Market Scenario “Then & Now”
Seller’s market
( Monopolist Approach)
Produce anything
No Concern for
Quality
No option Given to
buyers
Buyers Market
( Consumers Approach)
Produce only things
needed
Concerned with
Quality
Many Options
People have become
more Choosy

Quality and Cost
Quality at any Cost has No Meaning.
There must be a Good Balance between
the Quality and the Acceptable Cost the
“Customer is Willing to Pay”

What is Quality
The concept of quality is subjective and is
difficult to define
Certain aspects of quality can be identified
Ultimately, the judgement of quality rests
with the customer

Quality Control and Inspection
Quality Control Dept can not achieve
“Quality”
It has been already Determined by the
time the product has reached inspector
Inspector at his best can Segregate
He can’t undo what has been already
done

Pareto Principle
Vilfredo Pareto (1848-1923) Italian
economist
– 20% of the population has 80% of the wealth
Juran used the term “vital few, trivial
many”. He noted that 20% of the quality
problems caused 80% of the dollar loss.
![Page 52: Quality Circle 1](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022012315/577ccdfa1a28ab9e788d022c/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)

Run Charts (time series plot)
– Examine the behavior of a variable over
time.
– Basis for Control Charts
![Page 87: Quality Circle 1](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022012315/577ccdfa1a28ab9e788d022c/html5/thumbnails/87.jpg)

information in 3 possible factors
Indication of average line
It can be a standard reference value
Population mean line
![Page 88: Quality Circle 1](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022012315/577ccdfa1a28ab9e788d022c/html5/thumbnails/88.jpg)

Definition:
They are graphs that would project the A
statistical tool to determine, whether a
process is in control.
![Page 92: Quality Circle 1](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022012315/577ccdfa1a28ab9e788d022c/html5/thumbnails/92.jpg)
History of Control Charts
Developed in 1920’s By Dr. Walter A.
Shewhart. Shewhart worked for Bell
Telephone Labs in America and introduced
this technique for the first time
![Page 93: Quality Circle 1](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022012315/577ccdfa1a28ab9e788d022c/html5/thumbnails/93.jpg)
Two Types of Control Charts
Variable Control Charts
Attribute Control Charts
![Page 94: Quality Circle 1](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022012315/577ccdfa1a28ab9e788d022c/html5/thumbnails/94.jpg)
Variable Control Charts
Deals with items that can be measured
Examples
1) Weight
2) Height
3) Speed
4) Volume
![Page 95: Quality Circle 1](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022012315/577ccdfa1a28ab9e788d022c/html5/thumbnails/95.jpg)

Variable Control Charts
X chart: deals with a average value in a
process
R chart: takes into count the range of the
values
![Page 97: Quality Circle 1](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022012315/577ccdfa1a28ab9e788d022c/html5/thumbnails/97.jpg)
Attribute Control Charts
Control charts that are drawn for the quality
attributes of a process to determine if the
process is performing “in or out of control”.
![Page 98: Quality Circle 1](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022012315/577ccdfa1a28ab9e788d022c/html5/thumbnails/98.jpg)

C Chart
U Chart
![Page 99: Quality Circle 1](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022012315/577ccdfa1a28ab9e788d022c/html5/thumbnails/99.jpg)
Attribute Control Charts
P Chart: a chart of the percent defective in
each sample set.
C chart: a chart of the number of defects per
unit in each sample set.
U chart: a chart of the average number of
defects in each sample set.
![Page 100: Quality Circle 1](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022012315/577ccdfa1a28ab9e788d022c/html5/thumbnails/100.jpg)
Reasons for using Control
Charts
Improve productivity
Make defects visible
Determine what process adjustments need
to be made
Determine if process is “ in ” or
“ out of control ”
![Page 101: Quality Circle 1](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022012315/577ccdfa1a28ab9e788d022c/html5/thumbnails/101.jpg)
How Will Using Control Charts help the
Company?
Possible Goals when using Control
Charts in the Company:
1. Line reengineering
2. Continuous improvement of process
3. Increased profits
4. Zero defects
