The document provides information on various quality control tools including histograms, Pareto diagrams, Ishikawa diagrams, and control charts. Histograms show the distribution of numerical data by frequency. Pareto diagrams highlight the most important factors by showing variables in descending order. Ishikawa diagrams show causes of a problem in a branching diagram format. Control charts graph process data over time to determine if a process is stable or unpredictable through the use of control limits.
The presentation is about basic statistical techniques and how statistics can be used effectively in the quality control and process control. It also presents statistical package Minitab version 16 and some of its applications in the field of statistical process control.
The Seven Basic Tools stand in contrast to more advanced statistical methods such as survey sampling, acceptance sampling, statistical hypothesis testing, design of experiments, multivariate analysis, and various methods developed in the field of operations research.
This presentation discusses Pareto Diagram for bunking lectures.Pareto Diagram is based on Pareto’s Law which states that in almost every case, 80% of the total problems incurred are caused by 20% of the problem cause type, therefore by concentrating on the major problems first, you can eliminate the majority of your problems.

Scatter diagram is the graphical presentation of relationship between two variables. Scatter diagram is an important tool out of 7 fundamental tools of quality control. Scatter diagram helps to confirm the degree of relationship between cause and effect. Here cause is an independent variable and effect is dependent variable. Scatter diagram is an important statistical tool to analyze the relationship of two variables. To create the scatter diagram take the values of independent variable on X-Axis where as the dependent variable is taken on Y-Axis. Plot the intersection points of X and Y on the graph. Draw a straight line passing through all the points. Analyze the pattern of the points. For different degree of relationship different pattern of scatter diagram is formed. If Y increases as X increases and data points are on the straight line then there is perfect positive correlation. If Y decreases with increase of X and data points are on the straight line then there is perfect negative correlation. But when data is scattered all over the graph then there is zero correlation.
process monitoring (statistical process control)Bindutesh Saner
Statistical Process Control (SPC) is an industry
standard methodology for measuring and controlling quality during
the manufacturing process. Attribute data (measurements)
is collected from products as they are being produced. By
establishing upper and lower control limits, variations in the
process can be detected before they result in defective product,
entirely eliminating the need for final inspection.

The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.

2. Histogram
A histogram is a graphical representation of the distribution of numerical data. It
is an estimate of the probability distribution of a continuous variable
(quantitative variable).
Purpose: to roughly assess the probability distribution of a given variable by
depicting the frequencies of observations occurring in certain ranges
of values.
Slide 1
3. Histogram
The vertical axis represents the frequency, that is the number of cases per unit of
the variable on the horizontal axis.
The horizontal axis represents the different variables that characterize the entire
range of values.

4. Histogram
To construct a histogram:
• the first step is to divide the entire range of values into a series of intervals
and then count how many values fall into each interval; the intervals are
usually specified as consecutive, non-overlapping, they must be adjacent and
are usually equal size;
• the second step is to erect a rectangle over the interval with height
proportional to the frequency, so as to show the number of cases in each
interval.
Slide 3
5. Histogram
Example:
You measure the height of every tree in the orchard in centimeters (cm).
The heights vary from 100 cm to 340 cm.
You decide to put the results into groups of 50 cm:
• the 100 to just below 150 cm range;
• the 150 to just below 200 cm range;
• etc...
So a tree that is 260 cm tall is added to the "250-300" range.
And here is the result:

6. ParetoDiagram
A Pareto Diagram is a type of chart that contains both bars and a line graph,
where individual values are represented in descending order by bars, and the
cumulative total is represented by the line.
Purpose: highlight the most important among a set of factors.
Slide 5
7. The left vertical axis is the frequency of occurrence, but it can alternatively
represent cost or another important unit of measure.
The right vertical axis is the cumulative percentage of the total number of
occurrences, total cost, or total of the particular unit of measure.
The horizontal axis represent the
variables.
The line shows the cumulative
relative frequency. Due to the
values of the statistical variables
are placed in order of relative
frequency, the graph clearly
reveals which factors have the
greatest impact and where
attention is likely to yield the
greatest benefit.
Pareto Diagram

8. Example:
XYZ Clothing Store was seeing a steady decline in business. Before the manager
did a customer survey.
By collecting data and displaying it in a Pareto chart, the manager could see
which variables were having the most influence.

are the areas where he should focus his
attention to build his business back up.
In this example,

poor lighting were
hurting his business
most.

