Learning Outcome 1• LO 1 – Understand the basic types, variations and
characteristics of statistical techniques used in process control.– 1.1 evaluate the two basic types of inspection used in sampling for
process control– 1.2 describe the significance of natural and assignable causes of
variation– 1.3 use selected data to construct frequency distribution and calculate
mean, range and standard deviation– 1.4 relate the characteristics of the normal curve to the distribution of
the means of small groups

So What is SPC?• Statistical: the collection, representation and interpretation
of data.– Statistics provide a means of assessing risks and predicting
results– SPC actually involves the handling of data and understanding
a basic chart.• Process: any activity is a process
– An activity (and hence a process) is a combination of method, people, materials, environment and equipment
• Control: controlling the activity

So What doesControl look like?
• Processes (activities) are initially brought under control and then improved by reducing the variability about the nominal or, if appropriate, reducing the level of rejects to zero.
• Control means avoiding fire-fighting: the instantaneous reaction to problems as and when they occur
• Control means planning and prediction.• It should be recognised that when a process is brought into
control it is then the job of management to continue to improve that process! (IMPROVEMENT SHOULD NEVER STOP!)

Why introduce SPC?• External Pressure
– Demand by customers• Internal Benefits – see next slide• Survival
– Perceived competitive advantage• Quality Costs

Benefits of SPC• Less downtime• Improved performance• Fewer defectives• Fewer production interruptions• Fewer complaints• Increased capacity• Less scrap• More involvement from operatives• Less trouble at next operation• Savings in time

Detection System• Traditional based on inspection• 100% inspection is only about 80% efficient• Repeated inspection see this figure actually reduce!• Inspection based systems are expensive• Inspection based systems can be demotivating• Focus is on scrap, rework, recycling, warranty claims
and concessions

But how ‘good’is inspection?
• If Alfred Fields had though of it first, few of them would have listened and, of those, fewer would have cared because that’s the effect Alfred has on all of us.

See if your Inspectionhas improved with feedback!
• First of all she followed all the rules of the game (as suggested by her friend). But if her friend had offered to find the fundamental principle before she began, her understanding of what was expected of her would have been greatly enhanced before the off.

Did you achieve 100% !!

So how good is Inspectionas a tool to ensure your Quality?
• Statistics show that 100% quality inspection is only, at best, about 95% effective.
• So why not inspect things twice! Would you identify 100% of the defects if you inspected things twice?
• Statistics show that inspecting things twice the chance of finding all the defects fall to 88%. Why do you think this is?

Quality Inspection
• The key point therefore is that you cannot depend upon inspection to identify all your quality defects!
• Why therefore are you wasting your time?

The Traditional Approach to Quality
• Inspection• Detection of Defects• Rejection• Rectification or Scrap• This approach tolerates poor quality – it
does nothing to avoid it!

To remain viable, we must therefore…
• …continually strive to reduce costs.• So what does traditional approach to
quality cost?– To gain an understanding of what quality
costs in your company, try answering the following questions…

The Cost of Administering Traditional Quality
• How many Inspectors do you have?• How much does its cost for their services?• What is the cost of rework?• What is the cost of scrap?• What is the cost associated with your workforce
reworking / scrapping defects?• What are your warranty costs?• Why are companies adding all this expense to
control ensure quality. In effect you are throwing away money?

Statistical ProcessControl (SPC)
• Fortunately there is an alternative to the traditional approach to quality, that based on Statistical Process Control.
• The basis of this approach is..– Collect information– Record– Analyse– Act
• SPC is an approach based upon prevention rather than detection!

Prevention System• Requires operatives to be given ‘tools’ to interpret the
process• Requires operatives to become more involved in finding
solutions to problems which has serious implications for the way companies so business.
• Has implications for the suppliers which spills over to regarding the process upstream as you internal supplier and you becoming an internal customer of the process downstream.
