Implementing Six Sigma – Westin Shanghai

 
The hotel industry delivers products and services basically through its people.
Given this characteristic, Starwood felt a systematic approach was needed which would allow the hotel to identify process deficiencies in an efficient and effective way. The goal of Six Sigma in Starwood was to increase financial performance by listening to the voice of customer and to improve service quality and consistency to guests and internal customers.
The Westin Bund Center Shanghai made Six Sigma an integral part of its organizational development process and created a systematic approach to improve business performance.
