Extractions: Walter A. Shewhart could be considered the "Father of Quality." This title is most often associated with W. Edwards Deming, but Deming learned "at the feet" of Shewhart. Shewhart laid the first seed of the quality movement with his book "Economic Control of Quality of Manufactured Product." This book introduced the concept of Statistical Process Control. SPC has become the cornerstone for process control in industry. As influential as SPC is, this is not the only contribution made by Shewhart. He planted ideas in the head of Deming that were later turned into the management concepts that Deming took to Japan and finally brought home in the 1980's. One of these ideas was the concept of Profound Knowledge, an idea discussed later in the section on Deming. An idea that is commonly credited to Deming, but in actuality belongs to Shewhart is the PDCA (or PDSA) cycle of management. This is the Plan-Do-Check (or Study)-Act cycle that should be used for all management projects. Plan what you want to do, do it, study the results, make corrections, and then plan for the improvements (starting the cycle again).

Extractions: Further Reading This page offers a list of books and articles for further reading. The structure is: 1) A short list of books and papers with which you should be familiar even if you don't go beyond the statistical depth of Stat 566 in your study of statistical methods for process improvment 2) A list of books and papers of interest to those who intend to go into much more statistical depth, some categorization 3) References relating to the life, work and thought of W. Edwards Deming (which didn't fall into one of the two lists above) 4) Other references which I haven't sorted into one of the previous categories (yet) The short list: Wheeler, Donald J. (1993). Understanding Variation: The Key to Managing Chaos. SPC Press, Inc. Knoxville, Tennessee. 423-584-5005. This is a superb book, targeted at the manager who wants to know how variation and its understanding relate to him/her and their work. It focuses on the type of data which will make sense to a manager at, for instance, the plant manager level and shows eloquently the benefits of a statistical point of view.

http://www.deming.org/theman/articles/articles_threecareers01.html

Extractions: By Michael J. Tortorella W. Edwards Deming, the modest but outspoken man who died of cancer on December 20, 1993, was one of the world's best-known advocates for quality. He bestrode the management consulting world with a deep conviction that the solutions to our problems would be simple it we would only turn from the comfortable but ineffective attitudes of the past and embrace the concept of minimization of variation (along with all its very unfamiliar ramifications). Deming was born 0ctober 14, 1900, in Sioux Falls, Iowa, and grew up in Powell, Wyoming. Much has been made of the influence of his frontier upbringing on his beliefs in the importance of people, the value of cooperation, and the deadliness of waste. Whatever their source, there is no doubt that these values shaped his life and work and caused him to be the bearer of a message that many of the world's religious leaders, philosophers, and advocates of positive thinking would find familiar. Do your best, continually seek to improve that best, look out for the people you are responsible for, and recognize that everyone is in this together.

Extractions: During the 1970s and 1980s an ageless improvement cycle made headlines under the banner, quality improvement. Little was said about the thinker who invented it 2500 years ago. Less was said about the Bell Labs physicist, Walter Shewhart, whose 1932 text - Economic Control of Quality of Manufactured Product - rejuvenated the idea of quality. In 1924 Shewhart invented the control chart that updated Aristotle's originial improvement cycle. Our Six Sigma productivity model is deeply rooted in doing more of what works. What works is the systematic application of science to all business processes: finance, operations, suppliers, quality, marketing, sales, research, and executive decisions. Quality science history works with leading edge computing applications to produce bottom line, financial performance results. Multi-million dollar cost reductions and net revenue increases are routine when top level leaders enthusiastically champion the use of Six Sigma improvement tools. Linking Six Sigma skills to incentive compensation and promotion criteria are key implementation strategies. Over the past decade, our success stories have been published by the American Society for Quality's Quality Press and McGraw Hill. Client endorsements from around the world validate these claims.

Extractions: Releases Who We Are Walter A. Shewhart Father of statistical quality control T Shewhart was concerned that statistical theory serve the needs of industry. He exhibited the restlessness of one looking for a better way. A man of science who patiently developed and tested his ideas and the ideas of others, he was an astute observer of developments in the world of science and technology. While the literature of the day discussed the stochastic nature of both biological and technical systems, and spoke of the possibility of applying statistical methodology to these systems, Shewhart actually showed how it was to be done; in that respect, the field of quality control can claim a genuine pioneer in Shewhart. His monumental work, Economic Control of Quality of Manufactured Product, published in 1931, is regarded as a complete and thorough exposition of the basic principles of quality control.

