Total quality management and tools

Definition of Quality

Quality is a predictable degree of uniformity and dependability, at low cost and suitable to the market (Deming)

Quality is fitness for use (Juran)

Quality is the conformance to requirements (Crosby)

Quality is the (minimum) loss imparted by a product to

society from the time the product is shipped. (Taguchi)

Why Quality

4

Managing quality supports differentiation, low cost, and response strategies

Quality helps firms increase sales and reduce costs

Building a quality organization is a demanding task

4

Ethics and Quality Management

5

Operations managers must deliver healthy, safe, quality products and services

Poor quality risks injuries, lawsuits, recalls, and regulation

Organizations are judged by how they respond to problems

Dimensions of Quality for Manufacturing Product

Performance: Product’s primary operating characteristics

Features: Secondary characteristics that supplement the products basic functioning

Reliability: The probability of a product’s surviving over a specified period of time under stated conditions of use

Durability: The amount of use one gets from a product before it physically deteriorates or until replacement is preferable.

Serviceability: The ability to repair a product quickly and easily

Aesthetics: How a product looks, feels, tastes, or smells

Service Quality Attributes

Timeliness: Will a service be performed when promised?

Completeness: Are all items in an order included?

Courtesy: Do front-line employees greet each customer cheerfully and politely.

Consistency: Are services delivered in the same fashion for every customer and every time for the same customers.

Accessibility and convenience: Is the service easy to obtain?

Accuracy: Are the services performed right the first time?

Responsiveness: Can the service personnel response quickly and resolve unexpected problem?

Quality Control

All those operational techniques and activities that are used to fulfill requirements for quality.

The objectives are:

(i) To ensure true expression/correct translation of stated and implied needs of the customers.

(ii) To monitor the process for realization of the product at various stages of its operations and eliminating causes of unsatisfactory performance at all stages of quality loop in order to achieve economic effectiveness.

(iii) Inspection of the product/service package to determine conformance to customer needs.

Quality Assurance

All the planned and systematic activities implemented within the organization for quality management, to provide adequate confidence that a product or service will satisfy given requirements for quality (ISO - International Organization for Standardization).

Quality assurance is a preventive activity and is therefore required to be systematically planned in advance.

The activity includes identification and planning of the checks, inspection, and control of processes as a part of quality control.

Quality assurance means establishment of a quality system which can demonstrate the capability of organization to satisfy the requirements of customers.

Quality assurance provides confidence internally to the management and external to the customers.

Costs of Quality: cost of doing this wrong

Prevention costs –costs to identify the cause of the defect, corrective action to eliminate the causes of failure, training, education, redesign the product or system, etc.

Appraisal costs – the costs of the inspection, testing to ensure the product/process is acceptable

Internal failure- yield losses (scrap), rework costs ( rework, repair)

External costs – defect is discovered after receiving the product or service; loss of customer goodwill, handling complaints, product repair, warranty replacements

Principles of Total Quality Management

TQM conveys a company-wide effort that includes all employees, suppliers, and customers, and that seeks to continuously improve the quality of products and processes to meet the needs and expectations of customers.

Deming’s 14 Principals to implement TQM

Create consistency of purpose

Lead to promote change

Build quality into the product; stop depending on inspections

Build long-term relationships based on performance instead of awarding business on price

Continuously improve product, quality, and service

Start training

Emphasize leadership

Drive out fear

Break down barriers between departments

Stop criticizing workers

Support, help, and improve

Remove barriers to pride in work

Institute education and self-improvement

Put everyone to work on the transformation

Continuous improvement

Six sigma

Employee empowerment

Benchmarking

Juts-in-time

Pareto chart identify the vital few and trivial many and highlights problems

that should be given attention. This is graphical picture of the relative

frequencies of different types of quality problem with the most frequent problem

type obtaining clear visibility.
