Quality Control
• Although emphasis should be doing things right the first time, examination is necessary because the goals may not have been met
• Primary purpose of quality control is to prevent nonconforming products from being shipped to the customer
Chapter 12 3
Problems with Quality Control• Examination is not enforced• Examination process is not effective• Examination equipment is faulty• Examiners are not effective• Product requirements are not clear• Poor examination environment• Poor control of nonconforming product• Defect information not collected• Fails to take human side into account

The Golden Rule
Chapter 12 5
Examination Techniques
• Observing products– Measurement, individual review, peer review,
and quality system audit
• Operating products– Testing is done by different people– Testing is conducted at different levels– Testing can be destructive– Testing is not a trivial topic
Chapter 12 6
Examining Requirements
• Some major issues to be examined– Clarity and accuracy– Completeness– Consistency– Feasible
• For custom product, the customer can be asked to examine the requirements
Chapter 12 7
Receiving Inspection
• Incoming products are examined using the following process– All products
• Visual inspection
– Custom and critical products• Scope depends of status of subcontractor
– Control of Products• Inspection status identified at each stage of
production
Chapter 12 8
In-Process Inspection
• Every task should be followed by inspection
• Sampling frequency– 100% inspection in early phases of production– Sometimes random sampling utilized
Chapter 12 9
Final Examination
• The create stage for producing a car consists of four subprocesses: specify, design, create, and examine. The last of these subprocesses answers the question “is the car defect free?” It does not directly address the question, “does the car provide what the cutomer wants?”
Chapter 12 10
Examining Goods
• Examining subcontractor products– Overall quality depends on component quality
• Measuring devices– All measuring devices need to be calibrated
properly
• Inspection– Random sampling or 100% inspection
Chapter 12 11
Examining Services• Problems:
– High subjectivity on part of customer– High variability of service– Lack of service attitude by customers– Lack of experience by customers
• Root causes:– Service process not defined– Services standards lacking– Employee training poor– Quality control not embedded into process
