NAME OR LOGO
Flow Charts
• a.k.a. process flowchart, process flow diagram
• a picture of the separate steps of a process in sequential order
• a common process analysis tool and one of the seven basic quality tools
• a generic tool that can be adapted for a wide variety of purposes: manufacturing, administrative or service processes, or project plans,
etc.

NAME OR LOGO
Check Sheets
• simple documents used for collecting data in real-time
• a blank form designed for the quick, easy and efficient recording of the desired information, either quantitative or qualitative
• when the information is quantitative, the check sheet is called a Tally Sheet

NAME OR LOGO
Histograms
• ​divide up the range of possible values in a data set into classes or groups
• For each group, a rectangle is constructed with a base length equal to the range of values in that specific group, and an area
proportional to the number of observations falling into that group

NAME OR LOGO
Pareto Diagrams
• ​highlight the most important set of factors among a typically large amount of causes for a problem
• simple bar charts ranking related measures in decreasing order of occurrence
• graphically separating the aspects of a problem, a team will know where to direct its improvement efforts

NAME OR LOGO
Cause-And-Effect Diagrams (Fish Bone)
• ​a.k.a. Ishikawa Diagrams, Herringbone Diagrams, and Fishikawa Diagrams​
• a.k.a. 5M Diagram (Men, Machine, Materials, Measurements and methods)
• non-quantitative tools (Qualitative)
• discover the root cause of a problem
• uncover bottlenecks in processes
• identify where and why a process isn't working

NAME OR LOGO
Control Charts
• a.k.a. statistical process control
• study how a process changes over time
• have a central line for the average, an upper line for the upper control limit and a lower line for the lower control limit
• draw conclusions about whether the process variation is consistent (in control) or is unpredictable (out of control, affected by special
causes of variation)
