Course Overview

AS13006 sets the standard for implementing Process Control which allows effective management of variation to drive consistency in process outputs and enable continuous improvement. Aerospace suppliers are required to ensure that processes are target set and stable (i.e. in control) and assessed to check they are capable. This workshop introduces SPC as a key tool which can be used to achieve quality improvements by providing a structured approach to monitoring and improving process control. Participants will learn how to construct and interpret control charts, and develop their understanding of why the control chart is the best tool to keep a process under control. The course also covers the link from SPC to process capability and, again, covers the ‘how to do it’ and ‘how does it work’ aspects of the subject.  The training will:

  • Help participants understand how to use SPC control charts for continuous and attribute data.

  • Show how to conduct and interpret the results of capability studies.

  • Understand the links between process control techniques and additional quality tools.

  • Discuss the cultural challenges in performing process control studies and how to overcome them.
