eliminating defects (driving toward six standard deviations between the mean and the nearest
specification limit) in any process - from manufacturing to transactional and from product to
service.
Design Capacity - CORRECT ANSWER The theoretical maximum output of a system in a
given period under ideal conditions.
Location Analysis - CORRECT ANSWER proximity to customers, transportation, source of
labor, community attitude, proximity to suppliers, and many other factors.
The technique for determining location decisions.
Line Processes - CORRECT ANSWER A type of process used to produce a large volume of a
standardized product.
