Abstract:

Management goals, customers’ needs, and government regulations occasionally prevent the use of optimal economic, statistical, or behavioral solutions for quality control problems. This study describes such a case in a near-zero-defect (37 defects per million) environment. A major producer of canned food products considered three post-process control sampling alternatives for finished product evaluation. A plan which compromised between the current sampling plan and a minimum average total inspection/fixed average outgoing quality level plan met the quality objections of the corporation by simultaneously considering the objectives of management, the customers, and government.
