Because of the interest level, a further explanation is presented here along with a sample and template for your use. A SIPOC diagram is a tool used by a team to identify all relevant elements of a process improvement project before work begins. It helps define a complex project that may not be well scoped, and is typically employed at the Measure phase of the Six Sigma DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control)\u00a0methodology. It is similar and related to process mapping and \u2018in\/out\u00a0of scope\u2019 tools, but provides additional detail.  The tool name prompts the team to consider the suppliers (the \u2018s\u2019 in SIPOC) of your process, the inputs (the \u2018i\u2019) to the process, the process (the \u2018p\u2019) your team is improving, the outputs (the \u2018o\u2019) of the process, and the customers (the \u2018c\u2019) that receive the process outputs. In some cases, requirements of the customers can be appended to the end of the SIPOC for further detail.  The SIPOC tool is particularly useful when it is not clear:   Who supplies inputs to the process?  What specifications are placed on the inputs?  Who are the true customers of the process?  What are the requirements of the customers?  Sample\u00a0SIPOC Diagram  A SIPOC diagram is a tool used by a team to identify all relevant elements of a process improvement project before work begins.
