Process Capability Analysis

I am doing my Master's in Industrial Engg. At this moment I am working as an intern at a plating company. I would like to perform capability analysis on thickness measured during gold plating process. They use X-ray fluorescence instrument. At the same time I would like to check the repeatabilty and reproduceability. IS it worth doing it or is there anything else which I can do?

One other thing is instrument stability. Keep track of the readings of the standard prior to calibration.
