2.0 Step-by-Step Procedure for Implementing SPC 2.1 Choose a company The first step is choosing a company. The company that we choose is Volvo Car Corporation. It is a Swedish premium automobile manufacturer which headquartered in Gothenburg, Sweden in 1927. It is owned by Zhejiang Geely Holding Group of China. It produces a premium range of cars such as sedans, sportswagons, wagons, cross country cars and SUVs which sells across regional market companies and national sales companies. 2.2 Choose a product or process The second step is choosing a product that need improvement and its specification. We chose Volvo V60 which is a five door wagon that released in year 2011. The product that we chose to study is Volvo V60 left side front door. We want to study the closing speed for the car door. The tolerance for this door closing speed is 0.6m/s – 1.4m/s (1±0.4). 2.3 Collect data The third step is to collect data. For Volvo Car Corporation, we have gathered 25 set of samples within four observations. …show more content…
A control chart is used when predict the expected range of outcomes from a process, control ongoing processes, determine either a process is stable or not and analyze process variation patterns from special causes or common causes. Thus, the control chart is used to study the process variation over the time and take corrective action if needed. The control chart has an upper line, central line and lower line for upper limit control, average and lower limit control respectively. There are a few types of control chart, namely x-bar and R-charts, x-bar and s-charts, x-charts, p-chart, np-chart, c-chart and u-chart. The type of control chart being used is choosing based on the data collected which is either variable or attribute. According to Foster (2013), variables data refers as a continuous measurement such as height, weight or volume whereas attribute data refers as an either or situation such as good or
Measurement issues. Data, even numerically coded variables, can be one of 4 levels - nominal, ordinal, interval, or ratio. It is important to identify which level a variable is, as this impact the kind of analysis we can do with the data. For example, descriptive statistics such as means can only be done on interval or ratio level data. Please list under each label, the variables in our data set that belong in each group.
In science, data models are supposed to have the capability to make accurate
Example: relationship between student’s studies and their results. 2. Label each of the following as either data reduction, inference,
Process Controls (PC) each COBIT process has genetic control requirements that are identified by PCn for process control number. They should be considered together with the process control objectives to have a complete view of control requirements. 6. Application Controls(AC) COBIT assumes the design and implementation of automated application controls to be responsibility of IT, which is covered in the Acquire and Implement domain based on business requirements defined using COBIT’s information criteria. The COBIT IT processes cover general IT controls, but only the development aspects of application controls.
Basically, they are identical to the experimental sample which is the independent variable. Natural: Experiments that depend on the observations of the variables that are being studied. And it does not apply to the manipulations of less variables of a controlled experiments. Field: Experiments that have a scientific control and tests a hypothesis in an artificial and highly controlled setting of a laboratory.

Sany has been luring many of their staffs and one of the employees they lured was John Lanning who was the key engineer behind the crawler cranes manufacturer. Sany targeted Manitowoc's employee John Lanning due to his knowledge of the technology and because of this poaching incident, it has led to following patent and trade secret infringement case between Sany and Manitowoc. For a company like Sany, which has spent a large amount of money on R&D with the intention to be a technological leader in its industry was deeply affected by it. Sany wants to show its competitors that not all Chinese companies are using imitation strategy instead it wants to show that Chinese company is capable to be innovative through investment on R&D. However, due to the ongoing violation of intellectual property rights, it has led to negative publicity with buyers of heavy equipment and other manufacturers.

In quantitative research, variables are identified and defined, and then relevant data is collected from study participants. A strength of this type of research is that the data is in numeric form, making it easier to interpret. It also studies the relationship between independent and dependent variables and can address questions such as does a relationship between variables exist, what is the direction of the relationship, how strong is the relationship between the variables, and what is the nature of the relationship. To be able to discover and answer the cause-and-effect relationship is a strength of quantitative research. Lastly, in quantitative research, the study can either be experimental or nonexperimental, meaning clinical trial or observational study, allowing for different types of research studies to be conducted.
