    What Is Design for Six Sigma and How Does DMADV Work?Designing Quality in from the Outset

    Design for Six Sigma Training in Saudi Arabia equips engineers and quality professionals to build quality into new products, services and processes from the very start, instead of fixing defects after launch. Design for Six Sigma (DFSS) uses the DMADV roadmap (Define, Measure, Analyse, Design, Verify) to turn customer needs into measurable design requirements and verify performance before production begins. This one-day, practitioner-led programme introduces the full DFSS toolkit: voice of the customer and Kano analysis, CTQ flow-down, Quality Function Deployment (QFD), Pugh concept selection, Design FMEA and robust design. It is written for design and systems engineers, R&D professionals, quality engineers and new product development leads across the Kingdom's manufacturing, petrochemical and industrial base. As Vision 2030 drives industrial localisation and higher-value manufacturing, teams that can design first-time quality are increasingly sought after. Build that capability with Invensis Learning and put DMADV to work on your next design.

    What Our Learners Say

    DMADV Gave Our Design Work Real Structure

    "The DMADV structure finally gave our design work a backbone. I used the QFD House of Quality on a live component project right after the training and it changed how we set targets. The Design FMEA exercise alone was worth attending."

    Faisal Al-Harbi

    Design Engineer, Manufacturing

    0/0

    The Design Counterpart to My DMAIC Skills

    "I came in strong on DMAIC but had no method for new product design. This training filled that gap. Voice of the customer, CTQ flow-down and the Pugh matrix are now part of how I work on every new project."

    Noura Al-Qahtani

    Quality Engineer, Petrochemicals

    0/0

    Robust Design That I Could Use Immediately

    "Practical and well paced for a one-day programme. The robust design and P-diagram session helped me understand why some of our products were sensitive to process variation. I applied the thinking the same week."

    Abdulrahman Yousef

    R&D Specialist, Consumer Goods

    0/0

    Our NPD Team Now Shares One Design-Quality Language

    "We booked the corporate format for our new product development team. Everyone left speaking the same DFSS language, and our design reviews are far more disciplined now. The trainer tailored the exercises to our own projects."

    Frequently Asked QuestionsHere's everything you may ask...

    Design for Six Sigma (DFSS) Training is a practical, non-certification skills course that teaches you to design new products, services and processes to Six Sigma quality levels from the start. It is built for design and systems engineers, R&D professionals, quality engineers, NPD leads and Six Sigma practitioners.

    General

    What is Design for Six Sigma Training and who is it for?

    Design for Six Sigma (DFSS) Training is a practical, non-certification skills course that teaches you to design new products, services and processes to Six Sigma quality levels from the start. It is built for design and systems engineers, R&D professionals, quality engineers, NPD leads and Six Sigma practitioners.

    Is Design for Six Sigma worth it for my career in Saudi Arabia?

    Yes. Under Vision 2030 and IKTVA, the Kingdom is localising manufacturing and raising quality, so engineers who can design first-time quality are in demand across petrochemicals, energy, industrial and consumer sectors. The skills apply immediately to design engineering, R&D and quality roles.

    What is the difference between DFSS and DMAIC?

    DMAIC improves existing processes that are underperforming, while DFSS designs new products, services or processes to meet requirements from the outset using the DMADV roadmap. This course covers DFSS and DMADV. Organisations typically use both: DMAIC to improve what exists, DFSS to design what is new.

    Do I need prior Six Sigma experience to attend?

    No. There are no formal prerequisites. Familiarity with basic Six Sigma ideas such as CTQ, DMAIC and variation is helpful but not required. The programme introduces all DFSS-specific tools and the DMADV methodology from first principles.

    What will I be able to do after the training?

    You will be able to apply the DMADV roadmap, capture voice of the customer with Kano analysis, translate needs into CTQs, build a QFD House of Quality, select concepts with the Pugh matrix, run a Design FMEA, apply robust design and plan design verification and validation.

    Pricing

    How much does Design for Six Sigma Training cost in Saudi Arabia?

    Pricing depends on the delivery mode (live virtual, classroom or corporate), group size and schedule, so it is available on request. Contact a learning advisor for a quote tailored to individual or team enrolment.

    What is included in the training fee?

    The fee typically covers instructor-led sessions, structured DFSS courseware, hands-on tool exercises in VOC, QFD, Pugh selection and DFMEA, learner support and a course completion record. Request a quote to confirm the inclusions for your chosen format.

    Do you offer group or corporate pricing?

    Yes. We offer corporate group training with customised schedules and volume-based pricing for engineering, R&D and quality teams. Ask about corporate or group pricing for a tailored quote for your organisation.

    What payment options are available?

    We accept major credit and debit cards and bank transfers, with instalment options on selected plans. Speak with a learning advisor to choose the option that suits you.

    Is the training good value for engineering teams?

    Yes. By preventing defects at the design stage, DFSS skills cut rework, scrap and late changes that cost far more than the training itself. For teams, one shared methodology quickly pays back across new product projects. Ask about corporate pricing for a team quote.

    Assessment

    Is there an exam or certification for this course?

    No. Design for Six Sigma Training is a non-certification course with no examination. Learning is reinforced through hands-on DFSS tool exercises, case study examples and team discussion during the programme.

    How is my learning assessed during the training?

    There is no formal assessment. Instead, you apply DMADV tools such as VOC to CTQ flow-down, QFD, the Pugh matrix and Design FMEA to realistic design scenarios throughout the programme, so you practise each tool as you learn it.

    Do I receive anything on completion?

    Yes. On completing the programme you receive a course completion record from Invensis Learning. No external credential or certification is awarded, as this is a practical skills training course.

    How long is the training?

    The programme is delivered as a focused one-day (eight-hour) session covering all six DMADV phases with hands-on tool exercises. It can also be arranged over two half-days for corporate groups. Confirm the schedule that suits your team when you enquire.

    Does the course prepare me for a Six Sigma exam?

    No. This is a standalone skills programme, not exam preparation, and no external body governs it. It builds practical DFSS and DMADV capability you apply at work. If you later want exam-based Six Sigma routes, it pairs well with our Lean Six Sigma Green Belt and Black Belt training.

    Course Content

    What topics does the Design for Six Sigma course cover?

    It 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 generation, Pugh matrix and DFMEA), the Design phase (robust design, the P-diagram and DFMA) and the Verify phase (design verification, validation and transfer).

    What is DMADV and why does the course focus on it?

    DMADV (Define, Measure, Analyse, Design, Verify) is the most widely used DFSS roadmap for designing new products and processes to Six Sigma quality. The course uses it because it gives engineers a repeatable, structured path from customer need to a verified, production-ready design.

    Are there hands-on exercises included?

    Yes. You work through practical exercises applying VOC to CTQ flow-down, building a QFD House of Quality, using a Pugh concept selection matrix and completing a Design FMEA, all on realistic product or process design scenarios.

    Can a beginner take this course?

    Yes. The course assumes no prior DFSS knowledge and introduces every tool from first principles. Design engineers, R&D professionals, quality engineers and newcomers to Six Sigma design can all follow it, with hands-on practice to build confidence.

    How does this complement Lean Six Sigma training?

    DFSS is the design counterpart to the DMAIC improvement methodology taught in Lean Six Sigma Green Belt and Black Belt courses. It pairs well with Minitab Essentials for the statistics behind DOE, giving practitioners both improvement and design capability.

    Enrollment

    How do I enrol in the Design for Six Sigma course?

    You can enrol through the Invensis Learning website. Choose your preferred format, complete payment, and you will receive access to the schedule, courseware and learning resources. Talk to a learning advisor if you need help choosing.
