Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

DPMO (Defects per Million Opportunities) is calculated as the number of defects divided by the total number of opportunities for those defects to occur, multiplied by one million. In this equation, OFD (Opportunities for Defects) per unit is equivalent to the total number of opportunities for defects to occur in one unit of output. Therefore, DPMO = number of defects / (OFD per unit)(number of units).
