Quality Maintenance is an "advanced" pillar of TPM and aims to assure zero defect conditions. Also known as Hinshitsu Hozen in Japanese, it does this by understanding and controlling the process interactions between the 4Ms - manpower, material, machines and methods that could enable defects to occur. The key is to prevent defects from being produced in the first place, rather than screening them out through inspection systems after they have been produced. Controlling quality through its causes is the essence of Quality Maintenance.

Introduction to Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) in TQMDr.Raja R
This document provides an introduction to Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA). It discusses what FMEA is, the types of FMEA (Design and Process), why FMEA is performed, when to perform it, and the steps to perform an FMEA. FMEA is a systematic method to identify potential failures, assess risks, and mitigate issues in the design or manufacturing process. It involves identifying failure modes and their causes and effects, then prioritizing failures based on severity, occurrence, and detection rankings. The goal is to address high-risk failures early in the design or process development stages to reduce costs and improve quality and safety.
This document provides an introduction to statistical process control (SPC). It discusses the limitations of inspection and why SPC is better. It explains that SPC allows monitoring of processes to detect changes before defective products are produced. Various control chart templates are shown and key SPC concepts are defined, including sources of variation, the central limit theorem, and using average and range to monitor process behavior over time. Examples are provided to illustrate variability, distributions, and how control charts can be used.
This document outlines 16 major types of losses that can occur during production activities. It discusses losses related to equipment failures, setup and adjustment times, tool changes, start-up times, minor stops, reduced speeds, defects and reworking, scheduled downtimes, management issues, operating motions, line organization, logistics, measurements and adjustments, yields, energy usage, and tools, dies and jigs. For each loss type, it provides definitions and discusses general problems and ways to reduce losses, with a focus on achieving single-step defect-free changeovers and eliminating failures and defects. The ultimate goals are improving overall equipment effectiveness and attaining zero losses across all categories.

NG BB 25 Measurement System Analysis - AttributeLeanleaders.org
This document discusses measurement system analysis for attribute data. It explains that attribute or ordinal measurement systems use accept/reject criteria or ratings to determine quality levels. The Kappa and Kendall techniques can be used to evaluate attribute and ordinal measurement systems, respectively. These methods assess consistency between raters when classifying units. Having clear operational definitions is important for attribute measurements, as poor agreement between raters usually stems from unclear definitions. Failing to evaluate attribute measurement systems before using the data can lead to making flawed decisions if the system is inconsistent.
Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) measures how effectively a manufacturing equipment or process is utilized. It considers availability, performance efficiency, and quality rates. Availability looks at downtime losses. Performance measures operation speed versus design capacity. Quality examines good units produced versus total units. An OEE calculation example is shown using these factors to determine the OEE of a process is 77.4%. OEE analysis helps categorize improvement areas to enhance equipment effectiveness.

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.
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 statistical process control and control charts. It defines control charts as tools used to distinguish between common and special cause variation in a process. The document traces the history of control charts to their invention by Walter Shewhart in the 1920s. It describes different types of control charts for continuous and discrete data. It also distinguishes between control limits, which indicate a process's natural variation, and specification limits, which define customer requirements. Finally, it explains the concepts of common and special cause variation and how identifying them is important for process improvement.
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.
Understanding & Managing Variation: Use of Computer SimulationSIMUL8 Corporation
SIMUL8's Brittany Hagedorn joins Mike Stoecklein of the ThedaCare Center for Healthcare Value to discuss the importance of managing variability and how computer simulation can contribute to the ongoing efforts of many healthcare systems to embrace Lean.
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.
This document discusses using statistical process control (SPC) and control charts to analyze software metrics and determine if a software development process is stable or unstable. It notes that without properly analyzing metrics using tools like control charts, it is difficult to know if changes in metrics are due to natural variation or actual process changes. The document explains how control charts can detect the two types of changes that can occur in a process - changes in the center or location of the process, and changes in the dispersion or variation of the process. It provides an example of metrics data and shows how control charts reveal the process is actually unstable and out of control, whereas just eyeballing the data could lead to false conclusions. The document addresses some common miscon
The document outlines a 5-step process for conducting impact assessments of proposed IT changes: 1) define the scope of the change, 2) determine key differences between the current and proposed states, 3) focus on potential effects of those differences, 4) sort and prioritize potential effects by risk, and 5) make a decision on whether to implement the change based on the risk assessment. Following this process can help reduce the high percentage of failed IT changes by systematically evaluating risks. The steps are designed to be simple and can be completed using common tools like word processors or spreadsheets.
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.
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.
CHI'07: Biases in Human Estimation of Interruptibilitycpt.positive
The document reports on a study that examined biases in human estimation of others' interruptibility. Researchers compared self-reported interruptibility levels from participants with estimates of those participants' interruptibility made by other observers viewing video clips. Certain contextual cues like social engagement and phone use affected whether observers over- or under-estimated interruptibility. Observers tended to overestimate interruptibility when cues like computer use were present but not actually correlated with self-reports. The study provides insights into cues that mislead interruptibility estimates and how awareness systems could be designed to avoid or mitigate estimation errors.
The document discusses two types of variation that occur in processes: random/common variation and special/assignable variation. It emphasizes that operators should not make adjustments to processes in response to random variation, as this can increase overall variability, known as "tampering". While special causes can be addressed, random variation is inherent in most real-world processes and adjustments will not reduce it. The document also notes limitations of traditional Statistical Process Control approaches, which often assume processes behave in ways that are not realistic. What is needed are methods adapted to how processes actually operate in practice.
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.
Similar to Variation Causes (Common vs. Special) (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.
A detailed roadmap through the Control phase of the DMAIC methodology that navigates the user through the various tools and concepts for leading a Six Sigma project.
This document provides guidance on using a Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) tool to assess risks from process changes. It discusses when and how to build an FMEA, including identifying process steps, failure modes, potential causes, current controls, and calculating a Risk Priority Number. The FMEA is typically used in the Improve phase of Six Sigma to evaluate risks from proposed improvements or when designing new processes. It helps measure risks so appropriate actions can be planned to mitigate potential failures.
