Six Sigma is more predominant and can be applied to only Manufacturing  /  Srevices industry which are more streamlined and controllable in nature..!!!

Every process can be controlled and executed in a disciplined manner, and every disciplined approcach to any process leads to success. I fully trust six sigma and its process planning and believe it can be used in construction field. regarding certification i am not so sure about it.
