IASSC Certified Lean Six Sigma Black Belt (ICBB) — Question 76

An operator checks that all boxes being packed contain enough products to fill the box. However, each box getting filled has a different number of products in it.
This is a Reproducibility problem, not a Repeatability problem.

Answer options

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because Reproducibility refers to the ability to obtain consistent results across different settings, while Repeatability refers to obtaining consistent results under the same conditions. In this scenario, the variability in the number of products indicates a repeatability issue, not reproducibility.
