Types Of Measurement
Attribute measurement
Product characteristic evaluated with a discrete choice:
Good/bad, yes/no
Variable measurement
Product characteristic that can be measured on a continuous scale:
Length, size, weight, height, time, velocity
getting to the customer 2. Correction: Find the cause of the defect and correct it. 3. Prevention: Prevent the cause from happening again. 4. Continuously improve the system.

Six-Sigma Quality
Pioneered by Motorola in 1988 (Juran claims credit for the idea). 3.4 defects per million Sample size rules become unusable Most process are 4 sigma, e.g. payroll, prescriptions, baggage handling, journal vouchers, restaurant bills. Airline fatalities are 6.4 sigma IRS tax advice is less than 2 sigma Criticism: accepts 3.4 defects/million. Is not zero defects.
