Abstract

Literature Review is a collection of various research journals using the Six Sigma method to improve product quality, whose data is taken from Scopus and includes as many as 2,000 documents dating from 1904 to 2022. The purpose of the literature using the database from Scopus is to provide accurate development information about the metadata in each individual scientific article and provide an overview of the use of Six Sigma methods to improve product quality. The method used is bibliometric analysis with the Six Sigma concept through the Scopus database. The results of the data from Scopus are in the form of data analysis on the use of the Six Sigma method. The results of bibliometric analysis based on subject areas are: engineering with 5113 documents (21.4%), other (18.4%), and business, management, and accounting (11.9%). The development of publications on the topic of Six Sigma was significant in 2011 with 703 documents, then in 2020 with 730 documents, and in 2021 with 760 documents. Further research on Six Sigma needs to be conducted in Chemical engineering (3%), followed by Biochemistry (4.2%) and Medicine (5.6%) to deepen the role of Six Sigma in these sectors. Then, further research also needs to consider the location of the research to find out the development of the role of Six Sigma in existing countries. This research also concluded that the Six Sigma method plays an important role in improving product quality, especially in the engineering and manufacturing fields.
