Distribution vs. specification
Index reference
| Index | Variation used | Considers centering | Main focus |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cp | Short-term (within-process) | No | Potential capability based on spread alone |
| Cpk | Short-term (within-process) | Yes | Capability accounting for how centered the process is |
| Pp | Overall (long-term) | No | Actual performance based on total spread |
| Ppk | Overall (long-term) | Yes | Actual performance including spread and centering |
| Cpm | Overall + deviation from target | Yes (relative to target) | Capability weighted by closeness to the target value |
