Description:

A key concept of the course is that in order to reduce quality loss (black line) in systems exhibiting a lot of variation (red distribution), it is important to first reduce variation (blue distribution) and also to place the distribution on target (green distribution). (Graph by Prof. Daniel Frey.)

Alt text:
Graph shows how manufacturing variations impact cost under different scenarios.
