tailieunhanh - Optimization of Cost by Using 7 QC Tools

Abstract Quality plays very important role in today’s highly competitive industrial environment. Quality leads to an improvement in productivity. By improving quality, the method of optimization reduces process operational costs and variation in product. Quality, productivity & cost of operation relatively depended to each other. The main goals of quality management are customer satisfaction by delivery of defect free products at quality cost. Controlled processes are the most important ways to reach this goal. . | International Journal of Engineering Studies ISSN 0975- 6469 Volume 1 Number 3 2009 pp. 149-160 Research India Publications http Optimization of Cost by Using 7 QC Tools Nitin K.

Quality leads to an improvement in productivity. By improving quality the method of optimization reduces process operational costs and variation in product. Quality productivity cost of operation relatively depended to each other. The main goals of quality management are customer satisfaction by delivery of defect free products at quality cost. Controlled processes are the most important ways to reach this goal. The primary objective of quality control in any organization is to reduce the costs of its operation. If control efforts do not lead to any saving in costs or cost reduction then in principle there is no need for quality control. However in most control activities cost saving are real and they remain a principle objective of quality control for most organizations. Keywords Quality quality control cost optimization inspection. Introduction to quality control Many companies in the world are gradually promoting quality as the central customer value and regard it as a key concept of company strategy in order to achieve the competitive edge. Quality improvement decisions are viewed as the catalyst for substantial technological developments being made in the manufacturing sector. Quality Costs are a measure of the costs specifically associated with the achievement or non-achievement of product or service quality -including all product or service requirements established by the company and its contract with customers and society. .
