Minitab is a computer program designed to perform statistical functions. In 1972, instructors at the Pennsylvania State University developed Minitab as a light version of OMNITAB, a statistical analysis program by NIST.

The software's success led its creators to form Minitab Inc. in 1983. The privately owned company is headquartered in State College, Pennsylvania, with subsidiaries in Coventry, England (Minitab Ltd.) Paris, France (Minitab SARL) and Sydney, Australia (Minitab Pty.). The company also maintains a worldwide network of resellers and representatives.

Today, Minitab is often used in conjunction with the implementation of Six Sigma and other statistics-based process improvement methods.
