In practice, Phase I analysis constitutes an integral part of an overall SPC program in which control charts play a crucial role. An overview of the literature on Phase I parametric control charts for univariate variables data is presented. Since the Phase I signaling events are dependent and multiple signaling events are to be dealt with simultaneously in making an in-control or out-of-control decision, the joint distribution of the charting statistics is used to control the false alarm probability, which is defined as the probability of at least one false alarm, while designing the charts. An example is given. Concluding remarks include suggestions regarding future research problems.
