Purpose – The main objective of this paper is to present an approach for understanding the discrimination ability of the operators responsible for the final inspection at a metal structures’ production line in the automotive industry. Another important goal is to show how this type of analysis can help to improve the way quality inspectors carry out their daily activities. Design/methodology/approach – The methodology followed consisted in selecting a sample of 30 metal structures (15 conforming and 15 non-conforming), over a time period of two months, and then asking 10 quality inspectors to classify each of the structures. Afterwards the performance of the inspectors was analysed using Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) Analysis. F...
