Looks like you’re using the ATA Chaps to follow up with malfunctions.
As aircraft systems are complex sets of subsystems it’s better for you to follow by subsystems , e.g for Nav ( ATA 34 ) ATA 34-11 , ATA 34-15….etc , just as examples ( ADF, VOR, ILS….etc )
Today’s central computers allow for a quick tracing of malfunctions and those are t…[Read more]A.B replied to the topic Cost of Quality in IT in the forum General 17 years, 10 months ago

Read this book – ” Customer Centered Six Sigma: Linking Customers, Process Improvement, and Financial Results ” by Naumann and Hoisington.
It’s a good reference for transactional and service businesses with a lot of practical info.
To answer other questions , it’s better if you specify exactly the field of service.

Manu ,
What’s the reason for choosing the subject of six sigma for your dissertation ? Is it a personal decision or advice from academic staff or else ?
This might be one of the first Jury’s questions.

A.BA.B replied to the topic New to Reliability Testing in the forum General 17 years, 11 months ago
As far as I understand your disposable ( non repairable ) device is not concerned by infant mortality nor by wearout types of failures.
Therefore it is recommended to use the exponential distribution as the lifetime distribution model to do the testing.
You are using a Type II Censoring of Data. Number of failures is known in advance and c…[Read more]A.B replied to the topic New to Reliability Testing in the forum General 17 years, 11 months ago

A.BA.B replied to the topic Differences in between MIL-STD-105D MIL-STD-105E in the forum General 17 years, 11 months ago
MIL-STD-105D has evolved into MIL-STD-105E. Both are acceptance-sampling systems developed by the military.
A similar civilian standard is ANSI/ASQC Z1.4 as well as the ISO 2859.

My opinion is the ambiguity lies in the fact that you ( or your customer ) have not defined the geometry of your tolerance : in the case of a hole you can face a circular tolerance as well as a rectangular or a square tolerance. Obviously the circular tolerance is the best for you ( keeping symmetrical intervals around the centre of the hole…[Read more]
A.B replied to the topic Tolrance interpretation in the forum General 17 years, 11 months ago
What do you mean by “perfect” cylinder ? What is your objective ? If you can answer both questions then you can set ” preliminary ” tolerance specs.
It seems that you are not satisfied with the tolerance interval +/- 0.1 , that means you still have not defined your final specs.
Right ?

Darrel ;
Six sigma is not necessarily the key to success. A lot of other companies make profits without using 6 sigma.
The problem with the big Cos is :
– They killed competition slowly : customers have a limited choice for procurement.
– Lack of vision : They haven’t used full potential of their acquisitions and/or mergers. Less products…[Read more]A.B replied to the topic SPC with Excel in the forum General 17 years, 12 months ago

You should be very careful in planning for the experiment. Looks like you’re adjusting levels so to get at the end the results that you really want to get and that’s may be the reason for the failure of your experiments.
This case is may be typical of mixture experiments.

Hi ,- QCI’s SS Primer is an excellent and “flexible” reference. QCI’s Q&A CD is a must have. – Breyfogle’s book ” Implementing Six Sigma ” goes much deeper but covers much more than the ASQ SS BOK. It has a lot of exciting and challenging exercises at the end of each chapter. – Rath & Strong’s Six Sigma Pocket Guide is a very practical and…[Read more]

Incumbent :
Sorry to bother with my question – It is a very sincere + honest one :
Why should SS Recruiters ( or you ) think that you’re exceptional ?. Your answer might help other candidates to apply successfully ( finding a job with a great Co + outstanding salary ) for similar positions.
Thanks in advance for your feedback.
Respectfully.
