The management of the Diners Delight restaurant chain is in the process of establishing quality control charts for the time that its service people give to each customer. Management thinks the length of time that each customer is given should remain within certain limits to enhance service quality. For simplicity, the data from three samples are displayed below. In each sample, four service people were randomly selected, and the customer service they provided was observed. The time (in seconds) to service each customer was recorded as below.
Service person | Sample 1 (morning) | Sample 2 (afternoon) | Sample 3 (evening) |
#1 | 201 | 196 | 197 |
#2 | 198 | 206 | 210 |
#3 | 190 | 207 | 211 |
#4 | 195 | 202 | 206 |
Sample | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | Mean (X-bar) | Range (R) |
1 | 201 | 198 | 190 | 195 | 196 | 11 |
2 | 196 | 206 | 207 | 202 | 202.75 | 11 |
3 | 197 | 210 | 211 | 206 | 206 | 14 |
(A) Sample size = Number of observations in a sample
Sample size = 4
(B) X-bar value of sample 1 = 196
(C) R-value of sample 2 = 11
(D) Overall Mean () = Average of means
Overall mean () = (196 + 202.75 + 206)/3
Overall mean () = 201.5833
Average Range () = Average of range
Average Range () = (11 + 11 + 14)/3
Average Range () = 12
Sample Size (n) = 4
FOR X-BAR CHART:
*Use mean factor table to find value of A2 at n = 4.
Value of A2 = 0.729
UCL = 201.5833 + (0.729 × 12)
UCL = 210.33
LCL = 201.5833 - (0.729 × 12)
LCL = 192.83
FOR RANGE CHART:
*Use mean factor table to find value of D3 and D4.
Value of D4 = 2.282
Value of D3 = 0
UCL = 2.282 × 12
UCL = 27.384
LCL = 0 × 12
LCL = 0
(E) Given limits of X-bar chart = [120, 170]
Given limits of range chart = [20, 80]
Given Observations = 180, 125, 140, 175, 156, 160
Mean of observations = (180+125+140+175+156+160)/6
Mean of observations = 156
Range = 180 - 125 = 55
Since the mean and the range of observations lie within the given mean and range control limits, therefore the process is in control.
