Lesson 5 - Quality Tools FOR STUDENTS PDF

This document discusses seven quality control tools: check sheets, scatter diagrams, cause-and-effect diagrams, Pareto charts, flowcharts, histograms, and statistical process control charts. It provides examples and descriptions of each tool to distinguish between them and how they can be used. Check sheets and scatter diagrams are for generating ideas, Pareto charts and flowcharts organize data, and histograms and control charts identify problems. An example is given of using several tools to analyze telephone wait times at a bank to improve quality.

Quality Tools

FAMPO . KALAW . SANTOS


Learning Objective
• Distinguish the seven tools of Quality Control
and create at least one
TQM Tools
► Tools for Generating Ideas
► Check Sheet
► Scatter Diagram

► Cause-and-Effect Diagram

► Tools to Organize the Data


► Pareto Chart
► Flowchart (Process Diagram)
TQM Tools
► Tools for Identifying Problems
► Histogram
► Statistical Process Control Chart
1. Check Sheet
An organized method of recording data
1. Check Sheet
Simple data check-off sheet designed to identify
type of quality problems at each work station; per
shift, per machine, per operator
2. Scatter Diagram
• A graph that shows how two variables are related to
one another
• Data can be used in a regression analysis to establish
equation for the relationship
3. Cause-and-Effect Diagram
• A tool that identifies process elements (causes) that
might effect an outcome
• Called Fishbone diagram
3. Cause-and-Effect Diagram
4. Pareto Chart
• Technique that displays the degree of importance for each element
• Named after the 19th century Italian economist; often called the 80-
20 Rule
• Principle is that quality problems are the result of only a few
problems e.g. 80% of the problems caused by 20% of causes
4. Pareto Chart
5. Flowchart (Process Diagram)
A chart that describes the steps in a process
5. Flowchart (Process Diagram)
MRI Flowchart
1. Physician schedules MRI 7. If unsatisfactory, repeat
2. Patient taken to MRI 8. Patient taken back to room
3. Patient signs in 9. MRI read by radiologist
4. Patient is prepped 10. MRI report transferred to
5. Technician carries out MRI physician
6. Technician inspects film 11. Patient and physician
discuss
6. Histogram
A distribution showing the frequency of occurrences of
a variable
Distribution
Frequency

Repair time (minutes)


7. Statistical Process Control Chart
• A chart with time on the horizontal axis to plot values of a
statistic
• The UCL and LCL are calculated limits used to show when
process is in or out of control
7. Statistical Process Control Chart
Group Task: Quality Tool Example
Case: shortening telephone waiting time…
• A bank is employing a call answering service

• The main goal in terms of quality is “zero waiting time”


- customers get a bad impression
- company vision to be friendly and easy access

• The question is how to analyze the situation and improve quality


Group Task: Quality Tool Example
The current process
Group Task: Quality Tool Example
Fishbone diagram analysis
Group Task: Quality Tool Example
Reasons why customers have to wait
(12-day analysis with check sheet)
Group Task: Quality Tool Example
Pareto Analysis: reasons why customers have to
wait
