A quality improvement project was initiated in an industry that has seasonal demand for their product, coolers/ice chests, which are purchased/sold more frequently in the summer. The goal of the project is to increase sales. The project has reached the point where the team is developing their baseline measurement. Depicting a baseline measurement for this project is best facilitated by which quality improvement tool?A. HistogramB. Pareto chartC. SIPOC diagramD. Run chart

The correct answer is letter "A": Histogram.

Explanation:

A histogram is a visual representation of the data clustered in intervals. The data were extracted from quantitative variables. A histogram is used to obtain an understanding of the distribution of data or samples. Qualitative data can also be used but the amount of data must be large. This type of graph plots rectangular vertical bars with a proportional height of the intervals they cover.

Therefore, the project in the example can use a histogram to portrait its level of sales through the different seasons.
