Quality by Design: Linking Production & Development
in High-Tech Manufacturing
4 June, Webcast | 18 June, Live in Manchester
See us live or see us wired!
Spend a day at this complimentary seminar and workshop to learn how the comprehensive analytics and interactivity of JMP software from SAS make it the discovery software of choice for manufacturers interested in exploiting data from all stages of the production lifecycle. The workshop looks at how to expedite time to net value for new products, with a particular focus on exploring the design space in an optimal way, but guided by an understanding of what is actually possible in manufacturing.
With JMP’s dynamic visualisation capabilities, you can:
- Explore your design space most efficiently, allowing the identification of truly optimal design characteristics and process conditions that take proper account of your real-world production environment.
- Use intuitive visual approaches that emphasise ‘engineering’ (compromise, trade-off and variation) rather than purely ‘statistical’ ideas.
- Reduce time to market, avoid scale-up and industrialisation problems and increase production yields. Reduce the need for unnecessary or irrelevant measurement schemes in production.
- Reduce the net time to break-even with new product introductions, increasing competitiveness and market share.

More InformationENBIS – the European Network for Business and Industrial Statistics – is the platform where applied statisticians and statistical practitioners meet. QbD is the launch pad for the UK regional network. Dr. Shirley Coleman will give a brief overview of the ENBIS organisation, its mission, achievements, events, their collaboration with JMP and plans for the future. |

More InformationA process is well understood when all critical sources of variability are identified and explained, variability is managed by the process, and product quality attributes can be accurately and reliably predicted over the design space. Quality by Design (QbD) is a systematic approach to development of products and processes that begins with predefined objectives and emphasizes product and process understanding and process control based on sound science, statistical methods and quality risk management. |
