Hi,

The term again arppears in one on the cells of a large table I am translating presently . There is no other context as its an independent check item

English translation:Quality fluctuation (or variation)
Explanation:
I'm pretty sure this is an abbreviation of 品質バラツキ。This is an important part of manufacturing process control in both Lean and Six Sigma process improvement and quality control methodologies, and it's a common component of statistical process control charts. Google the term, you'll find the full term used in the exact same context that you mentioned. Reference: http://asq.org/learn-about-quality/data-collection-analysis-...

FYI, "fluctuation/variation in quality" is another way to word this same concept.

segment / item


Explanation:
Probably 工程能力達成率 refers to a production line segment's operating rate against the capacity (言い換えれば「工程稼働率」) and 品バラ refers to "each segment" of the line or an item produced in the segment.
