Our Bayesian dynamic programming model builds on existing models to account for inspection delay, choice of keeping production going during inspection and/or restoration, and lot sizing. We focus on describing how dynamic statistical process control (DSPC) rules can improve on traditional,...

Models in which process quality and lot sizing interact have recently been developed. Lot sizes should be reduced to compensate for poor quality if no effective inspection is possible. This note introduces an inspection delay time, measured in units produced after an inspection is made until...
