Acceptable quality level (AQL)?
|
The maximum percentage or proportion of variant units in a lot or batch that, for purposes of acceptance sampling, can be considered satisfactory as a process average.
|
|
Acceptance sampling?
|
Sampling inspection in which decisions are made to accept or not accept a product or service; also, the methodology that deals with procedures where decisions to accept or not accept are based on the results of the inspection of samples.
|
|
Accuracy?
|
A qualitative term that describes the closeness of alignment between an observed value and an accepted reference value.
|
|
Action plan?
|
The detailed plan to implement the actions needed to achieve strategic goals and objectives.
|
|
Activity?
|
An action of some type that requires a time duration for accomplishment.
|
|
Activity network diagram (AND) (arrow diagram)?
|
A management and planning tool used to develop the best possible schedule and appropriate controls to accomplish the schedule; the critical path method (CPM) and the program evaluation review technique (PERT) make use of arrow diagrams.
|
|
Advanced product quality planning (APQP) and control plan?
|
is a comprehensive quality planning and control system specifying protocols for product and process design and development, validation, assessment, and corrective action.
|
|
Advanced quality planning (AQP)?
|
A comprehensive system of applying quality disciplines during a product or process development effort; sometimes also called advanced product quality planning (APQP).
|
|
Alternative hypothesis?
|
In stat hypothesis testing, the hypothesis that the null hypothesis is tested against. If evidence is found against the null hypothesis, the alternative hypothesis is accepted.
|
|
Analysis of variance (ANOVA)?
|
partitioning of total variability components due to factors/other sources of variation. The sources of variation as well as their corresponding sums of squares and degrees of freedom are usually given in an analysis of variance table.
|
|
Analytical study?
|
study that uses theory and a model in order to predict future outcomes or to lead to a change in outcomes.
|
|
Assignable cause?
|
A factor that contributes to variation and that is feasible to detect and identify.
|
|
Assumptions?
|
Conditions that must be true in order for a statistical procedure to be valid.
|
|
Attributes data?
|
Data that are categorized for analysis or evaluation. (Attributes data may involve measurements as long as the measurements are used only to place a given piece of data in a category for further analysis or evaluation. Contrast to variables data.)
|
|
Auditee?
|
The individual or organization being audited.
