| "'Six Sigma: Understanding the Concept, Implications and Challenges', gently and in a novel way, takes the reader to understanding the importance of applied quality techniques in today's industry. Mario Perez-Wilson demonstrates how each 'opportunity of error' in a complex manufacturing or administrative process can mount into disastrous cumulative consequences, if each opportunity is not reduced to zero. Armed with statistical methods, it is possible to achieve zero-defective products in processes involving mass production in the order of the hundred thousand units, and this is what SIX SIGMA does. Like in the electronics industry, there are also many other processes in which it would be impossible to control the release of a flawless product or service if not counting with the power of a tool such as Six Sigma. this book clarifies concepts and introduces a new approach for people who must deal with quality issues, productivity, customer satisfaction, and profitability." Francisco Goytisolo - Consultant, Toronto-Canada |
| "I have now implemented Mario's tools and techniques in three different companies with the same dramatic results each time.

| "The DOEx training was clear, concise and informative." Anthony Gingras - Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt, Department of the Army (YPG) |
| "Mario has put together a very easy to use methodology that can yield results quickly and easily. This is something that can be used effectively in the engineering environment." Ken Kennedy - Staff Engineer, Allied Signal Inc. Aerospace |
| "The book [Design of Experiments] is very good." Dann Johnson - Division Quality Engineer, Arvin Industries |
| "M/PCpS is a clear Methodology for step-by-step process characterization and is one of the most important tools any process engineer can weld to ensure total control of the process." Jaikishan G. - Process Engineer, Motorola (P) Ltd. |
| "...it is a good class...the instructor simplified the material and made it easy to follow and to understand. I strongly recommend this class to all the process and equipment engineers." Justin Op - Process Engineer, Motorola, Inc. |
| "Very organized and well presented." Kenneth Jensen - Sr. Process Engineer, Allied Signal Aerospace |
| "[MPCpS] Program was excellent. Would like to attend the others [course] you teach." R. K. Yeager - Staff Engineer, Allied Signal KCD |
| "I think you [Mario Perez-Wilson] did an excellent job and truly respect your ability to teach as well as relate this vital tool to a broad spectrum of individuals. Thanks for sharing your expertise and knowledge." Kurt Hutchings - Business Unit Manager, Arvin Industries |
| "The technique that was taught is an excellent problem solving method and will greatly benefit my job performance." Jeffrey Rosenblum - Process Engineer, Rodel Inc. |
| "Mr. Perez-Wilson was a complete joy to have as an instructor. Time was given as needed and deemed necessary to let everyone let the subject matter soak in. I am looking forward to the next two sessions." Bill Ponko - Machinist, Zimmer |
| "I really enjoyed the DOEx class. I can say the best training I've taken since I've been with the government. The class helped me to always think out of the box, and there is always room for improving processes." Carlos Anaya - , US Army - Yuma Proving Ground |
| "The book is a 'must buy' and be read and the M/PCpS Methodology be implemented at all Motorola sites to enable us all to achieve 6 sigma which is Motorola's quest for excellence." Hor Nam Chook - Process Engineer, Motorola Electronics Pte. Ltd. |
| "Very good seminar, probably the best seminar I have attended." Emilio Ortega - Quality Assurance Manager, Automatic Spring Coiling |
| "The course is very useful for someone like me who have very little understanding of R&R and SPC. I can see where I would implement this method." James Lin - Process Eng. Tech, Rodel Inc. |
| "The course goes to the heart of process improvement. This methodology is as complete as I have seen." James Schue - Senior SPC Specialist, Zimmer, Inc. |
| "... your presentation was the best one I went to that day and one of the most excellent ones I have gone to. The strength of your presentation was the integrated approach ... which included everything from process capability to Taguchi Design of Experiments..." Dr.Irv Larson - Quality Control Professor, Bemidji State University |
| "....a very systematic approach to machine and process capability studies, which guides the student all the way from the start of the problem to the end--forming positrol plans and control charts, to sustain manufacturing excellence. The book and course are strongly recommended to new engineers and old alike." A.K. Mah - Senior Process Engineer, Motorola Penang |
