In this study, we propose the multiple comparisons with the best method based on the yield index to compare the process yields of K (K ≥ 2) suppliers for linear profiles with one‐sided specifications. The performance analysis of the proposed method is conducted. The numbers of profiles required for different power levels are also provided. A simulated data set from a leather dyeing process is presented to illustrate the applicability of the proposed method.
