Statistical quality control refers to using statistical methods to monitor and maintain quality in products and services. It involves collecting data samples from a production process and using statistical process control and acceptance sampling techniques to determine if the process is functioning properly and producing acceptable quality levels. The main objectives are to control materials, internal rejections, customer issues, supplier evaluations, and corrective actions. Control charts graphically display process data over time and can identify changes or abnormalities that require process adjustments to maintain control. Common types include X-bar and R charts for variables and P charts for attributes.

1. Statistical Quality Control
What is Statistical Quality Control?
Statistics:
Statistics means the good amount of data to obtain reliable results. The Science of statistics handles this
data in order to draw certain conclusions. Its techniques find extensive applications in quality control,
production planning and control, business charts, linear programming etc.
Quality:
Quality is a relative term and is generally explained with reference to the end use of the product. Quality
is thus defined as fitness for purpose.
Control:
Control is a system for measuring and checking or inspecting a phenomenon. It suggests when to inspect,
how often to inspect and how much to inspect, how often to inspect. Control ascertains quality
characteristics of an item, compares the same with prescribed quality standards and separates defective
item from non-defective ones.
Statistical Quality Control (SQC) is the term used to describe the set of statistical tools used by quality
professionals. SQC is used to analyze the quality problems and solve them.
Statistical quality control refers to the use of statistical methods in the monitoring and maintaining of the
quality of products and services.
Statistica1 quality control (SQC) is the term used to describe the set of statistical tools used by quality
professionals. Statistical quality control can be divided into two broad categories
1. Statistical process control (SPC) involves inspecting a random sample of the output from a process
and deciding whether the process is producing products with characteristics that fall within a
predetermined range. SPC answers the question of whether the process is functioning properly or not.
2. Acceptance sampling is the process of randomly inspecting a sample of goods and deciding whether to
accept the entire lot based on the results. Acceptance sampling determines whether a batch of goods
should be accepted or rejected.
Note: Common causes of variation Random causes that cannot be identified.
Assignable causes of variation Causes that can be identified and eliminated.
Objective of Statistical Quality Control:
Quality Control is very important for an every company. Quality control includes service quality given to
customer, company management leadership, commitment of management, continuous improvement, and
fast response, actions based on facts, employee participation and a quality driven culture. The application
of statistical techniques to measure and evaluate the quality of a product, service, or process.
The main objectives of the quality control module are to control of material reception, internal rejections,
clients, claims, providers and evaluations of the same corrective actions are related to their follow-up.
These systems and methods guide all quality activities. The development and use of performance
2. indicators is linked, directly or indirectly, to customer requirements and satisfaction, and to management.
Benefits of Statistical Quality Control
1) It provides a means of detecting error at inspection.
2) It leads to more uniform quality of production.
3) It improves the relationship with the customer.
4) It reduces inspection costs.
5) It reduces the number of rejects and saves the cost of material.
6) It provides a basis for attainable specifications.
7) It points out the bottlenecks and trouble spots.
8) It provides a means of determining the capability of the manufacturing process.
9) It promotes the understanding and appreciation of quality control.
The Control Chart
Control charts are generally used in a production or manufacturing environment and are used to control,
monitor and IMPROVE a process. A control chart is a graphical display of a measured quality
characteristic. The measurement is plotted on the vertical axis and the sample (subgroup, subsample or
sample number) is recorded on the horizontal axis. A control chart is a graph or chart with limit lines,
called control lines. There are basically three kinds of control lines:
• the upper control limit (UCL),
• the central line (actual nominal size of product),
• The lower controls limit (LCL).
The purpose and advantage of drawing a control chart is
• To detect any changes in the process that would be evident by any abnormal points listed on the
graph from the data collected.
• A control chart indicated whether the process is in control or not.
• It warns in time and can make an immediate adjustment to correct the problem bringing the
process back into a "state of control".
• It ensures product quality level.
• It provides information about the selection of process and setting up the tolerance limit.
There are two main types of Control Charts.
4. • Step 3 - Find the overall mean, or . By using the following formula. .
• Step 4 - Compute the average value of the range ( ) by using the following formula.
• Step 5 - Compute the Control Limit Lines. Use the following formulas for Xbar and R Control
Charts.
The coefficients for calculating the control lines are A2, D4, and D3 are located on the bottom of
the Work Sheet you are presently using, and presented here:
• Control Chart:
Central Line (CL) = .
Upper Control Limit (UCL) = + A2 * .
Lower Control Limit (LCL) = - A2 * .
• R Control Chart:
Central Line (CL) = R bar figure you calculated.
Upper Control Limit (UCL) = D4 * .
Lower Control Limit (LCL) = D3 * .
• Step 6 - Construct the Control Chart. Use graph paper and set the index. Draw in the Control lines
CL, UCL and LCL, and label them with their appropriate numerical values. It is recommended
that you use a blue or black line for the CL, and a red line for the UCL and LCL. The central line
is a solid line. The Upper and Lower control limits are usually drawn as broken lines.
5. • Step 7 - Plot the X bar and R values as computed for each subgroup. Circle any points that lie
outside the control limit lines so that you can distinguish them from the others.
P CHARTS it is used for fraction defective of total products.
Fraction defective (P) is defined as the ratio of the number of defective produced (d) in a sample divided
by the total number of products (n) in that sample.
If is the proportion of defective produced in entire processing or the average fraction defective. It is
given by the following formula

