Abstract
  • An analytic model for implementation of participatory process control was designed from a literature review of management theory, organizational development, statistical process control and base study methodology. A fieldwork research plan was developed using case study methods to explain the functional flow of the model. The research data on a major manufacturing company in Oregon were organized according to an eight step functional flow model for participatory process control. The model provided an effective framework to measure process control in a manufacturing facility. Measures of quality and productivity, including: scrap and rework, lost time production, sales dollars from manufacturing and the percentage of labor dollars expended to sales dollars produced increased dramatically during the PPC program. Related issues identified for further research were examination of PPC on a longitudinal basis, collaborative efforts between Product Development and PPC, and simulation of variability.
