by Sandip C. Patel, Xingxing Zu
Electronic Government, an International Journal (EG), Vol. 6, No. 3, 2009

Abstract: For an e-government system to be successful, high quality application-software that supports the e-government services is a critical factor. One key aspect in the software development is quality control implemented during the process of the software development project. However, little research has been published to examine how to improve the quality of e-government applications using better process management. In this paper, we present a framework for integrating the Six Sigma methods and tools into the e-government application development process. The proposed framework associates Six Sigma's define-measure-analyse-design-verify (DMADV) procedure and associated tools to various phases of the software development life cycle.
