Best Answer

The underpinnings of the SIPOC model can be traced to the teachings of W. Edwards Deming and his lectures to post-war Japanese business leaders in 1950.

Essentially Deming introduced Japan (and ulitmately the world) to the idea of systems thinking through these lectures. In those lectures Deming used a relatively simple line flow diagram to illustrate his ideas regarding the need for taking a systems perspective.

It was that diagram that later influenced Peter R. Scholtes (a Deming protege) to create what has become the SIPOC model that is now widely known and used thoughout the business process community today (see Chapter 3, The Leader's Handbook, Copyright 1998).
