Six Sigma

More than just another quality control program, Six Sigma creates a culture that demands perfection. Dow Wire & Cable began its Six Sigma efforts in 1998 with the key goal of achieving business excellence through significant reductions in defects and variation in all processes, products and services.

As a key part of our drive toward achieving business excellence, Six Sigma provides a data-driven discipline that focuses on product and service excellence. We have not only gained reliability, timeliness and innovation improvements, but also have raised our quality and efficiency. This helps lower costs, improve cycle times and enhance customer satisfaction.
