CMQ/OE FlashcardsA-B-C analysis - ANS-A systematic collection and analysis of the behavior observed of an
individual or a work group for the purpose of determining the cause of specific behaviors.
acceptable quality limit (AQL) - ANS-The quality level that is the worst tolerable process average
when a continuing series of lots is submitted for acceptance sampling.
acceptance sampling - ANS-Inspection of a sample from a lot to decide whether to accept or not
accept that lot. There are two types: attributes sampling and variables sampling. In attributes
sampling, the presence or absence of a characteristic is noted in each of the units inspected. In
variables sampling, the numerical magnitude of a characteristic is measured and recorded for
each inspected unit; this involves reference to a continuous scale of some kind.
acceptance sampling plan - ANS-Specific plan that indicates the sampling sizes and the
associated acceptance or nonacceptance criteria to be used. In attributes sampling, for
example, there are single, double, multiple, sequential, chain, and skip-lot sampling plans. In
variables sampling, there are single, double, and sequential sampling plans. For detailed
descriptions of these plans, see ANSI/ISO/ASQ A35342.
accreditation - ANS-Certification, by a duly recognized body, of the facilities, capability,
objectivity, competence, and integrity of an agency, service, or operational group or individual to
provide the specific service or operation needed. For example, the Registrar Accreditation
Board (U.S.) accredits those organizations that register companies to the ISO 9000 series
standards.
accuracy - ANS-A characteristic of measurement that addresses how lose observed value is to
the true value. It answers the question, "Is it right?"
ACSI - ANS-The American Customer Satisfaction Index is an economic indicator, a
cross-industry measure of the satisfaction of U.S. customers with the quality of the goods and
services available to them-both those goods and services produced within the United States
and those provided as imports from foreign firms that have substantial market shares or dollar
sales.
action plan - ANS-The detailed plan to implement the actions needed to achieve strategic goals
and objectives (similar to, but not as detailed as a project plan).
active listening - ANS-Listening closely to what others are saying (for example, rather than what
you think they're saying or what you want to say back to them).

alignment - ANS-Action taken to ensure that a process or activity allows traceability from an
action level upward to support the organization's strategic goals and objectives.
alliance - ANS-An alliance can be the first step toward a partnership. See partnership/alliance.
alpha risk - ANS-Type 1 error; rejecting a process or lot when it is acceptable. Also see
producer's risk.
analogies - ANS-A technique used to generate new ideas by translating concepts from one
application to another.
analysis of variance (ANOVA) - ANS-A basic statistical technique for analyzing experimental
data. It subdivides the total variation of a data set into meaningful component parts associated
with specific sources of variation order to test a hypothesis on the parameters of the model or to
estimate
analytical thinking - ANS-Breaking down a problem or situation into discrete parts to understand
how each part contributes to the whole.
AND - ANS-activity network diagram. A management and planning tool used to diagram the
sequential relationships of events or processes or deliverables. The critical path method (CPM)
and the program evaluation review technique (PERT) are derived from the arrow diagram.
