A careful monitoring of process dispersion is necessary to get optimum output from any process. Control charts are very important process monitoring tools of Statistical Process Control toolkit. Interquartile range ( IQR ) is a famous dispersion measure that is used to monitor process dispersion in quality control literature. In this study, a set of auxiliary information‐based Shewhart‐type IQR charts are proposed for efficient monitoring of process dispersion under bivariate normal, t and gamma distributed processes. The control structures of the proposed charts are developed, and their performances are evaluated in terms of Average Time to Signal ( ATS ), Average Extra Quadratic Loss and Average Ratio to ATS . Comparisons are made among different charts to establish their superiorities for a quicker detection of process changes. An illustrative example is also provided to elaborate the procedural details of the proposed IQR charts using a real data set. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
