Specifies ways of applying measured data statistical process control (SPC) charts to short runs and small mixed batches where the sample size for monitoring is restricted to one.

This part of BS 5702 describes ways of applying measured data statistical process control (SPC) charts to short runs and small mixed batches where the sample size for monitoring is restricted to one. It provides a set of tools to facilitate the understanding of sources of variation in such processes so that the processes can be better managed.

The charts described are process- rather than product-focused. The user can plot, monitor and control similar characteristics on different items, or different characteristics on an item, on a single control chart.
