Advanced techniques should not lead to greater complexity. Far too often, process improvement novices take advanced knowledge and attempt complex analysis that lead to incorrect or incomprehensible conclusions. QualPro teaches the use of advanced statistical methods to simplify your efforts. By investing more mental energy into the design stage of the experiment, rather than the analysis stage, your analysis will be simplified and your results clear.
