exel logistic case study

Answer 1 Stalk analyzed the Receiving process and started organizing the data to prepare the Run Chart to display observed data in time sequence. After identifying the 5 sources of error Slotter, Keying, Letdown, ITR ADJ, Putaway, we are trying to notice a trend in the Proportion of errors noticed/Total errors observed. Following are the run charts prepared for this exercise Chart 1 Slotter Errors Chart 2 Keying Errors Chart 3 Letdown Errors Chart 4 ITR ADJ Errors Chart 5 Putaway Errors Chart 6 Other Errors Please open the embedded excel spreadsheet to refer the detailed data. We have provided the corresponding run charts above for quick reference. EMBED Excel.Sheet.8 Answer 2 Margolis and Stalk were able to identify that they are not dealing with measurable variables like length, width or thickness of an object but with the classification of different process stages as being defective or not. This information can help us narrowing down to a particular control chart type. Following is a summarized view of entire exercise which mentions all the calculations required to draw control charts and to reach to conclusion about state of process.
