We started by creating a House of Quality table to correlate customer wants\/needs to specifications and order our specifications by importance. This will keep us on track and remind us to aim our focus at the most major of goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-2 wp-block-paragraph\">At the same time, we developed more questions for our liaison, especially involving hardware. To aid in discussions, we built a preliminary parts list and system diagram to share our initial design plan and connected that to our budget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-3 wp-block-paragraph\">It feels as if two questions arise every time one gets answered, but the team is facing it head on and can&#8217;t wait to get to work! Looking into next week, the team is beginning to plan a visit to the CACI site to clear up some unknowns and we may meet our primary liaison for the first time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-4 wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, most of our team attended a Six Sigma Training on Saturday, where we earned our Six Sigma White Belt Certification and had a great time bonding and furthering our knowledge of process improvement.<br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The team at the Six Sigma Training and Dalton&#8217;s excused absence at the UF v.
