    What Is Design for Six Sigma?UntitledDesigning Quality in from the Start

    The Design for Six Sigma (DFSS) Training is a practical, one-day programme that teaches you how to design new products, services and processes to meet customer requirements and reach Six Sigma quality levels from the very start. Design for Six Sigma training in Singapore is built around the DMADV roadmap (Define, Measure, Analyse, Design, Verify) and the core DFSS tools, so you learn to design quality in rather than inspect defects out. Unlike DMAIC, which improves processes that already exist, DFSS is the Six Sigma approach for getting the design right first time. Across a single intensive day you move from capturing the Voice of the Customer and translating it into measurable CTQs, through Quality Function Deployment and concept selection, to Design FMEA, robust design and design verification. The programme suits product and design engineers, R&D professionals, quality engineers, manufacturing and NPI engineers, and Six Sigma Green Belts and Black Belts who want to add DMADV to their toolkit. In Singapore, where semiconductor, precision engineering, medical device and aerospace employers compete on first-time-right quality, these skills apply directly to live design and new product introduction work. Delivered by Invensis Learning in live virtual, classroom and corporate formats, it is a focused way to start applying DFSS from day one.

    What Design Excellence Skills Deliver at WorkValue for Individuals and Teams

    For Individuals

    For Individuals

    This training helps engineers and quality professionals build the practical capability to design products and processes that meet customer needs from the outset. You learn the DMADV methodology and the tools that turn customer requirements into a proven, robust design. Whether you design products, lead R&D, support quality, or run new product introduction in a Singapore manufacturing team, the programme gives you methods you can apply to live design work the next day.

    If you already know DMAIC and want its design counterpart, DFSS closes the gap. You gain a structured way to prevent defects at the design stage, where changes cost a fraction of what they cost after launch, and a skill set employers across advanced manufacturing value.

    • Learn to design quality into new products from the very first concept
    • Apply the DMADV roadmap to real design and new product introduction work
    • Capture the Voice of the Customer and turn it into measurable CTQs
    • Use QFD, the Pugh matrix and DFMEA to make better design decisions
    • Reduce costly late-stage redesign, rework and warranty issues
    • Add a design-side skill set that complements DMAIC and Green Belt training
    • Build robust designs that hold up against real-world variation
    • Receive a course completion record from Invensis Learning
    For Organizations

    For Organizations

    Group training helps organisations design quality into products and processes rather than correcting defects after launch. Teams learn a common DMADV approach and the design tools that connect customer needs to a verified, robust design. For manufacturers under pressure on yield, cost and time to market, this training gives engineering teams a shared, repeatable way to prevent design-driven defects.

    When a whole team shares DFSS methods, VOC workshops, QFD matrices and Design FMEAs become part of how the organisation designs. That consistency shortens development cycles and reduces the expensive rework that surfaces late in new product introduction.

    • Equip design, R&D and quality teams with a shared DFSS language
    • Improve first-time-right quality in new product development
    • Cut development iterations, scrap and field failures
    • Standardise VOC, QFD and DFMEA practice across engineering teams
    • Strengthen design controls for regulated sectors such as medical devices
    • Apply DFSS tools directly to your own live design projects
    • Deliver training on-site, live virtual or blended around project schedules

    Your Singapore Design Skill Shift

    Where You Stand Today and Where DFSS Takes You

    A Practical Design Skill Shift

    Singapore's advanced manufacturing sector is scaling fast, and employers increasingly separate engineers who can design quality in from those who only catch defects later. Here is which side of that line this training puts you on.

    Today

    Skills concentrated in inspection and improvement, not design

    After DFSS

    Design, R&D and quality roles in Singapore reward first-time-right capability, with design and R&D engineers averaging above S$110K

    Today

    Left out of early design decisions where quality is set

    After DFSS

    Ready to contribute to NPI and design projects in semiconductor, MedTech and aerospace teams

    Today

    Confident in delivery, but not in designing quality in upfront

    After DFSS

    Fluent in translating customer needs into robust, verified designs

    You Apply DMADV at Work

    Before

    Quality checked late, after the design is largely fixed

    Now you have

    A structured DMADV method to design quality in from the first concept

    Before

    Design decisions driven by opinion and the loudest voice

    Now you have

    Command of VOC, QFD, DFMEA and robust design as everyday tools

    Before

    Strong on improving processes, but not on designing new ones

    Now you have

    A design-side skill set that complements your DMAIC experience

    Before

    Costly redesign and rework surfacing late in development

    Now you have

    The ability to prevent defects where fixes cost the least

    "The best time to design quality in is at the start, not after the defects appear. That is exactly what DMADV is built to do."

