Fundamentals and standard attribute charting for monitoring, control and improvement of business processes using qualitative data.
This British Standard, a part of the BS 5701 series, describes the fundamentals necessary for the successful application, by practitioners, of standard attribute charting for monitoring, control and improvement of business processes.
This standard deals with the application of standard attribute charting at a technical level more suitable for practitioners. Its aim is still to be readily comprehensible to an extensive range of prospective users and so facilitate widespread communication, and understanding, of the method.
This standard focuses on a practical statistical treatment of the charting of qualitative data presenting examples of construction and application using a mainly simple pictorial approach.
This British Standard partially supersedes BS 5701:1980 and BS 2564:1955 and all four parts of BS 5701 together supersede BS 5701:1980 and BS 2564:1955, which are withdrawn.
It includes the following cross references:
BS EN ISO 9000:2000, BS ISO 3534-1, BS ISO 3534-2.
