Michael L. McDonald
Michael L. McDonald & Associates, Incorporated, was established in March, 2001 to service companies wanting to improve their product and service quality and improve their practices. Our services include Training and Continuing Support in Design and Quality Methods, including Statistical Process Control (SPC) Classes, and Taguchi Methodology Design of Experiments. Our courses are developed for Engineering, Quality, Production, Purchasing and Management employees, suppliers and customers.
The courses we offer are specifically designed to clearly teach application, so students leaving the class know how to think and what to do. Students will be able to recognize and apply proper statistical techniques and how to respond to a wide range of methods, statistics and graphical techniques. Our training philosophy does this by using dozens of case study examples for each statistical method:
to teach improvement opportunity and problem recognition,
to accurately define the situation under study
to use proper and appropriate data collection, analysis, and interpretation techniques, and
to permanently improve the product and process quality and working practices.
