Abstract: A method to be performed in a production support system configured to process a raw material and to produce a product. And the method includes: acquiring a plurality of element values relating to production elements of the product; determining whether the element values are within allowable ranges in which a quality of the product meets a predetermined allowed quality; resetting the allowable ranges of one or a plurality of other element values to the allowable ranges in which the quality of the product meets the predetermined allowed quality, upon determining that at least one element value exceeds the allowable range; and outputting information about the reset allowable ranges.

Abstract: A quality stabilization system includes a design system unit and an execution system unit. The design system unit is configured to extract a feature amount indicating a time transition of operation data which is data related to a plurality of production elements of a product in a section in which there is likelihood of an influence on quality of the product from the operation data, generate an evaluation index, and define running maintenance improvement information from the evaluation index. The execution system unit is configured to monitor the operation data related to the product to be produced and supply reference information referred to in decision-making of a worker using the running maintenance improvement information when the execution system unit has detected that the quality of the product is likely to deviate from an allowable range of the evaluation index.
