You can utilize your PMP experience to make sure your project is done effectively and efficiently, where Six Sigma is utilized to make sure your process output is effective and efficient by eliminating or reducing variation. From my own point of view, it is a very powerful combination to have at any industry.

I think PMP and six sigma are very different, we can not compare them,..

PMP is a standard to manage the projects and6sigma is a problem solving technic which has been used in some part of PMBOK.

I think that PMP and Six Sigma are complementary, and i don't think we can compare between them, but i think that they are both helpful and can be perfectly combined. Six Sigma is concerned by how to solve a problem and PMP (PMBoK) shows the way to manage any effort (project) to reach a predefined objective on time and on budget.
