DEMINGS SPC
Continuous improvement of products and services to meet

customers needs .tools are SPC and problem-solving

techniques.
Management is responsible for change.
Breakdown of department and worker-supervisor barrier.
Change the systems , operations to reduce common / systematic
causes.

INCORPORATION OF SPC
Statistical process control , a probability method by Walter shewart.
Probability rules could determine whether variation was random or

not.

IMPLICATIONS
Once the process was in control, readings fell outside the limits

indicated a problem to be investigated.

To improve the system itself , common causes had to be
removed.

JURAN
Joseph M. Juran's impact on Japanese Quality was usually considered

second only to Demings.

He established Juran Institute in 1979 for seminars, consulting and
conferences.
His clients were:
Texas Instruments
Du Pont
Monsanto
Xerox
DEFINITION BY JURAN
Juran defined quality as fitness for use
The users of a product or service should be able to count on it for they
needed to do with it.

FIVE DIMENSIONS OF FITNESS FOR USE

Quality of design
Quality of conformance

Availability
Safety
Field Use

JURANS APPROACHES
Comprehensive approach : Vendor relations, manufacturing control,
distribution and field service
Reliability: find effects & causes of failures and develop solutions for
them.
Analytical Methods: identify areas needing improvements and
implement changes.
Cost of Quality: cost of making, finding, and repairing.

JURANS APPROACHES FOR MAINTAINING

MINIMUM COST OF QUALITY
Breakthrough Projects
The control Sequence
Annual Quality Programs

Juan's Categories of Quality Costs

A. Internal failure costs
(Scrap, rework, retest, down time, yield loses, disposition)
B. External failure costs
(Complaint adjustment, Returned material, Warranty charges,
Allowances)
C. Appraisal costs
Incoming materials inspection, Inspection and test, accuracy test
equipments, evaluation of stocks, materials and service consumed)
D. Prevention Costs
Quality planning, product review, training, process control, Quality data
acquisition and analysis, quality reporting, improvement projects)

JURANS BREAKTHROUGH SEQUENCE

Breakthrough in attitudes
2. Identify the vital few projects
3. Organize for breakthrough in knowledge
Two organizational entities
A. Steering group
B. Diagnostic group
4. Conduct the analysis
5. Determine how to overcome resistance to change
6. Institute the change
7. Institute the controls

CROSBY
He sought to change management perception and attitudes about

quality ( typically top managers viewed quality as intangible or else to

be found only in high end products)
If quality were improved, total costs would inevitably fall, allowing
companies to increase profitability
His goal was quality improvement rather than after the fact inspection
He came up with a quality management maturity grid for which was
used for self-assessment and offered a 14 point program for quality
improvement (this program was designed for securing management
commitment and gaining employees involvement through actions
such as zero defects day

CROSBYS 14-POINT PROGRAM

Management commitment
Quality improvement team
Quality measurement
Cost of quality evaluation
Quality awareness
Corrective action
Zero defects planning
Supervisor training
Zero defects day
Goal setting
Error cause removal
Recognition
Quality councils
Do it all over again
