Allise Wachs

Dr. Allise Wachs has 30 years of experience in the application of statistical methods to optimize product designs and manufacturing processes—and to assess product liability risk. Her research includes the development of mathematical models to reveal optimal decision sequences. She is the President of Integral Concepts, Inc. where she assists engineers and scientists in the application of statistical and optimization methods to reduce the time and cost to develop new products and optimize manufacturing processes.  She also helps to resolve complex engineering and manufacturing problems quickly and thoroughly.

Her areas of expertise include designed experimentation, reliability analysis, general statistical methods, statistical process control, measurement system assessment, and stochastic optimization. She has been an adjunct professor in the College of Engineering at the University of Michigan, and she provides expert testimony in product liability litigation.

Dr. Wachs possesses a Ph.D. in Operations Research, an M.S. in Industrial and Operations Engineering, an M.A. in Statistics, and a B.S in Mathematics & Statistics, all from the University of Michigan.  She also completed all required coursework for a Ph.D. in Statistics at the University of Chicago and the University of Michigan.


Design of Experiments logoThe Design of Experiments Course

Allise has built a comprehensive online, self-paced course covering the basics and advanced application of the critical tools to screen, understand, and optimize your designs or processes.

The course includes lectures, quizzes, exercises, and Allise’s ongoing support to answer your questions and help you learn and apply the Design of Experiments methods in your situation.

Check out the course outline, learning objectives, and scope of topics, then start today mastering the power techniques called Design of Experiments.


The Integral Concepts article series

 

This article series explores essential concepts and methods for deploying Statistical Process Control (SPC) and Design of Experiments (DOE) effectively in your production operation.  The articles focus on essential concepts as well as important topics that are often not covered in basic SPC or DOE training programs.  Some related statistical methods are also covered in a few of the articles

Check out the article series today.
