For a given process to observe and collect sample data. Write up observation information

In real life we would want to be collecting more data, but time is valuable here and I want you to get a feel for the entire control chart process:

• • Define: What is to be controlled?
  • Measure: How will measurement be accomplished?
  • Compare: There must be a standard of comparison
  • Evaluate: Establish a definition of out of control
  • Correct: Uncover the cause of nonrandom variability and fix it
  • Monitor: Verify that the problem has been eliminated
• Below example for your reference. You can take your own example as well.
• Central tendency of a process (variable)
• Example: shoe size is it consistent?
  • At a shoe store determine your size for a pair of shoes. Important: if you go to a shoe warehouse instead of a retailer that only sells their brand of shoes, you must stick to the same brand of shoe like Nike, Nine West. Then select x shoes in 5 different styles in the store. I suggest going to a self-serve place since pulling all that stock will drive a salesperson crazy! If too large, measure the extra length in inches. (Bring a ruler or tape measure.) If too small, estimate the length required for a comfortable fit. Label the sample style on each column

For full credit you must answer each of the following questions (a sentence or two is just fine):

1. What is the problem to be controlled?
2. How did you conduct your field study? What did you observe/count? Be specific. These points needs to be thought of first before data collection takes place.
3. What you did to achieve a random and consistent sample in your data collection? This point needs to be thought of first before data collection takes place.
4. Did you collect attribute or variable data?
5. If it turns out your data is out of control, do you have any ideas on what could be the cause of nonrandom variability?

Attribute data count occurrences. The sample size must be large enough so that you have at least one non-confirming incident per sample interval. So, may need to be more than 10. Samples 6 1 2 3 4 8 9 10 count
