Identify how the process inputs (Xs) affect the process outputs (Ys). Data are analyzed to understand the magnitude of contribution of each root cause (X) to the project metric (Y). Statistical tests using p-values accompanied by Histograms, Pareto charts, and line plots are often used to do this.
Clinical data management (CDM) is a critical process in clinical research, which leads to generation of high-quality, reliable, and statistically sound data from clinical trials. [1] Clinical data management ensures collection, integration and availability of data at appropriate quality and cost.
encouraging documentation process standards, such as the creation of well-defined engineering documents using standard templates; mentoring how to conduct standard processes, such as quality reviews; performing in-process test data recording procedures; identifying standards, if any, that should be used in software development processes
The background for the LM describes why misusing metrics is becoming a larger problem in the scientific community. The journal impact factor, originally created by Eugene Garfield as a method for librarians to collect data to facilitate selecting journals to purchase, is now mainly used as a method of judging journal quality.

Traditional six sigma methodology, DMAIC, has become a standard process optimization tool for the chemical process industries. However, it has become clear that [ weasel words ] the promise of six sigma, specifically, 3.4 defects per million opportunities (DPMO), is simply unachievable after the fact.
Appraisal teams use a CMMI model and ARC-conformant appraisal method to guide their evaluation of the organization and their reporting of conclusions. The appraisal results can then be used (e.g., by a process group) to plan improvements for the organization.
Research has demonstrated that organizational effectiveness is a direct function of the decision-making criteria and goal-centered activities embedded in processes [5] and implicitly, a process-based approach to project management. Project life cycles come out of this process approach to project management.
COBIT (Control Objectives for Information and Related Technologies) is a framework created by ISACA for information technology (IT) management and IT governance. [1]The framework is business focused and defines a set of generic processes for the management of IT, with each process defined together with process inputs and outputs, key process-activities, process objectives, performance measures ...
