    Current State: We have a tightened tolerance on the high & low side of a dimension and we do a finished good inspection on both the high & low end of that dimension (with Go/No-Go gauges). See screenshot. Desired State: Remove the tightened tolerance for the high end of that 9.64mm dimension...
