1. Total Quality Management
• Encompasses entire organization, from
supplier to customer
• Stresses a commitment by management to
have a continuing, companywide drive
toward excellence in all aspects of products
and services that are important to the
customer
2. The Quality Hierarchy
Whole Operation
Quality as strategy
Team & empower
Quality as systems
& controls
Problem solving
Standards
Sampling
Checking
Error detection
Rectification
3. The Quality Hierarchy
Inspection
• The ad – hoc physical check of products or
goods or services to establish their
compliance to specification
• “Quality” introduced after the production
of the goods or services
• Does not examine cause and effect of
poor quality
• Done by remote third party
– Does not empower or make quality
part of the producers responsibility
• Requires physical intervention
• Limited to checking and proving that item
only
– Defects are easily missed unless
100% checking or sampling
techniques applied
• Often limited to the sensitivity of the
testing process or ‘testability’ of the
characteristics under examination
Quality control
• The systematic checking of outputs from
or during a productive process
• “Quality” introduced after the production
of the goods or services
– More systematic
• Still done by remote third party
• Requires physical intervention
• Limited to checking and proving that item
only
– Defects are easily missed unless
100% checking or sampling
techniques applied
• Often limited to the sensitivity of the
testing process or ‘testability’ of the
characteristics under examination
4. The Quality Hierarchy
Assurance
• A practical implementation of a total
quality approach
– Requires total company commitment
• Strategic quality principle
– Requires total company commitment
• Quality introduced at the outset and
throughout the process
– Builds quality in
• Quality becoming the responsibility of the
producer
• Quality as part of the process
• Administered and policed by remote third
party
Total Quality Management (TQM)
• A total company approach to quality
• Strategic top down strategy
– Used when quality is a key
competitive advantage
• As much a philosophy as a technique
– Customer is king
– Build in rather than inspect in
– Empowerment of the producer
• Demming as pioneer
• Japanese as exemplars of approach

6. Total Quality Management Concepts
Continuous Improvement
Represents continual improvement of all
processes
Involves all operations and work centers
including suppliers and customers
People, Equipment, Materials, Procedures
8. Total Quality Management Concepts
Six Sigma
Two meanings
Statistical definition of a process that is
99.9997% capable, 3.4 defects per million
opportunities (DPMO)
A program designed to reduce defects, lower
costs, and improve customer satisfaction
10. Total Quality Management Concepts
Six Sigma
• Black Belt
– project leader
• Master Black Belt
– a teacher and mentor
for Black Belts
• Green Belts
– project team members
12. Total Quality Management Concepts
Employee Empowerment
Getting employees involved in product and
process improvements
85% of quality problems are due
to process and material
Techniques
Build communication networks
that include employees
Develop open, supportive supervisors
Move responsibility to employees
Build a high-morale organization
Create formal team structures
13. Total Quality Management Concepts
Benchmarking
Selecting best practices to use as a standard
for performance
1. Determine what to
benchmark
2. Form a benchmark team
3. Identify benchmarking partners
4. Collect and analyze benchmarking
information
5. Take action to match or exceed the
benchmark
14. Total Quality Management Concepts
Just In Time (JIT)
Relationship to quality:
JIT cuts the cost of quality
JIT improves quality
Better quality means less inventory
and better, easier-to-employ JIT
system
15. Total Quality Management Concepts
Just In Time (JIT)
‘Pull’ system of production scheduling including
supply management
Allows reduced inventory levels
Inventory costs money and hides process and material problems
Encourages improved process and product
quality
16. Total Quality Management Concepts
Just In Time (JIT)
Scrap

17. Total Quality Management Concepts
Just In Time (JIT)
Reducing inventory reveals
problems so they can be solved
Scrap

Vendors
Capacity Imbalances
18. Total Quality Management Concepts
Taguchi Concepts
Engineering and experimental design
methods to improve product and process
design
Identify key component and process variables
affecting product variation
Taguchi Concepts
Quality robustness
Quality loss function
Target-oriented quality
19. Total Quality Management Concepts
Quality Robustness
Ability to produce products uniformly in
adverse manufacturing and
environmental conditions
Remove the effects of adverse conditions
Small variations in materials and process
do not destroy product quality
20. Total Quality Management Concepts
Quality Loss Function
Shows that costs increase as the
product moves away from what the
customer wants
Costs include customer dissatisfaction,
warranty and service, internal
scrap and repair, and costs to society
Traditional conformance specifications
are too simplistic

Statistical Process Control (SPC)
Uses statistics and control charts to tell when
to take corrective action
Drives process improvement
Four key steps

When a change is indicated, find the assignable cause
Eliminate or incorporate the cause
Restart the revised process
34. Total Quality Management Tools
Inspection
Involves examining items to see if an
item is good or defective
Detect a defective product

or product
It is expensive
Issues

Service quality is more difficult to
measure than the quality of goods
Service quality perceptions depend on
Intangible differences between products
Intangible expectations customers have of
those products

recognize:
1. The tangible component of services is
important
2. The service process is important
3. The service is judged against the
customer’s expectations
4. Exceptions will occur
46. Total Quality Management in Service
