Edwards Deming said:-

Adopt the new philosophy:

  • Design products and services to meet customers’ needs.
  • Put your customers’ needs first, rather than to competitive pressure.
  • Look at how the process is carried out – Not just numerical targets.
  • Provide support and resources so that production levels and quality are achievable.
  • Create your quality vision, and implement it – “Fit For Purpose” not cheap and nasty.
  • KEEP IT SIMPLE – REDUCE VARIATION – INCREASE PRODUCTION – INCREASE SALES

The key to quality improvement is; Quality Awareness, Quality Standards and Operator Training.

.

Quality Improvement and Awareness

Quality Improvement Procedures:

It is generally understood in management circles that if an instruction, procedure or drawing is written, then everyone will understand them – “This is not true” – Many procedures can and are “mis-read or not understood”

Temporary contract operators are expected to “do the job” and get the product quality right, without first being trained –

Procedures need to be SIMPLE to be understood…

.

SIMPLE Quality Procedures Implementation:

  • Standard Operation Procedures – to improve operator performance & quality.
  • Quality Standards – to improve Quality Awareness and customer satisfaction.
  • TPM Procedures – to improve up-time, production, productivity, profit.

IF IT’S RIGHT FIRST TIME – You Don’t Have To Pay for Repairs…