10. Ishikawa Diagram
Ishikawa diagram (also called fishbone diagram, herringbone diagram, cause-
and-effect diagram, or Fishikawa) is causal diagram that show the causes of a
specific event or problem.
Purpose: to break down (in successive layers of detail) root causes that
potentially contribute to a particular effect.
Slide 9
11. Common uses of the Ishikawa diagram are product design and quality defect
prevention to identify potential factors causing an overall effect. Each cause or
reason for imperfection is a source of variation. Causes are usually grouped into
major categories to identify these sources of variation.
The categories typically include:
• people: anyone involved with the process;
• methods: how the process is performed and the specific requirements for
doing it, such as policies, procedures, rules, regulations and laws;
• machines: any equipment, computers, tools, etc. required to accomplish the
job;
• materials: raw materials, parts, pens, paper, etc. used to produce the final
product;
• measurements: data generated from the process that are used to evaluate its
quality;
• environment: the conditions, such as location, time, temperature, and culture
in which the process operates.
Ishikawa Diagram
Slide 10
12. How to create a “fish diagram”:
• create a head, which lists the problem or issue to be studied;
• create a backbone for the fish (straight line which leads to the head);
• identify at least four “causes” that contribute to the problem; connect these
four causes with arrows to the spine; these will create the first bones of the
fish;
• brainstorm around each “cause” to document those things that contributed
to the cause; use the 5 Whys or another questioning process such as the 4P’s
(Policies, Procedures, People and Plant) to keep the conversation focused;
• continue breaking down each cause until the root causes have been
identified.
Ishikawa Diagram
Slide 11
13. Example:
this example illustrates how a group might begin a “fish diagram” to identify all
the possible reasons a web site went down in order to discover the root cause.

Slide 12
14. 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 UCL;
• a lower line for the lower control limit LCL;
• points representing a statistic (mean, range, proportion) of measurements of
a quality characteristic in samples taken from the process at different times.
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).
These lines are determined
from historical data.
Slide 13
15. When to Use a Control Chart:
• When controlling ongoing processes by finding and correcting problems as
they occur;
• When determining whether a process is stable (in statistical control);
• When analyzing patterns of process variation from special causes (non-
routine events) or common causes (built into the process);
• When determining whether your quality improvement project should aim to
prevent specific problems or to make fundamental changes to the process.
Control Chart
Slide 14
16. 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.
Control Chart
Slide 15
17. Controlled Variation
Controlled variation is characterized by a
stable and consistent pattern of
variation over time, and is associated
with common causes. A process
operating with controlled variation has
an outcome that is predictable within
the bounds of the control limits.
Uncontrolled Variation
Uncontrolled variation is characterized
by variation that changes over time and
is associated with special causes. The
outcomes of this process are
unpredictable.
Control Chart
Slide 16
18. Example:
A team in an accounting group has been working on improving the processing
of invoices. The team is trying to reduce the cost of processing invoices by
decreasing the fraction of invoices with errors. The team developed the
following operational definition for a defective invoice: an invoice is defective if
it has incorrect price, incorrect quantity, incorrect coding, incorrect address, or
incorrect name. The team decided to pull a random sample of 100 invoices per
day. If the invoice had one or more errors it was defective. The data from the
last 10 days are given in the table.
Control Chart
Slide 17
19. The next step is to calculate the average fraction defective p̄. To determine the
average, we add up all the np values and divide by the sum of all the n values.
The sum of the np values is 239; the sum of the n values is 1000. The average is
then calculated as shown below.
The next step is to determine the average subgroup size n̄. Since the subgroup
size is constant, the average subgroup size is 100. This average calculation is
shown in the second equation where k is the number of subgroups. The next
step is to calculate the control limits. The control limits calculations are shown
below.
Control Chart
Slide 18
21. Conclusion:
We have examined the variation in the % of invoices with errors from day to
day.
• On average, each day will have about 24% of the invoices with errors. Some
days it may be as high as 30% or as low as 20%. Only common causes of
variation are present.
• The process is in statistical control because all the values are within the UCL
and the LCL. This means that the process is consistent and predictable.
Note that this does not mean that the process is acceptable. Having 24% of
invoices with errors is not acceptable. The next step is to apply a problem-
solving model to reduce the number of errors. You should be using a Pareto
diagram with this control chart. The Pareto diagram is used to determine the
reason for errors and the frequency with which they occur.
