Synopsis

This book is a how-to manual for implementing a Statistical Process Control program for any type of business. It takes the unnecessarily complicated, sometimes-intimidating Statistical Process Control concept – thoroughly dissects and demystifies it while making it very easy to understand with a minimum of effort. While Statistical Process Control was originally created for manufacturing, this book contains many examples of how SPC can and should be applied in virtually any business to dramatically eliminate waste, improve quality and profits. The book also dispenses with much of the little used theoretical concepts of statistics that can bog down and increase costs of a quality improvement or Six Sigma program and presents SPC in a “meat & potatoes” approach designed to allow anyone to be able to master the basics of Statistical Process Control regardless of their level of education. This book is the product of the author’s many years of experience learning about and teaching Statistical Process Control and his desire to share his knowledge in the hope that he can help others avoid some of the common mistakes usually made.

About this title

About the Author

Author Ralph Celone holds a Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering and a Master's degree in Business Administration. He has been studying process modeling and improvement for most of his 30+ year career while actively employing those techniques in many successful Lean conversions. He has had the pleasure of working for some of world's greatest companies like General Electric and United Technologies in various leadership roles. His career has spanned many diverse industries, including semiconductor manufacturing, aerospace, medical electronics, wire & cable, healthcare and many more. One of the author's most important talents is the ability to take very complex topics and break them down into easily understandable, bite-sized pieces. That is what this book does for SPC - in fact, one of the proofreaders was the author's daughter who had not yet graduated High School. With no previous knowledge of Statistical Process Control, she was able to master the techniques illustrated in this book.
