ASTM E2281-15R20 - Standard Practice for Process Capability and Performance Measurement

1.1 This practice provides guidance for determining process capability and performance under several common scenarios of use including: (a) normal distribution based capability and performance indices such as C_p, C_pk, P_p, and P_pk; (b) process capability using attribute data for non-conforming units and non-conformities per unit type variables, and (c) additional methods in working with process capability or performance.

1.2 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
