Hello Shalini, As you said inspection, checklist may also come under the category of mistake proofing. I will give an example for this in many automobile companies which dont follow latest technologies like shutdown alarams have the manual inspection of machines regularly to find out any defects in machines. As soon as you find out any oil dripping out from machine you will sort it out where this can be done thru inspection so you r avoiding mistake in this case.

Dear Parthapratin I dont know whether it will work or not you can use labels or tags naming heatreated or non-heatreated, when you store them together.

Hello Guys, I dont have real time experience for the implementation of Poka-Yoke ( Mistake proofing) but for an idea i can give some examples where we can see in our daily life like Fire Extinguish Sprinklers, Car door indicator, Brake light indicator and many more.

Hello Faisal, Here it is good topic to discuss about. As i come across many organizations where they undertaken the six sigma as a platform for their business and these organizations are really working on it by training their employees on six sigma concepts where this program is not meant for only Quality departments. The main motive behind this is that if every employee is aware of these concepts the organizations will have better control from the initial stage itself.
