Statistical Practice in Business and Industry
The practical application of statistics has fascinated statisticians for many years. Business and industrial processes are rich with information that can be used to understand, improve and change the way things are done. This book arose from the work carried out by members of the European Network for Business and Indus- trial Statistics (ENBIS) which was strengthened by a three-year thematic network called Pro-ENBIS funded by the European Commission under the Fifth Framework Programme (FP5). Contributions have been made by statistical practitioners from Europe and from other parts of the world. The aim of the book is to promote the wider understanding and application of contemporary and emerging statistical methods. The book is aimed at people working in business and industry world- wide. It can be used for the professional development of statistical practitioners (a statistical practitioner is any person using statistical methods, whether formally trained or not) and to foster best practice for the benefit of business and industry. This introductory chapter gives a brief description of ENBIS followed by an overview of the Pro-ENBIS project.
