Q4.1(15 points)
The Elon Company manufactures parts for an aircraft company using three computerized numerical
controlled (CNC) turning centers.
The company wants to decide which machines are capable of producing a specific part with design
specifications of 0.097 inch +-0.015 inch.
The suppliers machines have the following process parameters:
machine 1(process mean=0.095, sigma=0.004)
machine 2(process mean=0.096, sigma=0.009)
Determine which machine (if any) can produce the products within design specifications.
Q4.2(10 points)
A team within the procurement department has undertaken an initiative to enhance the efficiency
of managing suppliers. The primary objective is to minimize operational costs associated with
supplier-related processes by reducing the fraction of suppliers with discrepancies or issues. The
team has developed a clear operational definition for a problematic supplier: a supplier is
considered problematic if it exhibits inconsistencies in pricing, delivers incorrect quantities, utilizes
incorrect coding, provides inaccurate address information, or has incorrect contact names.
To assess the impact of their efforts, the team has adopted a method of randomly selecting and
evaluating a sample of 100 suppliers daily. If any of these randomly chosen suppliers are found to
have one or more issues, they are labeled as problematic. The team has consistently applied this
sampling methodology over the past 25 days.
The data collected during the last 25 days and already prepared for the assessment. (see the excel
file).
Please construct the SPC control to evaluate the process (Please note, the data is preprocessed.
Please build the chart).
What variation in the data does the p control chart discover?
Is the process in statistical control? What does this mean?
Is the process variation acceptable? What should be done next to the process of improving this
process?
