Using statistics to measure
and manage quality
• Control limits
• Upper and lower standards for allowable variation
• Central limit theorem
• Frequency distribution
• Discrete math— “bins” –count the number of measurements
that fall in each bin
• Normal distribution– “bell-shaped curve”

• Standard deviation
•
•
•
•
•
•
Calculate the mean (or average value) of all measurements
Subtract EACH measurement from the mean
Square EACH difference
Sum the values
Divide the sum by ( (number of values) – 1 )
Take the square root
• Result can be thought of as the average difference

Quality Plan
• The quality plan specifies the control limits
• Often written as the mean ± the acceptable variation
• The size of the range is called the tolerance.
