Industrial statistics


Industrial statistics is the application of statistical methods to industry in order to improve product quality, optimize production processes and make data-driven decisions. It includes, in particular, the design of experimental plans and quality control.

Experimental planning is used to optimize and improve production.

The use of quality control techniques makes it possible to monitor and improve production. When manufacturing a product, it is recommended and in some cases mandatory to check that it complies with pre-established specifications or requirements. This guarantees a quality product with a consistent price/quality ratio. Quality control also makes it possible to detect deviations in the manufacturing process over time. These deviations are a source of wasted time and money. Quality control is based in particular on descriptive statistics, cause-and-effect diagrams, control charts and capability tools.
