In this paper, a synthetic control chart is proposed by integrating the salient features of the np(x) chart and the CRL chart. The synthetic chart achieves higher detection effectiveness on both small and large mean shifts while retaining the operational simplicity of the attribute charts owing to only using attribute inspection. Both statistical and economic design of the synthetic chart are considered and numerical tests have indicated that the synthetic chart has a higher power for detecting mean shifts than the np(x) chart, MON chart and CUSUM chart. In addition, sensitivity analyses are also performed under both the statistical and economic design model.
