Six Sigma in the Pharmaceutical Industry

Much more than a collection of business improvement tools and techniques, "Six Sigma in the Pharmaceutical Industry: Understanding, Reducing and Controlling Variation in Pharmaceuticals and Biologics" presents a complete operating philosophy for reducing costs and increasing production for the pharmaceutical industry. The book begins by discussing the origins of Six Sigma and then explores the traditional and changing concepts of variation. It includes case studies from the pharmaceutical industry throughout the text, along with charts to illustrate these case studies. A final discussion of practical applications and regulatory compliance complete the coverage of this valuable resource.
