Here is a sample SIPOC diagram of a manufacturing process. As one of the most renowned process analysis tools, the SIPOC diagram is commonly used by businesses to improve high-level processes, find strengths and weaknesses, and implement new processes. It combines five critical aspects of any process, including Suppliers, Inputs, Process, Outputs, and Customers.
The diagram helps establish the relationships between these elements and how they play their roles in delivering the end product to the customers. As the SIPOC diagram is a process map, it only highlights the most vital aspects of the process with the help of a list to provide a quick overview of how it is working and what can be done to improve it further.
