Deming’s 14 points • Create constancy of purpose toward improvement of product and service. • Adopt the new philosophy. • Cease dependence on inspection to achieve quality. • End the practice of awarding business on the basis of a price tag. • Improve constantly and forever the system of production and service.

The aim of supervision should be to help people and machines and gadgets to do a better job. • Drive out fear, so that everyone may work effectively for the company. • Break down barriers between departments. • Eliminate slogans, exhortations, and targets for the work force asking for zero defects and new levels of productivity.
Deming’s 14 points • Eliminate work standards (quotas) on the factory floor. • Eliminate management by objectives • Remove barriers that rob the hourly worker of his right to pride of workmanship • Abolishment of annual or merit rating • Institute a vigorous program of education and self-improvement • Put everybody in the company to work to accomplish the transformation.
Profound Knowledge • Appreciation for a system • Understanding of variation • Theory of knowledge • experience • theory • Psychology
Systems • Most organizational processes are cross-functional • Parts of a system must work together • Every system must have a purpose • Management must optimize the system as a whole
Variation • Many sources of uncontrollable variation exist in any process • Excessive variation results in product failures, unhappy customers, and unnecessary costs • Statistical methods can be used to identify and quantify variation to help understand it and lead to improvements
Theory of Knowledge • Knowledge is not possible without theory • Experience alone does not establish a theory, it only describes • Theory shows cause-and-effect relationships that can be used for prediction
Psychology • People are motivated intrinsically and extrinsically; intrinsic motivation is the most powerful • Fear is demotivating • Managers should develop pride and joy in work
7 Deadly Diseases • Lack of constancy of purpose • Emphasis on short-term profits • Evaluation of performance, merit rating, or annual review of performance • Mobility of management • Running a company on visible figures alone • Excessive medical costs for employee • Excessive costs of warranty, fueled by lawyers who work on the basis of contingency fees
Question • Deming believed poor quality rested with management rather than the worker. Would you agree? Why or why not?

Feigenbaum • Four Deadly Sins • Hothouse quality • Wishful thinking • Producing overseas • Confining quality to the factory
Ishikawa • Quality begins & ends with education. • The first step in quality is to know the requirements of the customer. • The ideal state of quality control occurs when inspection is no longer necessary. • Remove the root cause, not the symptoms. • Quality control is the responsibility of all workers and all divisions. • Do not confuse the means with the objectives.
Ishikawa • Put quality first and set your sights on long-term profits. • Marketing is the entrance and exit of quality. • Top management must not show anger when facts are presented by subordinates. • 95% of problems in a company can be solved with simple tools for analysis and problem-solving. • Data without dispersion information (variability) is false data.
