Sammanfattning	Hybrid Six Sigma DMAIC combines the rigorous five-phase DMAIC cycle (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control) with complementary methodologies — most commonly Lean principles, Agile practices, or Design Thinking — to address quality defects and process inefficiencies simultaneously. By integrating speed-focused tools from Lean with the statistical discipline of Six Sigma, hybrid approaches close the gap that pure Six Sigma frameworks sometimes leave when waste elimination and cycle-time reduction are equally critical goals.	Statistical Process Control (SPC) is a data-driven quality method that uses statistical techniques — primarily control charts — to monitor a manufacturing or service process over time. By distinguishing natural process variation (common cause) from unusual, actionable variation (special cause), SPC enables practitioners to maintain processes in a stable, predictable state and to detect problems early, before defective output reaches customers.
