Sensitivity Analysis with Process Capability Analysis

Sensitivity analysis with process capability analysis is a quantitative engineering method that combines the measurement of process performance — via capability indices such as Cp and Cpk — with systematic variation of input factors to identify which factors most strongly influence whether a process meets its specification limits. It is widely used in Six Sigma projects, manufacturing quality improvement, and Design of Experiments contexts to prioritize where corrective action will yield the greatest gain in process capability.
