Original Message: Our proces is (low volume, high variety, cable overmold, mold design-manufacturing, several mold machines all molds run in all machines, lots of rework-scrap)how can i scope this to a reasonable project? By machine, PN, Defect, etc?
I would start by taking a 30,000-foot-level view of the overall defective rate that is tracked perhaps daily or weekly. A Pareto of defect type over 6 or 1 year data might indicate that there is one prevalent type of defect. You could then track this daily or weekly defect rate at the 20,000-foot-level. We might then work at this level following a DMAIC project improvement roadmap.
