The mission to progress the quality and productivity of products and services is spreading across the industry and services sectors. Statistical process control (SPC) is a methodology to monitor an ongoing process and to identify unusual patterns and to indicate the need for correction. The most common SPC tools to be used are control charts. Control charts indicate whether or not the process is stable and resulting quality improvement. Control charts help to distinguish between special and common causes of variation which may occur during manufacturing process and influence the quality of a product.

Globalizations and streamlined commerce have opened the entryway of worldwide open market rivalry that changed the organization of working together. Open rivalry has an extreme impact on neighborhood market makers and worldwide firms. From the earliest starting point, quality is considered as a pre-essential definitive component to choose items or administrations. Presently days, the associations put more into observing and improving the nature of the items to draw in more clients. Besides, the basic considering purchasers has changed now they request a higher caliber of items and administrations. Walter A. Shewhart (1920) presented the idea of Statistical Quality Control (SQC), which is a coordinator of the quality control field. The crucial target of SQC is to zero in on the nature of the assembling mechanism to accomplish the most noteworthy creation quality. As per Montgomery (2009) in statistical mechanism control, each made item is not the same as one and another due to normal inborn variety, however with unnoticeable variety. The vast majority of organizations are putting resources into the quality enhancements division to decrease squandered items. The decrease in changeability builds the benefit of association and fulfillment of clients by satisfying their needs. As observed from the shopper's conduct a high variety of items is unsuitable for them, consequently, the objective of associations is to create items by stable mechanism.

(Library Information Services, COMSATS University Islamabad, Lahore Campus, 2018) Muhammad Atif Kamal; SP16-RPM-002; Dr. Tajammal Hussain; LHR TP 5216
The phenomenon of knowledge management has been gaining the attention of researchers for quite a sometime. It is considered to be of abundant significance and have a potential in improving the establishment of organization management and productivity. Having acknowledged its significance, we aim at gauging the knowledge management practices and its contribution in the sustainability of the non-governmental organizations (NGOs) of Pakistan. Today, the non-governmental organizations (NGOs) are accepted to be an imperative sector that provides the public with social and environmental sanctuaries such as health, sanitation and water, employment, education and skill developments other than the government. Various NGOs of Pakistan have been playing a charitable role either with small scale projects or with the full paid professional projects. Being such an important influence for the common public, it is very important that these NGOs have the firm root and sustainability. Thus, the current research has been carried out to dig deep into; assessing the role of knowledge management in the social sustainable outcomes under the moderating role of organizational adaptable culture in the non-governmental organizations of Pakistan. For the purpose of gauging this role, we have developed the following two fundamental questions; 1) Does Knowledge Management play a positive role in the social sustainable outcomes? 2) Does adaptive work environment moderate the relationship that is to be seen between Knowledge Management (KM) and sustainability outcomes? For this study, the data were collected from project managers of 103 different NGOs of Pakistan. For our first question, it has been obtained that the performance outcomes are improved when the knowledge is managed in organization that is to say the knowledge management contributes to the sustainable outcomes. The relationship becomes weak in the absence of adaptable work environment. Regarding the second question, it has been obtained that the adaptable culture moderates the positive relationship that exists between knowledge management (KM) and sustainability. Also, in most of the NGOs, the adaptability is a commonly practiced norm.

(Library Information Services, COMSATS University Islamabad, Lahore Campus, 2021) Hasnain Khalid; FA11-RMS-018; Dr. Tajammal Hussain; LHR TP 7221
The notion of Employees' Wellbeing (EWB) is a vital factor that organizations need to understand and elevate to achieve a better work-related performance of their workforce. An employee who feels high wellbeing and experiences a low level of stress is expected to be relatively more satisfied, energetic, and productive. It is in the great interest of an organization to provide a supportive work culture that may enhance its employees' wellbeing. This study aimed to find that the employees' wellbeing is affected by the Quality-of-Worklife (QoWL) that banks provide to their employees. Further, it was to investigate whether the employees' job satisfaction mediates the proposed relationship between quality-of-life and employees' wellbeing. It was found that employees have a positive perception of the prevailing QoWL at their workplace. The statistical analyses suggest that the QoWL in the banking sector is of moderate to a high level. The multiple linear regression model's statistical results indicated that the employees' job satisfaction is strongly affected by the QoWL practice. Overall, QoWL practices have a positive and significant role in determining the level of job satisfaction. The multiple regression model analysis revealed a significant positive impact of the QoWL on employees' wellbeing. The employees' job satisfaction bridged the relationship between employees' wellbeing and employees' wellbeing. This study's outcomes cannot be generalized to the entire banking sector due to the relatively small sample size.

(Library Information Services, COMSATS University Islamabad, Lahore Campus, 2019) Muhammad Usman Aslam; FA17-RST-001; LHR TP 5742; Dr. Tajammal Hussain
With the passage of time and global development in the industrial world, the competition for the quality improvement of the manufactured product has also increased. To achieve the quality perfection goal the best utilized technique is quality control. The technique of quality control is merged with the statistical methods to obtain a reliable source for updating and improving the product’s quality and services, it also helps to maintain the actual quality standard. This combination of quality control with the statistical methods is called Statistical Quality Control (SQC). The concept of Statistical Quality Control (SQC) was introduced in 1924 by Dr. Shewhart who is well known as the father of quality control analysis. The principle objective of SQC is to focus on the quality of any organization and to achieve the optimum quality of production as well as services by using the sufficient statistical techniques. According to (Montgomery, 2009) any products quality depends upon its fittness for use and it is judged by the appropriate quality characteristics.
Some New Insights of Exponential Weighted Moving Average Control Chart with Fuzzy Control Lenses
(Library Information Services, COMSATS University Islamabad, Lahore Campus, 2018) Muhammad Javed; SP16-RST-001; LHR TP 5249; Dr. Tajammal Hussain
Statistical process control (SPC) is an approaching path that analyzes processes despite the fact whether they are under statistical control or out of control. So, Control charts are commonly employed for this purpose. Possibly, sample data may possess some uncertainties occurring owing to systems of measurement and conditions of the surrounding environment, for this purpose fuzzy numbers or language variables are usable to seize such form of uncertainties. Thereby, the well-known control charts, exponentially weighted moving average control chart (EWMA) to univariate data are formed up under the environment that is fuzzy one. The fuzzy EWMA control charts (FEWMA) are also usable in order to detect minute changes in the data presented by fuzzy numbers. FEWMA lessens various mistaken and unreliable decisions by catering further flexibleness upon the control limits. As far as the production process is monitored and controlled by dint of FEWMA control chart.
