Chapter Topics • Total Quality Management (TQM) • Theory of Process Management (Deming’s Fourteen points) • The Theory of Control ChartsCommon Cause Variation Vs Special Cause Variation • Control Charts for the Proportion of Nonconforming Items • Process Variability • Control charts for the Mean and the Range
Control Charts • Monitors Variation in Data • Exhibits Trend - Make Correction Before Process is Out of control • Show When Changes in Data Are Due to • Special or Assignable Causes • Fluctuations Not Inherent to a Process • Represents Problems to be Corrected • Data Outside Control Limits or Trend • Chance or Common Causes • Inherent Random Variations
Process Control Chart • Graph of sample data plotted over time Assignable Cause Variation UCL Process Average ±3s Mean LCL Random Variation
Control Limits • UCL =Process Average + 3 Standard Deviations • LCL = Process Average - 3 Standard Deviations X UCL + 3s Process Average - 3s LCL TIME
Types of Error • First Type: Belief that Observed Value Represents Special Cause When in Fact it is Due to Common Cause • Second Type: Treating Special Cause Variation as if it is Common Cause Variation
Comparing Control Chart Patterns X X X Special Cause Variation: 2 Points Outside Control Limit Common Cause Variation: No Points Outside Control Limit Downward Pattern: No Points Outside Control Limit
When to Take Corrective Action Corrective Action should be Taken When Observing Points Outside the Control Limits or When a Trend Has Been Detected: • 1. Eight Consecutive Points Above the Center Line (or Eight Below) • 2. Eight Consecutive Points that are Increasing (Decreasing)
p Chart • Control Chart for Proportions • Shows Proportion of Nonconforming Items • e.g., Count # defective chairs & divide by total chairs inspected • Chair is either defective or not defective • Used With Equal or Unequal Sample Sizes Over Time • Unequal sizes should not differ by more than ± 25% from average sample size
p Chart Control Limits LCLp = UCLp = Average Proportion of Nonconforming Items Average Group Size # Defective Items in Sample i _ p # of Samples Size of Sample i
p Chart Example • You’re manager of a 500-room hotel. You want to achieve the highest level of service. For 7 days, you collect data on the readiness of 200 rooms. Is the process in control?

Variable Control Charts: R Chart • Monitors Variability in Process • Characteristic of interest is measured on interval or ratio scale. • Shows Sample Range Over Time • Difference between smallest & largest values in inspection sample • e.g., Amount of time required for luggage to be delivered to hotel room

R Chart Example • You’re manager of a 500-room hotel. You want to analyze the time it takes to deliver luggage to the room. For 7 days, you collect data on 5 deliveries per day. Is the process in control?
