What is a control chart?
_____________________________________
• The control chart is a graph used to study how a process changes over time.
Data are plotted in time order.
• A control chart always has a central line for the average, an upper line for the
upper control limit and a lower line for the lower control limit.
• Lines are determined from historical data. By comparing current data to these
lines, you can draw conclusions about whether the process variation is
consistent (in control) or is unpredictable (out of control, affected by special
causes of variation).

When to use a control chart?
_______________________ ______________
• Controlling ongoing processes by finding and correcting problems as
they occur.
• Predicting the expected range of outcomes from a process.
• Determining whether a process is stable (in statistical control).
• Analyzing patterns of process variation from special causes (non-routine
events) or common causes (built into the process).
• Determining whether the quality improvement project should aim to
prevent specific problems or to make fundamental changes to the
process.

Basic components of control charts
______________________________________
• A centerline, usually the mathematical average of all the
samples plotted.
• Lower and upper control limits defining the constraints of
common cause variations.
• Performance data plotted over time.

Control Chart Basic Procedure
______________________________________
1.determine the appropriate time period for collecting and plotting data.
2.collect data, construct your chart and analyze the data.
3.look for “out-of-control signals” on the control chart.
When one is identified, mark it on the chart and investigate the
cause. Document how you investigated, what you learned, the cause and how
it was corrected.
