Last year, I wrote about foreseeing Six Sigma success through the Crystal Ball software.
In that entry, Jonathon Andell, President of Andell Associates, an independent consulting firm specializing in the technical, organizational, and interpersonal aspects of modern Quality Management, claimed to have been benefitted by Crystal Ball. He had been a CB user since 1993, and could attest that as a significant software weapon against process and product variation, it can be aligned with Six Sigma initiaves.
Well, a couple of days ago, Decisioneering®, Inc., an innovator of software and services for risk analysis and optimization, announced that Rath & Strong, a leading global provider of Lean Six Sigma and Six Sigma solutions, has joined Decisioneering’s Crystal Ball Six Sigma Partner Program.
Rath & Strong has agreed to work with Decisioneering to promote the use of Crystal Ball simulation and optimization tools throughout its Six Sigma initiatives.
Decisioneering’s Crystal Ball line of Microsoft Excel-based analytical software is used by thousands of businesses in industries ranging from Six Sigma, oil and gas, financial services and pharmaceuticals to assist individuals and organizations in making more informed business decisions. In 2002, Decisioneering launched its Six Sigma Partner Program, a co-marketing effort that provides consultants who practice Six Sigma, Lean Six Sigma and DFSS with materials and assistance for their Crystal Ball training and implementation.
“Rath & Strong will help bring the power of simulation and optimization to Global 1,000 clients across the globe,” said Lawrence Goldman, director of the Crystal Ball Six Sigma Partner Program. “With over 60 consulting firms enrolled in the Crystal Ball Six Sigma Partner Program, we’re not only assisting partners learn these innovative technologies, but were helping them bring the benefits of simulation and optimization to their customers.”
