Question
Answer
show A task to ensure that a good or service conforms to specifications and meets customer requirements by monitoring and measuring processes and making any necessary adjustments to maintain a specified level of performance.  
🗑
show If a defect or error is identified and corrected in the design stage, it might cost $1 to fix. If it is first detected during the prod. process, it might cost $10. However, if the defect is not discovered until it reaches the customer, it might cost $100.  
🗑
Quality at the Source   show
🗑
Statistical Process Control (SPC)   show
🗑
show The result of complex interactions of variations in materials, tools, machines, information, workers, and the environment. *Accounts for 80 to 95 percent of the observed variation in process.  
🗑
T/F: Only Management has the power to change systems and infrastructure that cause common cause variation.   show
🗑
Special (assignable) Cause Variation   show
🗑
show FALSE. Both front-line employees and supervisors have the power ti identify and solve special causes of variation.  
🗑
A process is in control:   show
🗑
A process is out of control:   show
🗑
show 1) Adjusting a process that is already in control. 2) Failing to correct a process that is out of control.  
🗑
show One that is calculated from data that are measured as the degree of conformance to a specification on a continuous scale of measurement.  
🗑
Discrete Metric   show
🗑
A process is said to be "in control" when the control chart has the following characteristics:   show
🗑
show TRUE.  
🗑
show Samples should be close enough to provide opportunity to detect changes in process characteristics as soon as possible and reduce the chances of producing a large amount of nonconforming output.  
🗑
show FALSE. Large samples on a frequent basis are normally not economical.  
🗑
C-chart   show
🗑
c is the average number of nonconformances/unit. Control limits are given by:   show
🗑
T/F: SPC is a useful methodology for process that operate at a high sigma level (Greater than 3-sigma).   show
🗑
show TRUE.  
🗑
Process Capability   show
🗑
Process Capability Study   show
🗑
Process Capability Index   show
🗑
show Cp = (USL -LSL)/6σ USL = Upper specification limit LSL = Lower specification limit σ = standard deviation of the process  
🗑
show Customer requirements, as expressed in the customers own terms.  
🗑
Quality Function Deployment (QFD)   show
🗑
T/F: QFD translates customer wants and needs into technical requirements of a product or service.   show
🗑
