Abstract: Considering that the existing method of six sigma management innovation efficiency is not high,failing to produce innovative processes and change the status quo of products,based on the existing six sigma management method and extension innovation method,a combination of the two methods is proposed to solve contradictions in the product and process innovation,and the specific steps and framework are presented.And with product innovation problem encountered in case,a quantitative research is conducted using this method.The extension model of product problem is established,the objective or condition of the problem are expanded and transformed,then the strategy is proposed to solve the problem of product and the superior degree evaluation is made to obtain the superior strategy.The integration of these two methods can effectively solve the problem of product or process innovation,effectively improve the quality of the product,and shorten the cycle of operation and reduce the cost.

Key words: extension innovation method, six sigma management method, contradictory problem, product innovation
