A manufacturing company has been inspecting units of output from a process. Each product inspected is evaluated on five criteria’s. If the unit does not meet standards for the criteria it counts as a defect for the unit. Each unit could have a few as zero defects, and as many as five. After inspecting 2,000 units, they discover 33 defects.
What is the DPMO measure for this process? (Round to nearest whole number)

- A credit card company deals with many hundreds of thousands of transactions every week. One of its measures of the quality of service it gives its customers is the dependability with which it mails customers’ monthly accounts. The quality standard it sets itself is that accounts should be mailed within two days of the ‘nominal postdate’ which is specified to the customer. Every week the company samples 1,000 customer accounts and records the percentage which was not mailed within the standard time. When the process is working normally, only 2 per cent of accounts are mailed outside the specified period, that is, 2 per cent are ‘defective’.
