| Critical to Quality Characteristic |
End-product characteristic proven to be important to the customer, along with hierarchical reference number. |
| Significant Characteristic Number |
Reference number to organize Significant Characteristics within a hierarchy that relates to the corresponding CTQC's. |
| Significant Characteristic Description |
Process characteristics that have a significant impact on the Critical to Quality Characteristic. |
| Chart Type |
X-bar & R chart, P-chart, C-Chart, Trend chart |
| Chart Champion |
Name of the process owner. |
| Chart Location |
Location where the cart is kept. |
| Measurement Method |
Method used to collect the measurement data, e.g. scale, caliper. |
| Measurement Study |
Yes or No to denote whether a measurement system analysis has been completed. If Yes, show % total error. |
| Reaction Plan |
Reference number to a reaction plan flow-chart that tells the data-plotter what to do in the event of an out-of-control or out-of-spec. condition. Reaction plans may be somewhat generic for families of process with similar criticality. |
| Gage Number |
Reference number for the gage that corresponds to the calibration tracking system. |
| Sampling Plan |
How many samples are drawn at what frequency. |
| Process Stability |
Is the process in a state of statistical control - Yes or NO. |
| Cp/Cpk |
If process is stable, calculate Cp and Cpk. |
