  1. The data set follows a normal distribution and therefore can be characterized by the sample mean and standard distribution (S) with an associated confidence interval. The process outcomes will follow this characterized distribution. For example, future data sets of comparable quantity will have a mean in the range of the confidence interval.
  2. An airline has the normally distributed data of the price of jet fuel/barrel for each year of the past 20 years. The airline can use this data to anticipate how much jet fuel will cost for a specific time of year and adjust their ticket prices accordingly. They can also use this data to change their purchasing strategy on jet fuel futures as to beat the market.

With known X=0, sd=1, and a limit calculating the probability of the process not achieving or achieving the desired limits (DPMO) With known mean, sd, and limit with known Z value (item 1) can convert to DPMO with known DPMO (item 2) can convert to Z-value Using the information to establish the business case and support the charter of a DMAIC to ensure we exceed the business goals.
