Poor Quality
Overview
For many organizations, quality-related costs go as high as 15 to 20
percent of their sales revenue, with some even going up to 40
percent of total operations. Ideally, for a company to thrive, cost of
poor quality should be 10 to 15 percent of the operation cost.
However, an effective quality management program can lower this
cost substantially.

So, how do we ensure that quality is measureable and
costfree? Measuring quality is measuring the requirements to get the
job done right the first time out. It requires the management to have
an agenda, communicating it clearly with defined goals and
measurements.
Here are 9 strategies that can help you lower your cost of poor
quality
One way to cut down your costs of poor quality is to improve the
visibility into your product quality, as well as the processes involved
in manufacturing and distributing your product. Without good
traceability in products and processes, organizations are more
susceptible to product delays, defects, and recalls, and process
breaches. Additionally, ensuring clear product and process
traceability helps you shorten the time to track down root causes
and identify the stage at which the defect was caused.
To make sure that your employees and suppliers are up-to-date with
relevant policies, contracts, SOWs, SOPs, guidelines, regulations, and
other such documents, you need to be able to store them in a
centralized location with applicable access rights.
