Basic Statistical Process Control

Program Description

Statistical process control is a key ingredient in the drive to improve quality, productivity, and competitive position. The work of W. Edwards Deming in Japan, as well as that of Shewhart, Juran, Chambers, and others in the U.S. supports this claim. Many companies are now demanding that suppliers practice statistical process control in meeting contractual specifications.

This course teaches you the intermediate statistical concepts and techniques to begin implementing a statistical process control system in your organization. You will learn how to collect and analyze data to produce meaningful conclusions about your processes and how to improve them. You will also learn about process capability studies and construct statistical process control charts for processes with outputs measured with variables (measurement) data, as well as attributes (defectives) and counts (defects) data.

What You Will Learn

  • Adopting A Systems Perspective
  • Some Basic Statistical Process Control Tools
  • The Theory of Variation
  • Control Charts for Variables Data
  • The Transformation Model
  • Control Charts for Attributes and Counts Data
  • A Basic Procedure for Improving Any System

Who Should Attend
