You should be able to:1. List and briefly explain the elements in the control

process2. Explain how control charts are used to monitor a

process, and the concepts that underlie their use3. Use and interpret control charts4. Perform run tests to check for nonrandomness in

process output5. Assess process capability

Quality ControlA process that evaluates output relative to a

standard and takes corrective action when output doesn’t meet standardsIf results are acceptable no further action is

requiredUnacceptable results call for correction action

InspectionAn appraisal activity that compares goods or

services to a standardInspection issues:

1. How much to inspect and how often2. At what points in the process to inspect3. Whether to inspect in a centralized or on-site

location4. Whether to inspect attributes or variables

Typical Inspection Points:Raw materials and purchased partsFinished productsBefore a costly operationBefore an irreversible processBefore a covering process

Effects on cost and level of disruption are a major issue in selecting centralized vs. on-site inspection Centralized

Specialized tests that may best be completed in a lab More specialized testing equipment More favorable testing environment

On-SiteQuicker decisions are renderedAvoid introduction of extraneous factorsQuality at the source

Quality control seeksQuality of Conformance

A product or service conforms to specifications

A tool used to help in this process:SPC

Statistical evaluation of the output of a processHelps us to decide if a process is “in control” or if

corrective action is needed

Two basic questions: concerning variability:1. Issue of Process Control

Are the variations random? If nonrandom variation is present, the process is said to be unstable.

2. Issue of Process Capability Given a stable process, is the inherent

variability of the process within a range that conforms to performance criteria?

VariationRandom (common cause) variation:

Natural variation in the output of a process, created by countless minor factors

Assignable (special cause) variation: A variation whose cause can be identified. A nonrandom variation

SPC involves periodically taking samples of process output and computing sample statistics:Sample meansThe number of occurrences of some outcome

Sample statistics are used to judge the randomness of process variation

Sampling Distribution A theoretical distribution that describes the random

variability of sample statistics The normal distribution is commonly used for this

purpose

Central Limit Theorem The distribution of sample averages tends to be normal

regardless of the shape of the process distribution

Sampling and corrective action are only a part of the control process

Steps required for effective control: Define: What is to be controlled? Measure: How will measurement be accomplished? Compare: There must be a standard of comparison Evaluate: Establish a definition of out of control Correct: Uncover the cause of nonrandom variability

and fix it Monitor: Verify that the problem has been eliminated

Control ChartA time ordered plot of representative sample

statistics obtained from an ongoing process (e.g. sample means), used to distinguish between random and nonrandom variability

Control limitsThe dividing lines between random and nonrandom

deviations from the mean of the distribution

Upper and lower control limits define the range of acceptable variation

Each point on the control chart represents a sample of n observations

Type I error Concluding a process is not in control when it actually

is.The probability of rejecting the null hypothesis when the

null hypothesis is true.Manufacturer’s Risk

Type II error Concluding a process is in control when it is not.

The probability of failing to reject the null hypothesis when the null hypothesis is false.

Consumer’s Risk

To determine initial control limits: Obtain 20 to 25 samples Compute appropriate sample statistics Establish preliminary control limits Determine if any points fall outside of the control limits

If you find no out-of-control signals, assume the process is in control

If you find an out-of-control signal, search for and correct the assignable cause of variation

Resume the process and collect another set of observations on which to base control limits

Plot the data on the control chart and check for out-of-control signals

Even if a process appears to be in control, the data may still not reflect a random process

Analysts often supplement control charts with a run test Run test

A test for patterns in a sequence Run

Sequence of observations with a certain characteristic

Once a process has been determined to be stable, it is necessary to determine if the process is capable of producing output that is within an acceptable range Tolerances or specifications

Range of acceptable values established by engineering design or customer requirements

Process variabilityNatural or inherent variability in a process

Process capabilityThe inherent variability of process output (process width)

relative to the variation allowed by the design specification (specification width)

Quality is a primary consideration for nearly all customersAchieving and maintaining quality standards is

of strategic importance to all business organizationsProduct and service designIncrease capability in order to move from extensive

use of control charts and inspection to achieve desired quality outcomes
