Building a SIPOC with Matt Hansen at StatStuffMatt Hansen
This document discusses building a SIPOC (Supplier, Input, Process, Output, Customer) diagram, which is a tool used in Six Sigma's Define phase to understand a business process. It explains that a SIPOC extends the basic IPO (Input, Process, Output) model by identifying the suppliers and customers involved. The document provides step-by-step instructions for constructing a SIPOC, using the example of making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. It also encourages practicing this technique on real processes and comparing the SIPOC and reverse COPIS (Customer, Output, Process, Input, Supplier) methods.
Defining a Project Scope with Matt Hansen at StatStuffMatt Hansen
This document discusses defining a project scope. It explains that a project scope establishes boundaries by describing what should and should not be included. This keeps a project focused on the target problem and manageable in size. The scope should be defined by consulting the project sponsor and team to understand inclusions and exclusions. The scope complements background and problem statements and should be validated by the sponsor and team. An appropriate scope can be completed in 3 to 6 months with the needed resources and avoids scope creep that can increase risks and costs.

Distributions: Non-Normal with Matt Hansen at StatStuffMatt Hansen
This document discusses non-normal and bimodal distributions. It explains that non-normal distributions have bias or skewness, which can be caused by non-random sampling methods or processes influencing the results. The median is a better measure of central tendency for non-normal distributions. Bimodal distributions have two central tendencies, indicating observations from multiple populations. The document provides examples and instructs the reader to analyze sample data to identify normal and non-normal distributions using normality tests.
This document provides information on calculating sample sizes using a sample size calculator. It defines sample size calculators, explains their purpose, and describes their key components. It then demonstrates how to use a sample size calculator by inputting values for three components to determine the fourth missing value. Finally, it provides examples of using a sample size calculator for scenarios involving polling for political elections, measuring call durations at a call center, and comparing the efficiencies of two systems.
Data Types with Matt Hansen at StatStuffMatt Hansen
This document discusses the differences between continuous and discrete data types. Continuous data is measured on a continuum and is virtually infinite in scale or divisibility, with examples like dollars, time, and distance. Discrete data is measured by counts or classifications with limited scale and divisibility, with examples like yes/no, colors, and names. The document notes that while percentages are numeric, they actually represent discrete proportions. It also discusses count and classification data as two types of discrete data and provides examples of how each is used. Finally, it prompts the reader to analyze metrics from their own organization to determine if they are continuous or discrete and how they could potentially be measured differently.
Central Tendency with Matt Hansen at StatStuffMatt Hansen
This document discusses central tendency and its measurements. It defines central tendency as referring to the location where the majority of data is concentrated. The three primary measurements of central tendency are the mean, median, and mode. The mean is the average value and ideal for normal distributions. The median is the midpoint and ideal for non-normal distributions. An example is given about firms surveying the age of people watching the children's show Barney, and what the central tendencies would be for each firm's data.
Population vs. Sample Data with Matt Hansen at StatStuffMatt Hansen
This document discusses the difference between population and sample data, and how samples are used to make inferences about populations in statistical analysis. It defines a population as representing every possible observation, while a sample is a subset that aims to fairly represent the population. It notes that using a sample introduces risk that the sample may not accurately reflect the true population parameters, and that statistical analysis aims to mitigate this risk. The document provides examples of how these concepts apply in practical organizational metrics that are measured through sampling.
This document discusses rational sub-grouping, which is the logical division of a process into sub-processes based on distinguishing factors like time, location, processes, or people. It provides examples of how to identify if rational sub-grouping may be needed, such as through special cause variation or non-normal data. Methods for confirming the appropriate rational sub-groups are discussed, including using ANOVA and HOV tests to check for statistical differences between proposed sub-groups. Practitioners are asked to identify metrics and potential sub-grouping options for reporting within their own organizations.
The document discusses how state veteran's homes can use clinical informatics and predictive modeling software to improve resident care, quality management, and regulatory compliance. It highlights how the software (called EQUIP) analyzes MDS data to identify at-risk residents, target interventions, evaluate outcomes, and benchmark performance against appropriate peer facilities like other state veterans' homes. The software is presented as helping facilities improve quality of care while reducing costs through preventative, evidence-based approaches.
Variation Over Time (Short/Long Term Data)Matt Hansen
This document discusses the impact of variation over time in processes and the importance of considering both short-term and long-term data when analyzing a process. Short-term data captures common cause variation within subgroups, while long-term data captures both common and special cause variation across all subgroups over an extended period. Processes tend to show more variation in the long-term due to process drift. The practical application encourages identifying metrics and analyzing short and long-term data to determine the "true" mean and standard deviation of a process over time.
This document provides an overview of the U control chart, which is used to measure the proportion of defectives per unit in a sample. It assumes data is discrete but the units vary in each group. An example shows how to set up and interpret a U chart in Minitab using defect rate data grouped by period. Practitioners are asked to identify two discrete metrics from their organization, run U charts on historical data, and analyze whether any points fail tests indicating special causes of variation.
As part of a series about process capability, this lesson reviews the first 3 steps for following a method for calculating the capability of a process.
The document discusses how to build an effective incident detection system using statistics. It explains that a baseline is needed to determine what normal behavior looks like and how to define abnormal behavior that requires an alert. Key metrics like errors, response times, and percentiles are identified. The document provides examples of how to use statistical distributions like the binomial distribution to calculate the likelihood of an observed value and determine if it warrants an alert or is still within the expected range of normal behavior.
Similar to Overview of Statistical Terms and Concepts with Matt Hansen at StatStuff (20)
This document discusses the importance of formally closing projects. It outlines the key actions needed for closure, including validating that improvements are complete and the process is under control. It recommends reviewing results with the project sponsor and team to get sign-off on closing the project. Additional steps include archiving project files, handing off opportunities to other teams, and celebrating the team's work to recognize their efforts and encourage future success.
A control plan outlines the necessary steps to sustain process improvements. It defines the controls needed and can be a one-page document. The team should agree to the control plan, which is typically built by SMEs and modified by the team. It references metrics, goals, customer requirements, process maps, and procedures. The example control plan monitors billing quality rate and cycle time weekly, with owners responsible for corrective actions if triggers are met. Practical application questions when a control plan was used and how, or why not and what could have been included.
This document provides an overview of using P control charts for discrete quality metrics where the sample size may vary. It defines what a P chart is, its requirements, and how to access it in Minitab. An example is shown of source data on errors over time with varying volumes. Practical application questions are included to identify relevant metrics at an organization, run them through P charts, and determine if any special causes of variation exist that need to be addressed.
This document provides an overview of the Xbar-S control chart, including how to read and set up the chart. The Xbar-S chart plots the sample means (Xbar) and standard deviations (S) of continuous data over time. It requires rational subgrouping of data into at least two samples. The chart is used to determine whether a process is in statistical control and to identify special causes of variation. An example Xbar-S chart is shown with explanation of how points outside the control limits could indicate special causes of non-random variation.
This document provides an overview of the I-MR control chart, including how to read it, its requirements, and how to access it in Minitab. The I-MR chart plots individual data points and their moving ranges on separate charts to detect special causes of variation. An example chart is shown to illustrate failures detected by points outside the control limits. Practitioners are prompted to apply the technique to critical metrics and interpret any failures to determine their causes and necessary actions.
