Recently, China's economic development has been accelerated by its WTO entry and hosting Bejing Summer Olympic, so on. Many Chinese companies are facing more global competition, while they are growing faster. Therefore, in order to win the battle in the global market, they should improve their efficiency by implementing various management innovation tools such as 6 sigma. 6 sigma is a well-known methodology to improving management efficiency and has been implemented by many global companies. While a large body of research in the field of 6 sigma has been conducted and known in many countries such as USA, Japan, EU, and Korea, Chinese research papers on 6 sigma are still unknown. In this paper, we search, review and summarize the Chinese research papers. Based on this review, we propose the right direction of the 6 sigma research in China.
