  1. Theoretical Basis of the Quality Movement – Part 1: Deming’s Fourteen Points Adapted from Ch. 1 and 2 from Statistical Quality Design and Control Authors: Devor, Chang and Sutherland and Ch. 1 of The Certified Quality Engineer Handbook, 3rd edition Presented by Dr. Joan Burtner, Certified Quality Engineer Associate Professor and Chair, Department of Industrial Engineering and Industrial Management Mercer University

  2. Brief Quality Time Line (before 1950) • 1900’s • Taylor • Mass inspection • Scientific Management • 1920’s • Shewhart • Statistical approach to process variation • Control charts • 1930’s • Mayo • Hawthorne studies for Western Electric Dr. Joan Burtner, Associate Professor of Industrial Engineering

  3. Brief Quality Time Line (1950 – 2000) • 1950’s • Deming and Juran established professional credentials • Deming emphasizes Top Management Responsibility • Statistically-based approach to quality • Acceptance sampling and process control charts became mandatory as part of the defense effort • 1980’s • Deming, Juran, Ishikawa and Taguchi are influential • US industrial leaders begin to embrace quality • Total Quality Management popular • Six Sigma introduced • Seven basic quality tools • 1990’s • Institutionalization of quality throughout the enterprise • Global marketplace – international standards (ISO) • Lean Manufacturing introduced Dr. Joan Burtner, Associate Professor of Industrial Engineering

  4. Deming’s Fourteen Points 1. Create constancy of purpose for the improvement of production or service • Improve the product or service • Plan for the future • Make a long-term commitment to quality • Strategies required to make profits in this quarter only are different from those needed to keep the company in business for the next 20 or 30 years Dr. Joan Burtner, Associate Professor of Industrial Engineering

  5. Deming’s Fourteen Points 2. Adopt the new philosophy • New Philosophy: We cannot accept the levels of errors that could be tolerated in the past. • We can no longer live with commonly accepted levels of delays, mistakes, defective material and defective workmanship. Dr. Joan Burtner, Associate Professor of Industrial Engineering

  6. Deming’s Fourteen Points 3. Cease dependence on mass inspection for quality control. • Instead, require statistical evidence that quality is built in. You can’t improve quality through inspection. • 100% inspection is like planning for defects. • In some cases, final inspection may still be required. Dr. Joan Burtner, Associate Professor of Industrial Engineering

  7. Deming’s Fourteen Points 4. End the practice of awarding business on the basis of price tag alone. • Improve the quality of incoming material. • Cultivate long term relationships with suppliers. • Reduce the number of supplier • Eliminate suppliers who cannot demonstrate statistical evidence of quality. Dr. Joan Burtner, Associate Professor of Industrial Engineering

  8. Deming’s Fourteen Points 5. Improve constantly & forever the system of production & service. • Continual reduction of waste • Find problems • Continual improvement of quality (adaptation of Deming cycle) • Work on the process instead of the product. Dr. Joan Burtner, Associate Professor of Industrial Engineering

  9. Deming’s Fourteen Points 6. Institute more through, better job-related training (modern methods of training). • Company supported (money and time) • Training management about the company, training about the customer’s needs, proper training for job. Dr. Joan Burtner, Associate Professor of Industrial Engineering

  10. Deming’s Fourteen Points 7. Adopt and institute leadership through modern methods of supervision. Supervisor’s job should be to coach workers, assist them in solving problems, not meeting quotas. Management must take immediate action on problems of defective parts, lack of maintenance on machines, etc. Dr. Joan Burtner, Associate Professor of Industrial Engineering

  11. Deming’s Fourteen Points 8. Drive Out Fear Eliminate fear in the workplace Fear will disappear as management improves and as employees develop confidence in management. Dr. Joan Burtner, Associate Professor of Industrial Engineering

  12. Deming’s Fourteen Points 9. Break down barriers between staff areas. Eliminate the “Over the wall” mentality. Coordinated effort, teamwork, teams of people in design, engineering, production, & sales. Dr. Joan Burtner, Associate Professor of Industrial Engineering

  13. Deming’s Fourteen Points 10. Eliminate slogans, goals, and targets for the workforce. • Don’t ask for new levels of productivity without providing methods. • The only goals that make sense are internal goals (personal motivation). Dr. Joan Burtner, Associate Professor of Industrial Engineering

  14. Deming’s Fourteen Points 11. Eliminate numerical quotas. Eliminate work standards a) Impossible for some, too easy for others, no clues for how to improve b) Replace with leadership. The only permissible number is a plain statement of fact for survival. Dr. Joan Burtner, Associate Professor of Industrial Engineering

  15. Deming’s Fourteen Points 12. Remove barriers to pride in workmanship. • Involve employees at all levels in the improvement process. • Supply workers with the proper tools, methods, materials. Dr. Joan Burtner, Associate Professor of Industrial Engineering

  16. Deming’s Fourteen Points 13. Institute a vigorous program of education, retraining, and self-improvement for everyone. Educated people learn new things more easily, are more easily trained for new job. People, like the process, should be continuously improving. Dr. Joan Burtner, Associate Professor of Industrial Engineering

  17. Deming’s Fourteen Points 14. Take action to accomplish the transformation. Create a management structure that supports these principles. • Top-down approach • Concurrent education and application • Willingness to change the system • Common mission and goals Dr. Joan Burtner, Associate Professor of Industrial Engineering
