My Praxie analytics software transformed our operations, enabling data-driven decisions and streamlining our manufacturing process.
The charter was signed in March. The project is still in Measure.
Replace DMAIC tollgate decks with AI that moves projects through the phases — pulling the data for Measure, testing the hypotheses in Analyse, and verifying the gain in Control.

Dover Food Retail
Our MFG Ops application greatly improved our daily management initiatives. It is easy to see how we are doing, identify issues, and track improvements—no matter where we sit.
Jeff Piotrowicz
ChemLink
With Praxie we've created a way to report on complex projects that gives management full visibility. Executives have visibility to projects, assignments, and more at their fingertips.
Maureen Thompson
American Nurses Association
Our Praxie App makes it easy to track progress on strategic objectives across the organization and includes an executive-level dashboard with real-time reports to the board on key initiatives.

Praxie's innovation solution stood out from other options because it can be customized so quickly to fit our exact process requirements. Plus, it is incredibly easy to use and manage.
The projects do not fail. They stall.
Chartering the project was the easy part. Getting it through Measure, while everyone has a day job, is the job.
“What has the programme actually delivered this year?”
“I am still waiting for someone to pull the data.”
Twenty open charters, four tollgates held, and one completed project.
You do not need more projects. You need the ones you have to keep moving — and prove the gain at the end.
If you own the programme
Is this your project list?
Most Six Sigma and CI leaders recognise at least four of these. If you recognise six, the rest of this page is written for you.
- Projects stall in Measure waiting for data.
- Tollgates happen when the calendar allows.
- Baselines are argued rather than established.
- Belts spend more time building decks than analysing.
- Control plans are written and then abandoned.
- Financial benefit is claimed but never verified.
- Nobody can show programme-level results.
- “Where is that project up to?” requires asking the belt.
None of this is a methodology problem. It is a momentum problem.
Is this you?
Worked example — multi-site Six Sigma programmeProjects used to stall waiting for data.
Months↓Daysto get a project through Measure
Twenty open charters, a handful of belts, and data that had to be requested from someone else every time.
Because each phase depended on manual data pulls and scheduled tollgates, projects aged between reviews — and the programme's results were whatever could be claimed at year end.
With the data connected and phases tracked, Measure stops being a waiting game, Control gains are verified against real numbers, and programme-level results become something you can actually show.

Questions Six Sigma Leaders Ask Us First
The objections we hear in the first 20 minutes — answered plainly.
1
How does AI improve the DMAIC process?
Answer: AI helps teams move faster through Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control by organizing project inputs, surfacing trends, recommending next steps, and keeping improvement work connected to measurable business outcomes.
2
Can AI-powered DMAIC software replace spreadsheets and slide decks?
Answer: Yes. Instead of managing charters, data, analysis, action plans, and control plans across disconnected files, the software keeps everything in one workflow so project teams, sponsors, and leaders can see progress in real time.
3
How does it help with root cause analysis?
Answer: The AI can review process data, notes, defects, downtime, quality issues, and historical project information to identify patterns, suggest likely causes, and guide teams through tools like 5 Whys, fishbone diagrams, Pareto analysis, and hypothesis testing.
4
Will this make DMAIC projects easier for non-experts?
Answer: Yes. AI-powered guidance helps team members understand what to do next, what data is needed, which improvement tools to use, and how to document findings without requiring everyone to be a Six Sigma expert.
5
How does the software help sustain improvements after the project is complete?
Answer: The Control phase becomes easier because the system tracks KPIs, monitors process changes, flags performance drift, and keeps owners accountable for control plans, follow-up actions, and long-term results.
Bottom line: AI-powered DMAIC software helps improvement teams define problems clearly, analyze causes faster, implement better solutions, and sustain measurable gains.
