What does it do?  | A graphical tool that allows you to view the proportion of defectives and detect the presence of special causes. The p chart is used to understand the ratio of nonconforming units to the total number of units in a sample |
Why Use? 
| The p chart is a tool that will help you determine if your process is in control by determining whether special causes are present. The presence of special cause variation indicates that factors are influencing the output of your process. Eliminating the influence of these factors will improve the performance of your process and bring your process into control |
When Use? 
| You will use a p chart in the Control phase to verify that the process remains in control after the sources of special cause variation have been removed. The p chart is used for processes that generate discrete data. The sample size for the p chart can vary but usually consists of 100 or more |
