Ring Power is already a big and successful company, but it’s one company that doesn’t rest on its laurels. Some of its suppliers have gone into Six Sigma before they did. And so you can say that the Six Sigma spirit has rubbed off on Ring Power.
Last month, Ring Power claimed that they were confident about improving their processes because they found an ally with Six Sigma. The company’s enthusiasm to launch Six Sigma programs is become stronger.
For example, to improve its complementary brands business, the company is looking at a Six Sigma joint project with Handley. For parts suppliers, which did not have previous Six Sigma experience, Ring Power came up with an innovative project focused on breaking freight costs out that has reduced costs in the supply chain for more than four years.

For me, this is a unique implementation of Six Sigma programs. While some companies launch their Six Sigma programs within their organization, Ring Power works with its customers-suppliers to launch a Six Sigma program. That way, Ring Power does not only improve its internal processes but also its processes with customers-suppliers.