7. Control chart for percent defective (100P chart)
Instead of fraction defective we can also use the defect ratio in terms of percentage. Percentage defective
is 100 times of fraction defective.
Percentage defective = 100 × fraction defective = 100P.
Using the same notation as in P chart, the standard deviation and control limits are
These charts are applicable under the following condition
• nP chart is used when sample size (n) is constant
• P or 100P chart can be used where sample size is variable.

Acceptance Sampling:
It is a process of randomly inspecting the sample of goods deciding, whether to accept or reject the entire
lot.
Goal: To accept or reject a batch of items. Frequently used to test incoming materials from suppliers or
other parts of the organization prior to entry into the production process.
Used to determine whether to accept or reject a batch of products. Measures number of defects in a
sample. Based on the number of defects in the sample the batch is either accepted or rejected. An
acceptance level c is specified. If the number of defects in the sample is c the batch is accepted, otherwise
it is rejected and subjected to 100% inspection.
Acceptance sampling different from statistical process control is that acceptance sampling is performed
before or after the process, rather than during the process. Acceptance sampling before the process
involves sampling materials received from a supplier, such as randomly inspecting crates of fruit that will
be used in a restaurant, boxes of glass dishes that will be sold in a department store, or metal castings that
will be used in a machine shop.
Sampling after the process involves sampling finished items that are to be shipped either to a customer or
to a distribution center. Examples include randomly testing a certain number of computers from a batch to
make sure they meet operational requirements, and randomly inspecting snowboards to make sure that
they are not defective.
It may be wondering why we would only inspect some items in the lot and not the entire lot. Acceptance
sampling is used when inspecting every item is not physically possible or would be overly expensive, or
when inspecting a large number of items would lead to errors due to worker fatigue. This last concern is
12. especially important when a large number of items are processed in a short period of time. Another
example of when acceptance sampling would be used is in destructive testing, such as testing eggs for
salmonella or vehicles for crash testing. Obviously, in these cases it would not be helpful to test every
item! However, 100 percent inspection does make sense if the cost of inspecting an item is less than the
cost of passing on a defective item.
As you will see in this section, the goal of acceptance sampling is to determine the criteria for acceptance
or rejection based on the size of the lot, the size of the sample, and the level of confidence we wish to
attain. Acceptance sampling can be used for both attribute and variable measures, though it is most
commonly used for attributes.
1. Single Sampling Plan: In this plan, a small sample of size (n) is taken randomly and
100% inspection is done on it, if the number of defective part is equal to or less than
acceptance number than entire lot is accepted otherwise rejected.
2. Double Sampling Plan: A sample of n unit is taken randomly and number of defective is
C1 or less than entire lot is accepted. If number of defective is C2 or more than entire lot is
rejected. If the number of defective are between C1 and C2 then another sample of n2 item
is taken. If the total number of defective from the two samples together is C3 or less than
entire lot is accepted, otherwise rejected.
What is Forecasting? Meaning
Forecasting is a process of predicting or estimating the future based on past and present data. Forecasting
provides information about the potential future events and their consequences for the organization. It may
not reduce the complications and uncertainty of the future. However, it increases the confidence of the
management to make important decisions. Forecasting is the basis of premising. Forecasting uses many
statistical techniques. Therefore, it is also called as Statistical Analysis.
Peculiarities, characteristics or features of forecasting are as follows:-
1. Forecasting in concerned with future events.
2. It shows the probability of happening of future events.
3. It analysis past and present data.
4. It uses statistical tools and techniques.
5. It uses personal observations.
Merits, significance or importance of forecasting involves following points:-
1. Forecasting provides relevant and reliable information about the past and present events and the
likely future events. This is necessary for sound planning.
2. It gives confidence to the managers for making important decisions.
3. It is the basis for making planning premises.
4. It keeps managers active and alert to face the challenges of future events and the changes in
the environment.
Demerits, criticism or limitations of forecasting involves following points:-
1. The collection and analysis of data about the past, present and future involves a lot of time
and money. Therefore, managers have to balance the cost of forecasting with its benefits.
Many small firms don't do forecasting because of the high cost.
2. Forecasting can only estimate the future events. It cannot guarantee that these events will
take place in the future. Long-term forecasts will be less accurate as compared to short-
term forecast.
13. 3. Forecasting is based on certain assumptions. If these assumptions are wrong, the
forecasting will be wrong. Forecasting is based on past events. However, history may not
repeat itself at all times.
