Statistical process control (SPC) focuses on monitoring production processes to ensure they remain within acceptable limits. In data-driven decision making, SPC uses control charts and statistical measures to detect variation and identify whether a process is operating as intended.

For a drill manufacturer, determining whether the weight of selected drills is within a tolerable range is a classic SPC activity. Consistent weight indicates stable materials and manufacturing processes, while deviations may signal defects or process drift.

Market segmentation and demand forecasting are strategic analytics tasks, not process control activities. Collaborative planning forecasting and replenishment relates to supply chain coordination rather than manufacturing quality control.

Therefore, the correct answer is B, as SPC is concerned with maintaining process consistency and product quality.
