Within the Six Sigma Methodology, metrics consist of gathered data that is used to make calculations to produce a quantified analysis of a business process or service that will lead to easily understood process improvement procedures.

Therefore, it is necessary to use specific tools for collecting the appropriate data. Since not just any information will do, there are guidelines to what information is necessary or beneficial. This information set could be called Six Sigma Data. Collecting Six Sigma data requires proper use of tools and analysis procedures.
