Development of Cost-Based Acceptance Sampling Plans for Multi-Stage Inspection Processes
Main Article Content
Abstract
The objective of this research is to develop a cost model for the implementation of ANSI/ASQC Z1.4 single acceptance sampling plans in multi-stage inspection processes. The cost model is developed based on the concept of cost of quality. The developed cost model is used to select parameter values n and c of the ANSI/ASQC Z1.4 sampling plans at each inspection step to optimize total cost of quality. The results are that the proposed cost-based sampling plans provide 6.19% cost saving, equivalent to 8,809,611 Baht per year.
