whether a process is in a state of statistical control. Dr. Shewhart believed that lack of information greatly hampered the efforts of control and management processes in a production environment. In order to aid a manager in making scientific, efficient, economical decisions, he developed Statistical Process Control methods.
are indicative of actual process change. Control charts are used for time-series data, When change is detected and considered good its cause should be identified and possibly become the new way of working, where the change is bad then its cause should be identified and eliminated.
PlanDoStudyAct (PDSA):
Plan:
Develop a plan for improving quality at a process Execute the plan, first on a small scale Evaluate feedback to confirm or to adjust the plan Make the plan permanent or study the adjustments
Do:
Study
Act:
As
a model for continuous improvement. When starting a new improvement project. When developing a new or improved design of a process, product or service. When defining a repetitive work process. When planning data collection and analysis in order to verify and prioritize problems or root causes.

Biography
William Edwards Deming was one of the world`s famous American TQM guru since 1940`s. He studied on university of Wyoming, Colorado and Yale. After studies he worked with W. A. Shewhart in Bell Laboratories. During the World War II, he was related with military industry. After the war, he went to Japan in 1950`s. During that time he developed a theory in which he stated that: higher quality means lower costs. He is also an inventor of PDCA cycle and he distinguished 14 quality principles, which refer to quality improvement and by that as he believed to the cost limitation. When he get back to USA, he founded a consulting company
Theories THEORY#1: PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) * cycle of continuous improvement. Other names: Deming cycle, PDSA (Plan-Do-Study-Act), Shewhart cycle. Definition: The plan* do* check* act cycle is a four-step model for carrying out change. Just as a circle has no end, the PDCA cycle should be repeated again and again for continuous improvement.

Plan-Do-Check-Act Procedure:
Plan. Recognize an opportunity and plan a change. Do. Test the change. Carry out a small-scale study. Check. Review the test, analyze the results and identify what you've learned. Act. Take action based on what you learned in the study
STEP: If the change did not work, go through the cycle again with a different plan. If you were successful, incorporate what you learned from the test into wider changes. Use what you learned to plan new improvements, beginning the cycle again.

Education:
He graduated from Tokyo University in 1939 with an engineering degree in applied chemistry.

1939 ----1941: Navial technical officer 1947 moved on to work at the Nissan Liquid Fuel Company.
Ishikawa would now start his career as an associate professor at the University of Tokyo. 1949 Ishikawa joined the Japanese Union of Scientists and Engineers (JUSE) quality control research group. Ishikawa wanted to change the way people think about work.
