description Contemporarily, enterprises strive to continuously enhance quality which is a basis of customer satisfaction. Numerous advancements to the control charting scheme have been made to enhance process monitoring. In this thesis, the variable parameters chart with auxiliary information (abbreviated as VP-AI) is proposed. The VP-AI chart is designed with a regression estimator that has an improved precision due to the use of auxiliary variable to estimate the population mean. By adopting the Markov chain method, the average time to signal (ATS) and expected ATS (EATS) formulae are derived for known and unknown shift sizes.
