known but the exact reason was difficult to identify due to complexities in Blast Furnace Process. Hence a Six Sigma Black Belt Project had been taken up to control the silicon level of BF # 1 hot metal and maintain it at an optimum level below 0.7 %. Pareto Analysis and Graphical Summary of Historical Data helped to find out a baseline of 64.88 % casts having silicon in hot metal more than 0.7% and an entitlement of 33% casts on daily average data base. A target of reduction of percentage casts having

need to have a structured approach to determining a solution. There are seven tools that Quality can use to improve their processes during production of the ice cream. These tools are: flow charts‚ run charts‚ process-control charts‚ check sheets‚ Pareto diagrams‚ cause-and-effect diagrams‚ and scatter diagrams (Sower‚ p.182). Each of these will help the identification of the variation that is happening and will also aid in the analysis‚ documentation and organization of the information. This will
