Statistical process control (SPC) involves usingstatistical techniques to measure and analyse thevariation in processes. Most often used formanufacturing processes, the intent of SPC is tomonitor product quality and maintain processes tofixed targets. Statistical quality control refers tousing statistical techniques for measuring andimproving the quality of processes and includes SPC in addition to other techniques, such assampling plans, experimental design, variationreduction, process capability analysis, and processimprovement plans.

SPC is used to monitor the consistency ofprocesses used to manufacture a product asdesigned. It aims to get and keep processes undercontrol. No matter how good or bad the design,SPC can ensure that the product is beingmanufactured as designed and intended. Thus,SPC will not improve a poorly designed product'sreliability, but can be used to maintain theconsistency of how the product is made and,therefore, of the manufactured product itself and itsas-designed reliability .

There are five steps; Determine the method of classifying thedata: by problem, cause, nonconformityand so on. Decide currency, frequency or both areto be used to rank the characteristics. Collect data for an appropriate timeinterval or use historical data .

Another useful tool is process flowdiagram, which in fact is quite simple ifchecked and follow against any working oroperational activity. Figure
shows the flow of the product or service as it moves through thevarious processing operations. The diagram makes it easy to visualise theentire system, identify potential troublespots and locate control activities.

The cause & effect diagram is the brainchildof Kaoru Ishikawa, who pioneered qualitymanagement processes in the Kawasakishipyards, and in the process became one ofthe founding fathers of modern management.The cause and effect diagram is used toexplore all the potential or real causes (orinputs) that result in a single effect (oroutput).

Causes in a cause & effect diagram are frequently arranged into four majorcategories. While these categories canbe anything, you will often see:
