Introduction
Problems are only opportunities in work clothes
Henry J. Kaiser
Variation Definition

changing value of output from part to part
V6 piston diameters
target diameter = 101.591 mm
measured diameters for 3 consecutive pistons:
101.593, 101.589, 101.597

Describing Processes
If I had to reduce my message to management to just a few
words, Id say it all had to do with reducing variation
W. Edward Deming, 1900-1993
Process
Manufacturing processes
e.g. production of automobiles or automobile parts
Service processes
e.g. credit applications, customer returns, Math
faculty admissions
Chap. 2: Describing
Processes
Measurement processes
e.g. gauges, operators, etc. produce measurements

Suppose Y f x R
where x represents a single cause
Then, assuming independence between
the cause x and all other causes, we have

Projects
Problem Definition
Statistical Engineering requires a focused problem
One project can generate several Statistical Engineering
problem solving efforts
Example leaking engine blocks
Project: Reduce scrap rate due to casting defects in
machined engine blocks
Problems: Eliminate three different failure modes
(center, cylinder bore and rear intake wall) that caused
leaks
Focusing may require studies, new measurement
systems, redefinition of the problem(s).

it is hard to tell what will happen tomorrow
we need to collect data over many more days to
be sure that the baseline variation represents
