Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A u-chart is a statistical process control tool that tracks the number of defects found in a sample over time. It can help to identify when there are shifts or trends that may indicate a problem with the packing process. A quality assurance committee or new production process may be helpful in addressing larger systemic issues, but a u-chart is a specific tool used for tracking defects in a process. A sampling strategy may be used in conjunction with the u-chart to ensure that a representative sample of packing slips is being evaluated.