Sample size: [n] The number of units in a sample. Sample standard deviation chart (S chart): A control chart in which the subgroup standard deviation, s, is used to evaluate the stability of the variability within a process. Sampling at random: As commonly used in acceptance sampling theory, the process of selecting sample units so all units under consideration have the same probability of being selected. Note: Actually, equal probabilities are not necessary for random samplingwhat is necessary is that the probability of selection be ascertainable. However, the stated properties of published sampling tables are based on the assumption of random sampling with equal probabilities. An acceptable method of random selection with equal probabilities is the use of a table of random numbers in a standard manner.

The Deming Cycle
Note The PDCA cycle was in fact originally developed by walter A, shewhart, So sometimes this is referred to as the shewhart Cycle .
http://www.balancedscorecard.org/bkgd/pdca.html

Extractions: © Paul Arveson 1998 W. Edwards Deming in the 1950's proposed that business processes should be analyzed and measured to identify sources of variations that cause products to deviate from customer requirements. He recommended that business processes be placed in a continuous feedback loop so that managers can identify and change the parts of the process that need improvements. As a teacher, Deming created a (rather oversimplified) diagram to illustrate this continuous process, commonly known as the PDCA cycle for Plan, Do, Check, Act*: Deming's PDCA cycle can be illustrated as follows: Deming's focus was on industrial production processes, and the level of improvements he sought were on the level of production. In the modern post-industrial company, these kinds of improvements are still needed but the real performance drivers often occur on the level of business strategy. Strategic deployment is another process, but it has relatively longer-term variations because large companies cannot change as rapidly as small business units. Still, strategic initiatives can and should be placed in a feedback loop, complete with measurements and planning linked in a PDCA cycle. To illustrate the relationship of business unit processes to strategic processes, we may construct two nested PDCA cycles:

Extractions: OVERVIEW In-depth view into Run Chartsa quality improvement technique; how Run charts are used to monitor processes; how using Run charts can lead to improved process quality Run charts are used to analyze processes according to time or order. Run charts are useful in discovering patterns that occur over time. Trends: Trends are patterns or shifts according to time. An upward trend, for instance, would contain a section of data points that increased as time passed. Population: A population is the entire data set of the process. If a process produces one thousand parts a day, the population would be the one thousand items. Sample: A sample is a subgroup or small portion of the population that is examined when the entire population can not be evaluated. For instance, if the process does produce one thousand items a day, the sample size could be perhaps three hundred.
Deming As Pragmatist - Research Paper
walter A. shewhart s influence on Deming demands special note. shewhart, walter A. Statistical Method from the Viewpoint of Quality Control Washington
http://deming.eng.clemson.edu/pub/den/deming_as_prag.htm

Extractions: The University of Kansas btowns@eagle.cc.ukans.edu The aim of this paper is to demonstrate that philosophy influenced the direction of the modern quality movement as articulated by W. Edwards Deming . To do so, I will utilize philosophical inquiry as my methodology. What is philosophical inquiry? According to Charles D. Marlar: philosophical inquiry involves a set of values encompassing (a) a distinctive kind of activity (synthesis, speculation, prescription and analysis), (b) a general content (e.g. ethics), and (c) an attitude of comprehensiveness, self-awarenesss, penetration, and openness." Philosophy helps us understand how we learn and how meaning becomes attached to objects, concepts and, most fundamentally, language. As such, philosophy was of the utmost interest to W. Edwards Deming and the philosophy of pragmatism became the lens through which Deming chose to view his work. According to pragmatism, the 'marketplace of experience' directs one towards meaning in life. Pragmatism provided Deming a philosophical method which dealt with meaning in life, the practical consequences of meaning and with an answer to the fundamental question, 'how do we learn?' Pragmatism is the foundation upon which Deming formulated and developed his theory of quality. While providing us with his theory of quality, Deming also provided an answer to one of his most famous questions; "By what method!?" The answer is contained within the system of profound knowledge. Intimate understanding of the system of profound knowledge will not provide one with metaphysical truths, but rather, will provide one with the basis for understanding the organization as a system and point to the method for a pursuit of quality. The component parts of the system of profound knowledge demonstrate employment of the pragmatic method. The pragmatic method, according to William James, "tries to interpret each notion by tracing its respective practical consequences . . ." The true is the name of whatever proves itself to be good in the way of belief, and good, too, for definite, assignable reasons.
