In reading the book I find the outline to be well organized on tasked subject. The authors are considered experts in the field of Six Sigma and particularly respected in the emergent area of DFSS. The authors have suggested a treatment based upon a good foundation on the subject and followed by a very complete introduction of Six Sigma tools. Subsequent to the tools presentation, there are several applications to the service (transactional) and manufacturing industries that include case studies.
I believe this book to be important for two reasons. First of all, this will be a very comprehensive presentation of Six Sigma methodologies (DMAIC and DFSS) as suited to simulation applications in a very integrated format. In addition, this book is a model of Six Sigma application for broad and important transactional-based process industrial arenas, service and manufacturing. The application of simulation-based Six Sigma and DFSS in several industries is a very important area for new product and service development and will significantly benefit from the integrated application of Six Sigma methodologies.
The manufacturing and service industries will both benefit from this manuscript, in particular companies that are relatively new in their implementation for Six Sigma and who just discovering the value of prevention in new product development (DFSS opportunity). Dr. Basem Haik is one of a very few practicing professional that possesses expertise in the area of `concept optimization' and the only one I know of that has authored books that treat these development methodologies in a truly integrated fashion.
I highly recommend that this book for any practioner in the area of Lean Six Sigma and Design for Six Sigma.
