The business, commercial and public-sector world has changed
dramatically since John Oakland wrote the first edition of
Statistical Process Control - a practical guide in the
mid-eighties. Then people were rediscovering statistical methods of
'quality control' and the book responded to an often desperate need
to find out about the techniques and use them on data. Pressure
over time from organizations supplying directly to the consumer,
typically in the automotive and high technology sectors, forced
those in charge of the supplying production and service operations
to think more about preventing problems than how to find and fix
them. Subsequent editions retained the 'took kit' approach of the
first but included some of the 'philosophy' behind the techniques
and their use. The theme which runs throughout the 7th edition is
still processes - that require understanding, have variation, must
be properly controlled, have a capability, and need improvement -
the five sections of this new edition. SPC never has been and never
will be simply a 'took kit' and in this book the authors provide,
not only the instructional guide for the tools, but communicate the
management practices which have become so vital to success in
organizations throughout the world. The book is supported by the
authors' extensive and latest consulting work within thousands of
organisations worldwide. Fully updated to include real-life case
studies, new research based on client work from an array of
industries, and integration with the latest computer methods and
Minitab software, the book also retains its valued textbook quality
through clear learning objectives and end of chapter discussion
questions. It can still serve as a textbook for both student and
practicing engineers, scientists, technologists, managers and for
anyone wishing to understand or implement modern statistical
process control techniques.
