This book is about improving the quality of products and services. The improved quality and reliability lead to higher perceived value and increased market share for a company, thereby increasing revenue and profitability. The book discusses the concepts and dimensions of quality, costs of poor quality, the importance of quality in this highly competitive global economy, and quality programs--Six Sigma and Lean Six Sigma that focus on improving quality in industries. The text integrates quality concepts, statistical methods, and one of the major tools of quality--Statistical Process Control (SPC)--a major part of Six Sigma control phase. A significant part of the book is devoted to process control and the tools of SPC--control charts--used for monitoring, controlling, and improving the processes by identifying the causes of process variation. The fundamentals of control charts, along with SPC techniques for variables and attributes, and process capability analysis and their computer applications are discussed in detail. This book fills a gap in this area by showing the readers comprehensive and step-wise solutions to model and solve quality problems using computers. 000841957 588__ $$aTitle from PDF title page (viewed on December 26, 2015). 000841957 650_0 $$aQuality of products. 000841957 650_0 $$aQuality control. 000841957 653__ $$acapability analysis 000841957 653__ $$acommon cause of variation 000841957 653__ $$acontrol charts 000841957 653__ $$acontrol charts for attributes 000841957 653__ $$acontrol charts for variables 000841957 653__ $$acontrol limits 000841957 653__ $$acost of quality 000841957 653__ $$alean six sigma 000841957 653__ $$apattern analysis 000841957 653__ $$ap-chart 000841957 653__ $$aprocess spread 000841957 653__ $$aprocess variation 000841957 653__ $$arational subgroup 000841957 653__ $$aR-Chart 000841957 653__ $$arun charts 000841957 653__ $$as-chart 000841957 653__ $$aSix Sigma 000841957 653__ $$aspecial causes of variation 000841957 653__ $$aspecification limits 000841957 653__ $$astatistical process control 000841957 653__ $$athree-sigma limits 000841957 653__ $$atotal quality management (TQM) 000841957 653__ $$ax- chart 000841957 655_0 $$aElectronic books 000841957 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9781631573415 000841957 830_0 $$aSupply and operations management collection.$$x2156-8200 000841957 852__ $$bebk 000841957 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete $$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=4388935$$zOnline Access 000841957 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:841957$$pGLOBAL_SET 000841957 980__ $$aBIB 000841957 980__ $$aEBOOK 000841957 982__ $$aEbook 000841957 983__ $$aOnline
