    In a sample of 50 custom stationary orders, 7 defects were found among the orders, including incomplete, damaged, incorrect, and typo issues. To calculate: DPU = total defects / total sample size = 7/50 = 0.14 defects per unit DPO = total defects / total opportunities = 7/200 = 0.035 defects per opportunity where each order has 4 opportunities DPMO = DPO * 1000000 = 0.035 * 1000000 = 35,000 defects per million opportunities to calculate the expected defects over producing 1,000,000 orders at this defect rate.

    Example of calculating DPU

    Your printing business prints custom stationary orders. Each order is considered a
    unit. Fifty orders are randomly selected and inspected and the following defects are
    found.
    Two orders are incomplete
    One order is both damaged and incorrect (2 defects)
    Three orders have typos

    Six of the orders have problems and there are a total of 7 defects out of the 50 orders
    sampled; therefore DPU = 7/50 = 0.14. On average, this is your quality level and each
    unit of product on average contains this number of defects.

    Example of calculating DPO

    Each custom stationary order could have four defects - incorrect, typo, damaged, or
    incomplete. Therefore, each order has four opportunities. Fifty orders are randomly
    selected and inspected and the following defects are found.
    Two orders are incomplete
    One order is both damaged and incorrect (2 defects)
    Three orders have typos

    Six of the orders have problems, and there are a total of 7 defects out of the 200
    opportunities (50 units * 4 opportunities / unit); therefore DPO = 7/200 = 0.035.

    Example of calculating DPMO

    Each custom stationary order could have four defects - incorrect, typo, damaged, or
    incomplete. Therefore, each order has four opportunities. Fifty orders are randomly
    selected and inspected and the following defects are found.
    Two orders are incomplete
    One order is both damaged and incorrect (2 defects)
    Three orders have typos

    There are a total of 7 defects out of the 200 opportunities. Therefore, DPO = 0.035
    and DPMO = 0.035 * 1000000 = 35,000. If your process remains at this defect rate
    over the time it takes to produce 1,000,000 orders, it will generate 35,000 defects.
