Usage of Beta Binomial Distribution in Manufacturing - reference to JMP Help Info?

In JMP help under Discrete Fit Distributions, the following is mentioned:

Beta Binomial

This distribution is useful when the data is a combination of several Binomial(p) distributions, each with a different p. One example is the overall number of defects combined from multiple manufacturing lines, when the mean number of defects (p) varies between the lines.
 
Does anyone has a reference, article, supporting this statement?
Kind regards
