    Brief About 6 Sigma

    The document discusses variance and Six Sigma, explaining that standard deviation is a measure of how spread out numbers are from the average and how it is used to determine control limits on process control charts. It also outlines how control charts can be used as a statistical process control tool to detect when a process may be out of control based on sample data points falling outside the upper and lower control limits.

    Standard Deviation
    a measure of variation of the scores about
    the mean

    Varying the spread
    • Standard deviation is the
    measure of the data
    spreading.
    • The more the standard
    deviation, the wider the
    curve ; the less the standard
    deviation, the narrower the
    curve.

    Control Charts
    Control charts are graphs that illustrate how a process

    performs over time with respect to a specific product

    or service characteristic and provide a statistical

    signal when special causes of variation are present.
