workshop on Six Sigma for the members of Dubai Quality Group, a non-profit organization set up by the Department of Economic Development.

The Six Sigma Consulting services of Wipro enable companies to improve processes and identity defect areas which need to be plugged for overall improvement.
Wipro has managed to attract key players in Dubai and other parts of the Middle East as its customers, including Thuraya Satellite Communications, Doha Bank, Qatar Petroleum, and Gulf Insurance Company. AME Info reports:

Ms. Samia Al Yousuf, Manager, DQG said, “Since its inception in February 1994, the DQG has grown to include over 1500 individuals representing over 300 prominent organizations from both, the private and public sectors in UAE. Wipro with its expertise in Six Sigma has contributed significantly and helped DQG in acting as a medium for exchange of knowledge among the business community here.
