This workshop prepares teams to perform measurement system analysis (MSA) to determine the adequacy of measurement systems for providing the data necessary for the organization to control products and processes. MSA is a necessary methodology for distinguishing between variation within a business process and variation within the measurement system used to collect data from the business process.

While statistically based, this class teaches the techniques, methods and procedures used by process managers and users to perform MSA. An understanding of basic statistics is recommended but not required.

This course is particularly suited for managers that want to apply MSA and meet the requirements of ISO 9001, ISO/TS 16949 and/or ISO 14001.

Who should attend?

  • Process Owners
  • Functional Managers
  • Process Engineers
  • Improvement Specialists
  • Quality Analysts

  • MSA requirements from system standards
