Abstract

In the printing industry, maintaining product quality is a critical factor for ensuring customer satisfaction and competitive advantage. This study applies the Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (EWMA) control chart to monitor and control the quality of book production at CV Renjana Offset. Using secondary data from November 2023 to July 2024, the analysis focuses on the percentage of rejected products as a key indicator of quality performance. The EWMA method, with a smoothing constant of ? = 0.3, effectively highlights small shifts in the production process. Results show that all EWMA values lie within the control limits (UCL = 22.54%, LCL = 0.00%), indicating the process is statistically under control. Furthermore, comparison of different alpha values demonstrates the trade-off between sensitivity and stability. A moderate negative correlation (r = -0.505) between production volume and reject percentage suggests increased efficiency at higher production scales. The predicted reject percentage for August 2024 is 4.74%, indicating process stability. Overall, EWMA proves to be a valuable tool in continuous quality monitoring and data-driven decision-making in book production.
