What is a SIPOC – Supply, Input, Process,
Output, Customer?
SIPOC:
Is a tool utilized to ascertain the pertinent
elements of a business process improvement
project before the actual work starts
Helps to delineate key aspects of complex
projects that may not be fully scoped
Many times used in the measurement phase of
the methodology – Six Sigma DMAIC

Through understanding the SIPOC, stakeholders
and project teams members who are unfamiliar

high-level overview
Updates stakeholders and project team members

Supports the defining a new process

More on the SIPOC Diagram?
Customers and Suppliers can be either internal
or external to the company that performs the
process improvement
Information, material or services can be inputs or
outputs
Documenting the inputs and outputs is a salient
focus, not the individual steps of the process