    Join thousands of professionals who trained with Invensis Learning and moved quality upstream.

    How long is the Design for Six Sigma training?

    The programme runs for one day (8 hours) and covers all five DMADV phases, from DFSS foundations and Voice of the Customer through CTQ flow-down, QFD, concept selection and DFMEA to robust design and design verification, with hands-on tool exercises throughout.

    Pricing

    How much does Design for Six Sigma training cost in Singapore?

    Fees vary by delivery format (live virtual, classroom or corporate) and group size, so pricing is available on request in Singapore dollars. Request a quote and a learning advisor will share the options that fit your needs.

    What is included in the course fee?

    The fee typically includes instructor-led training across all six DFSS modules, structured courseware, hands-on tool exercises and templates, case studies, learner support, and a course completion record from Invensis Learning. Ask for a full inclusions list when you request a quote.

    Do you offer corporate or group pricing?

    Yes. We offer corporate group training with customised schedules and volume-based pricing for design, R&D and quality teams. Contact us for a tailored quote for your organisation in Singapore.

    Are payment options available?

    Yes. We accept major cards and bank transfers, and can discuss options for group or corporate enrolments. Talk to a learning advisor to choose the arrangement that suits you.

    Is there a separate exam or certification fee?

    No. This is a non-certification training course with no examination, so there is no separate exam fee. You pay only the training fee, and you receive a course completion record from Invensis Learning on finishing the programme.

    Assessment

    Is there an exam for the Design for Six Sigma training?

    No. This is a non-certification training course with no examination. Learning is reinforced through hands-on DFSS tool exercises, case study work and team discussion across the one-day programme.

    Do I receive a certification after the course?

    No formal certification or credential is awarded, as the course has no governing body or exam. You receive a course completion record from Invensis Learning, and the DFSS skills are immediately applicable to design and NPI projects.

    How am I assessed during the training?

    There is no formal assessment. Instead, you apply the DMADV tools through practical exercises, working VOC to CTQ flow-down, a QFD House of Quality, a Pugh matrix and a Design FMEA against realistic design scenarios during the session.

    Do I need prior Six Sigma knowledge to join?

    No. There are no formal prerequisites. Familiarity with basic Six Sigma concepts such as CTQ and variation is helpful, but the course introduces all DFSS tools and the DMADV methodology from first principles.

    How does this complement my DMAIC or Green Belt training?

    DFSS is the design counterpart to DMAIC. Where DMAIC improves existing processes, DMADV designs new ones correctly from the start, so this course adds design-side capability that Green Belts and Black Belts often need when a root cause requires a design change.

    Course Content

    What topics are covered in the training?

    The programme covers DFSS foundations and the DMADV roadmap, the Define phase (VOC and Kano), the Measure phase (CTQ flow-down and QFD), the Analyse phase (concept selection and DFMEA), the Design phase (robust design and DFMA) and the Verify phase (verification, validation and design transfer).

    What tools will I learn to use?

    You learn to apply Voice of the Customer capture, the Kano model, CTQ flow-down, Quality Function Deployment, the Pugh concept selection matrix, Design FMEA with RPN, the P-diagram, Taguchi robust design thinking and the design scorecard.

    Are there hands-on exercises?

    Yes. Hands-on exercises run throughout the day, including VOC to CTQ flow-down, building a QFD House of Quality, a Pugh concept selection matrix and a DFMEA worksheet, all applied to realistic product or process design scenarios.

    Can a beginner take this course?

    Yes. The course is beginner-friendly and assumes no prior DFSS knowledge, introducing every tool from first principles. It is most impactful for those who already understand DMAIC, but newcomers to Six Sigma can follow and apply the methodology.

    What learning materials are provided?

    You receive structured courseware covering all six DFSS modules, tool templates for VOC, QFD, the Pugh matrix and DFMEA, worked case study examples and reference guides to support you when you apply the methods at work.
