Å.6.1. Data Analysis and Supplier Selection
For the step1 of supplier selection, the practitioner should input the minimum requirement of and the minimum difference for two candidates. And in the step2, we decided the sample size based on the minimum requirement, the minimum difference and the selection power we need. In this application, the upper specification limit was 1500 Å, the lower specification limit was 1100 Å and the target value was 1300 Å. The minimum requirement for ITO product was 0.8 and the minimum difference of is 0.06 between two candidates with selection power 0.95.
By checking the preset table (Tables 7-8) with the data, we had to take 301 samples for the difference statistics and 282 samples for the ratio statistics. In the case, we took 310 samples for S1 and S2 respectively.

We display the histogram of 310 samples for S1 and S2 in Figures 9-10 and the normal probability in Figures 11-12 (the data of two suppliers were tabulated in Tables 15-16 in Appendix C). Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was also used to check whether the two suppliers’ data is normal in the step3. The statistic d for supplier 1 was 0.02916 and for supplier 2 is 0.02879. Because of the p-value with two suppliers are greater than 0.05, we didn’t reject the null hypothesis that the data was normally distributed. So we considered that the sample data for two suppliers could be regarded as taken form normal processes. Then the sample means, sample standard deviations and sample estimators for S1 and S2 were calculated and summarized in Table 9. Based on the selection procedure of step4, we executed the Matlab program to obtain the LCB for difference between two suppliers is

7. Conclusions
Supplier selection is more and more important in today’s modern quality improvement theory and customers consider many factors before they choose the supplier. Quality yield is a flexible index because it compares the quality of different characteristics of a product on a single percentage scale, and indicates how close a product comes to meeting 100% customer satisfaction in quality. Unlike the traditional process capability indices, the normality assumption isn’t needed in using quality yield. We use the quality yield to compare two suppliers and give customers a reference of supplier’s information for process capability in this study. q

In this research, we first reviewed the process capability indices, process yield, process loss and quality yield. By comparing these indices, we indicated the advantages of and applied it in the supplier selection. Because the sample distributions of the difference and the ratio in are mathematically intractable, the nonparametric is computationally intensive but an effective estimation bootstrap method is applied to two Q-yield measures

q− and to compare the error probability and the selection power. In the error test, we compared the error mean, error standard deviation and occurrences out of the 25 cases. The selection power was compared in the designated sample size with on-target case we selected.
We finally chose the BCPB method after comparing the performance of simulation in four methods. For convenience of application, we used this method and tabulate the sample size required for various designated selection power with our selecting and showed the supplier selection steps. Then we presented a real example on the ITO glass manufacturing process to illustrate the sample size information and distinguish which supplier had a better process capability with these steps. In this paper, we did these works under the normal distribution. We may apply the bootstrap method to other distributions based on different product characteristics in the future research.
