Factors to control
Identifying which factors within the operation
are to be controlled
Giving enough control to significant factors and
eliminating from further considerations any
insignificant factors promote efficiency and
avoid waste of resources
Identification of Anticipated Results
Comparing actual and anticipated results
Importance of communicating actual and
expected performance levels (manager to
employee)
Measurement Devices
Measuring actual results before comparing
them with anticipated results
Performance standards
TQM: baseline goals
Application of Corrective Measures
Actual results are less than anticipated results
Authority of a manager or supervisor to take
corrective actions

Total Inspection:
Involves a complete inspection of each unit of work
produced by each employee
Quite desirable for certain types of office work (e.g.,
proofreading, arithmetical calculations, statistical data)
Zero defects:
Error prevention process which requires that employees do
their work correctly the first time
Involves more than identifying and correcting errors but
also motivating employees to do error-free work
Commitment and suggestions from employees
Spot Checking:
Involves periodic inspection of the work produced within a
unit
Frequently challenged since it does not use statistical
processes to determine how much, who, and when the
checks are to be made.
Intuition; subjective

Developed by Motorola
Allows no more than 3.4 defects per million units,
processes, or procedures subjected to measurement
Derived from standard deviation (one sigma: 68.3%, two
sigma: 95%, )
Employees must buy in to the concept; ongoing employee
commitment and teamwork are critical
As a process:
1. Identifying the area(s) that will be subject
2. Measuring present results to set benchmark
3. If below standard (3.4 defects per 1 million), causes of
the problem are determined
4. Designing quality improvement process
5. Once sully installed, continual, ongoing measurement
becomes critical
