What is the aim of the measurement step in establishing a baseline?

• To create a new problem

• To collect data and develop a reference measure

• To ignore data

• To finalize the solution

Which of the following is a key action in the measurement step?

• Ignoring benchmark performance

• Identifying what to measure

• Disregarding reliable data

• Avoiding key metrics

When setting a goal what should it include?

• Vague and unattainable

• Specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-bound

• Irrelevant and time-consuming

• General and open-ended

Why is establishing a clear baseline important?

• It complicates the process

• It helps quantify improvements in later phases

• It makes goals irrelevant

• It prevents success measurement

What is the purpose of a data collection plan?

• To randomly gather data

• To ensure data is collected in a structured and consistent manner

• To avoid data collection

• To collect data without any specific method

Which of the following is a key element of a data collection plan?

• Ignoring data sources

• Defining what to measure

• Avoiding measurement methods

• Disregarding data storage

Why is a clear data collection plan important?

• It ensures data is inaccurate

• It makes data collection more confusing

• It ensures accurate, consistent, and reliable data

• It complicates decision-making

What is an operational definition?

• A vague description of data collection

• A detailed explanation of how data should be collected, measured, and recorded

• A summary of data results

• A method to ignore data discrepancies

Why is an operational definition important?

• It allows for random data collection

• It ensures consistent, meaningful, and actionable data

• It reduces the time needed for data collection

• It complicates the data collection process

What is the purpose of Measurement System Analysis (MSA)?

• To evaluate the precision and accuracy of measurement systems

• To increase the speed of data collection

• To reduce the cost of measurement tools

• To eliminate the need for human operators
