Six Sigma :Is an overall enterprise improvement methodology that uses data to monitor, control, and improve operational performance by eliminating and preventing ‘defects' in products and associated processes. Six Sigma emphasizes producing better, faster, and lower cost product and services than the competition and stresses breakthrough improvement, for improved bottom line results.

CMM1:Capability Maturity Model is unpredictable and often chaotic beacuse the s/w process is constantly changed as the work preogresses.The process is,essentially ,ad hoc and generally Undisciplined ,making the organization an unstable environment for developing s/w.
