Tools of TQM

The document discusses seven tools of Total Quality Management (TQM), including flowcharts, cause and effect diagrams, check sheets, Pareto charts, histograms, run charts and control charts, and scatterplots and correlation analysis. It provides more details on Pareto charts, histograms, bar charts, unusual features in histograms, summary statistics, and run charts. Specifically, it notes that Pareto charts can prioritize problems using categorical data, histograms can analyze process variability and continuous data, and run charts examine variation and trends over time for means, counts, or proportions collected periodically.
