In many of these applications the measurement of the variable of interest is costly and/or destructive but a small number of sampling units can be ranked easily by using expert-opinion knowledge or inexpensive and easily obtained measurements from these units. In this paper, we construct tolerance intervals based on the expensive measurements that are obtained using randomized nomination sampling (RNS) with the help of inexpensive auxiliary information.

The efficiency of the constructed RNS-based tolerance intervals compared to their SRS counterparts is discussed. We investigate the performance of RNS-based tolerance intervals for different values of the design parameters and various population shapes. We find the values of the design parameters which improve RNS over SRS. The RNS design in presence of ranking error is discussed and a new method for estimating ranking error probabilities is proposed.
