Overview: Pre-Control is easier than SPC! With no control limits to calculate and go/no go colored zones, this control tool can rapidly help to reduce process variation. Participants will observe a modeled session that both develops and runs a Pre-Control chart.Why should you Attend: Formal SPC requires the calculation of limits and constant assessment for control. If a business is not yet “on-line” electronically with their charts, SPC charts can be difficult to efficiently execute in a process environment. Pre-Control is a color-coded format which uses specification limits which operators can relate to. They use simple levels of “go and no go” based on where the data falls. Participants will see how to draft and create a Pre-Control chart. A sample process will be “run” in which the next step decisions will be modeled. This session will leave people motivated with a plan of how to reduce system complexity while improving upon the efficiency and effectiveness of their quality management system.Note: This session has consistently ranked in the top 1-5% at previous conferences at more than 5 venues. It was featured in ASQ QMD's special edition of the Quality Management Forum's 2015 Spring edition. ASQ-QM.org. A Webinar of this topic was provided in 2015 via the ASQ QMD Linkage Technical Committee to >1300 respondents through the IMA and ASQ QMD Areas Covered in the Session:Reduce process complexity and minimize risk,Increase affectivity of a Core Tool.Increase personnel compliance in proactive process management.Who Will Benefit:Quality, Lean and Engineering system practitionersDirectorsVice-PresidentsEngineersAnalystsManagers, etc.
