• Quality – The control plan methodology reduces waste and improves the quality of products during design, manufacturing and assembly. This structured discipline provides a thorough evaluation of the product and process. Control Plans identify process characteristics and help to identify their sources of variation (input variables), which cause variation in product characteristics (output variables).
• Customer Satisfaction – Control Plans focus resources on processes and products related to characteristics that are important to Delta.
• Communication – As a living document the Control Plan identifies and communicates changes in the product/process characteristics, control method, and characteristic measurement.
