5 Full Risk is not analyzed A full risk analysis is not done beforehand; purpose(s) of the process, inputs, outputs, measures. The qualification plan is not based on this full risk analysis. A Secondary purpose or effect is not accounted for While the primary purpose of the process is accounted for, possible secondary purposes are not discussed or known and thus potentially not examined and checked. Insufficient Sample Size The sample size used cannot detect shifts with reasonable probability. The probability of missing a shift is not examined up front and thus relative risk is not known.
6 Unexamined Sources of Variation The potential sources of variation were not examined beforehand. Sample and run design does not take into account relevant potential sources of variation. Interactions not tested; Unwanted bias not controlled Interactions between possible factors are not known and not tested. The factor being changed and qualified may interact with other factors that are not being tested.
7 Unwanted bias not controlled or Covariates unaccounted Runs are not randomized but made with intended or unintended patterns; shift to shift, tool to tool, Device to Device, etc.. These patterns are not accounted for in the analysis. Variables that cannot be controlled but may be significant are not measured and included in the analysis. Qualification testing fails to include variation Testing for equivalence is done only on the process average but fails to include potential changes in process variation. This is especially dangerous for low Cpk processes.
8 Testing Equivalence using the wrong control The control sample includes sources of variation that are special cause related or not included in the qualification sample. This inflates the variation used in testing and can hide potentially significant shifts. Shift within Specification Wide specification limits allow for a shift. This shift may bring the process into an area never run in before, but still within specification.
9 Future results are not simulated Given the shift due to the change, the expectation of future performance and Cpk is not simulated up front. No follow-up checks and/or no monitors to catch drift Critical parameters are not checked post change. No follow-up is done to check for stability of the change.

22 power Power is the ability to detect a difference if it is there. Usually want power to be above 0.80.
23 microscope: the more powerful, the more insights that can be seen
24 power Power is affected by: sample size: the more data, the higher power alpha: the higher alpha risk, the higher power standard deviation: the more variability, the less power delta: bigger differences are easier to see (higher power)

35 plan:sampling Step 1: Know your Null Hypothesis H 0 for equivalence: the pre & post processes average and variances are the same Step 2: Determine alpha alpha is inversely proportional to risk Step 3: Collect your data and conduct analysis Step 4: Compare p-value to alpha p > alpha: Fail to reject H 0 (accept H 0 ) p < alpha: reject H 0 Reject H0 Fail to Reject H0
36 errors Type I False Signal make a change that does not result in improvement controlled by alpha: occurs alpha% of the time Type II Missed opportunity fail to make a change that would result in improvement controlled by beta (determined by alpha, sample size, variability and the difference you wish to detect)
37 example 1 Step 1: H 0 for equivalence: the pre & post processes averages are the same Step 2: alpha = 0.05 Step 3: Data complete - analysis at right Step 4: p > alpha: Fail to reject H 0 (accept H 0 )
38 example 2 Step 1: H 0 for equivalence: the pre & post processes averages are the same Step 2: alpha = 0.05 Step 3: Data complete - analysis at right Step 4: p < alpha: reject H 0 (accept H 0 )
