Overview of Statistical Quality Control

Statistical Quality Control (SQC) involves the use of statistical methods to monitor and control processes to ensure that products meet certain quality standards. It encompasses various techniques for identifying variations in processes and products, thereby enabling corrective actions to maintain or improve quality. Statistical Quality Control By Mahajan.pdf

In the context of this text, quality is defined not as "luxury," but as "conformance to specifications." A $10,000 watch and a $10 watch can both be high quality if they meet their respective design standards perfectly. The role of Statistical Quality Control (SQC) is to ensure that this conformance is consistent, predictable, and cost-effective. Statistical Quality Control By Mahajan

The Goal: To distinguish between "chance causes" (random variation inherent in the process) and "assignable causes" (specific errors like machine failure or raw material defects).
The Outcome: A process is said to be "in control" when it is stable and predictable.
