that are received and the potential influences that cause variance in the results of the observed phenomenon, in this case the filling of the bathtub. The basic approach may
be seen as a philosophy rather than a model, with the measurement of the process collecting data at different points of the process. The process is one that is often
used in manufacturing, so that any variances in the processes may be identified at an early point and the potential knock on effect through the rest of the manufacturing process
minimised as well as rectifying the problem at an early stage (Pitt, 1994). When undertaking this, if the process is running a
bath and a variance arises early in the process then the cause of the variance may be identified and then action taken is necessary and possible to bring the performance
of the process back into the desired range. The tools used include the use of charts. Flow charts can be used to identify that process that is being undertaken
in a stage by stage manner, this is useful in helping to determine what measures should be undertaken at which points in the process, as well as the areas where
there may be variability. This will also help to identify the way that resources are used; in this case there is only the action of turning on a tap, and
turning off a tap for the filling of the bath (Pitt, 1994). It is assumed that this is all that is being measured. However, depending on how the task is
defined this may also include the need to check for the presence of a plug and to ensure that the plug is secure in the plug hole. This is similar
