Summary of Deming’s Philosophy

Variation is primary source of quality nonconformance

To reduce variation, the search for improved quality is a never-ending cycle of design, production, and delivery followed by surveying customers

Then starting all over again

Basics of Process Capability

99.73% of all output falls between ± 3 standard deviations of process mean

Stable process, in statistical control, can be expected to produce virtually all of its output within these natural tolerance limits

Process’s natural limits must fall within specification limits to be capable
