Assessment Task-
Complete the following tasks and answer the questions:
1. You have to help the project develop a control chart (c-chart). What are the UCLc and LCLc values for the data? Show the formula used and your calculations.
2. Next, construct a control chart and plot the data on the chart. Is the process in control, or is one or more special causes still lingering?
3. You have to come up with a recommendation. Where do you and the project go from here? You may want to consider the following options: a) provide a control chart that reflects an in-control process, b) abandon the current data and start over again with another prototype production run to seek out special causes that prevented success the first time, or c) try to investigate what actually happened on the production run where the data is from and then make a decision.
