Statistical Process control (SPC) is a scientific and inexpensive way to prevents defects. It is an effective check against assignable causes of process variation.
Once a process is brought to stable condition using SPC charts, Engineering Process Control (EPC) helps in predicting the process performance and pro-active adjustments, thereby reducing process variability. It adds extra power to your process control schemes.
Both SPC and EPC are very essential for achieving the PPM (parts per million) defect levels expected of your Six Sigma initiatives.
However, SPC implementation involves statistical computations and charting on a routine basis. By using our SPC software, you can ensure easy and correct implementation.
Our SPC software comes in two forms, viz, LITE Edition (multi-user), and STANDARD Edition (multi-user) to suit the varying requirements and budgets. We highly recommend STANDARD edition for corporate users and LITE edition for beginners / academic users.
Both the LITE and STANDARD editions are economically priced, making them very affordable to corporates as well as individuals.
