Quality by Design (QbD) is a systematic approach for building quality into a product. The Design Space Profiler, new within the Prediction Profiler in JMP 17, helps solve the fundamental QbD problem of determining an optimal operating region that assures quality as defined by specifications associated with critical quality attributes (CQAs) while still maintaining flexibility in production.
We explain JMP’s approach to solving this difficult problem and demonstrate how to use the Design Space Profiler to find these optimal subregions of the design space. The Prediction Profiler in JMP has long been a powerful tool for visualizing and optimizing models; having the Design Space Profiler within the Prediction Profiler makes it an indispensable tool for high-quality product and process innovation.
