This assignment requires that you submit a report to management assessing this process.

The density of a product is measured every 5 hours and the results of consecutive measurements is provided below. Create and assess control charts using the data below to determine if the process is stable and on target assuming a process target of 90. Explain your rationale.

1 89.11
2 90.59
3 91.03
4 89.46
5 89.78
6 90.05
7 90.63
8 90.75
9 89.65
10 90.15
11 88.55
12 90.43
13 91.04
14 88.17
15 91.23
16 90.92
17 88.86
18 90.87
19 90.73
20 89.78

Suppose that the next 10 observations are 90.75, 90.00, 92.00, 92.05, 91.70,90.65, 90.50, 91.00, 92.30, 91.70. How would this affect your analysis? Hint: You may want to consider the first 20 data points as a Phase 1 Study and the subsequent points as part of Phase 2 monitoring.

All of the following criteria must be fully satisfied to achieve full mark:

  • Correctly selected
  • Control charts selection justified
  • Clear and concise statements used, using statistical terms
  • Selected control charts properly labelled (graph title, axes, scales),
  • Control chart correctly interpreted
  • Out-of-control points identified referencing violated tests
  • Selected control charts properly labelled (graph title, axes, scales),
  • Control chart limits are utilized from phase I data (before adding the extra points)
  • Out-of-control points identified referencing violated tests.
  • Control chart correctly interpreted
  • Issues with the process after point 20 identified
  • Future possible actions required to correct the situation discussed.
  • Properly using Appendixes to display data and properly referencing it.
  • No grammar or typing mistakes
  • Statistical terms are properly used
