An empirical study for evaluating performance of King Abdulaziz International Airport with Six Sigma
Abstract
This research is intended to evaluate the efficiency of proceures and processes used by the King Abdulaziz International Airport (KAIA) in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia with the help of Six Sigma. For, we have framed different objectives for analyzing the effect of six sigma in decision makings and quality control of the KAIA. The aim is also to find out the relationship of Six Sigma on an information system used by KAIA. We have used the qualitative research method (semi-structured interview method) with the target population of five employees working at KAIA. Qualitative data was collected from participants through transcribed, audio-recorded and codes. Thematic analysis was carried out in order to obtain the study result. Our study finds that there is a significant effect of Six Sigma in streamlining of all the processes of KAIA, which contributed towards the improvement of the quality and providing better control. We found that the KAIA applies KPIs to measure the decision makin, empowering the decision makers or managers. We have also reflected on the role of Six Sigma towards the effective performance of individuals in finance, customer support, and internal business process and team development.
