Definition:Total Quality Management • Total Quality Management (TQ, QM or TQM) and Six Sigma (6) are sweeping “culture change” efforts to position a company for greater customer satisfaction, profitability and competitiveness. • TQM may be defined as managing the entire organization so that it excels on all dimensions of products and services that are important to the customer.
Quality Descriptions Design Quality (Features) vs. Conformance Quality
Conformance Quality • Meeting Our Customer’s Requirements • Doing (the Right) Things Right the First Time; Freedom from Failure (Defects) • Consistency (Reduction in Variation) • Continuous Improvement • Quality in Everything We Do
Quality Management History • Frederick Winslow Taylor wrote Principles of Scientific Management in 1911 • Walter A. Shewhart used statistics in quality control and inspection, and showed that productivity improves when variation is reduced (1924); wrote Economic Control of Manufactured Product in 1931 • W. Edwards Deming and Joseph M. Juran, students of Shewhart, went to Japan in 1950; began transformation from “shoddy” to “world class” goods • In 1960, Dr. K. Ishikawa formalized “quality circles” - the use of small groups to eliminate variation and improve processes • In the late ‘70’s and early 80’s: - Deming returned from Japan to write Out of the Crisis, and began his famous 4-day seminars in the United States - Phil Crosby wrote Quality is Free - NBC ran “If Japan can do it, why can’t we?” - Motorola began 6 Sigma
Quality Management History “On the assembly line at the Ford Motor Company in 1923, most of the workers producing Model T’s were immigrants and could not speak English. Many were also illiterate. Workers learned their trade by modeling the actions of other workers. They were unable to plan, problem-solve, and make decisions. As a result, the Taylor scientific school of management flourished, and MBAs and industrial engineers were invented to do this work. Today, however, the workforce is educated. Workers know what is needed to improve their jobs, and companies that do not tap into this significant source of knowledge will truly be at a competitive disadvantage.” Joseph M. Juran (1991)
Quality Management History “Knowledge-worker productivity is the biggest of the 21st-century management challenges. In the developed countries, it is their first survival requirement. In no other way can the developed countries hope to maintain themselves, let alone to maintain their leadership and their standards of living.” Peter F. Drucker (1999)

A Quality Management System Is… • A belief in the employee’s ability to solve problems • A belief that people doing the work are best able to improve it • A belief that everyone is responsible for quality
Quality Management History Deming’s Concept of “Profound Knowledge” • Understanding (and appreciation) of Systems - optimizing sub-systems sub-optimizes the total system - the majority of defects come from systems, the responsibility of management (e.g., machines not in good order, defective material) • Knowledge of Statistics (variation, capability, uncertainty in data, etc.) - to identify where problems are, and point managers and workers toward solutions • Knowledge of Psychology (Motivation) - people are afraid of failing and not being recognized, so they fear how data will be used against them • Theory of Knowledge - understanding that management in any form is a prediction, and is based on assumptions
Elements for Success • Management Support/Involvement • Mission Statement • Proper Planning • Customer and Bottom Line Focus • Measurement • Empowerment/Shared Leadership • Teamwork/Effective Meetings • Continuous Process Improvement • Dedicated Resources/Training
Benchmarking 1. Identify those processes needing improvement. 2. Identify a firm that is the world leader in performing the process (Library & WWW). 3. Contact the managers of that company and make a personal visit to interview managers and workers. 4. Analyze data

Why Dirt? Environment • Dust/Humidity • Poor Lighting • Space Limitations Measurement • QA Manager Fixes Some Things Without Informing the Technicians Methods • Need to Rinse Parts off after Sandblasting • Need Better Procedure for Determining What to Remanufacture Based on its Condition Machines • Best tools for $$? Materials • Cleaning Compounds watered down • Need Larger Wire Brushes People • Need More Training • More Attention to Detail – Do it Right the First Time
Why Leaks? Environment • High Temperatures in Warehouse • Poor Lighting Materials • Bad Tubing • “O” Rings Out of Spec • “O” Rings Too Old (Dry) Machines • Bad Dispenser Design • Need Rims That Make it Easier to Install Tubing People • Use Wrong Clamps • Don’t Crimp Properly • Forget to Connect Methods • Softening Tubing with Water that’s Too Hot • Need to Check Units for All Possible Ways They Could Leak Measurement • No Testing for Leaks Prior to QA • Need to ID by Mfr./Model Which Units Leak the Most
1. Plan a change aimed at improvement. 4. Institutionalize the change or abandon or do it again. 4. Act 1. Plan 3. Check 2. Do 3. Study the results; did it work? 2. Execute the change. PDCA Cycle (Deming Wheel)
What is Six Sigma? • A sweeping culture change effort to position a company for greater customer satisfaction, profitability and competitiveness (developed by Motorola in the late 1970’s) • A goal of near perfection in meeting customer requirements • A comprehensive and flexible system for achieving, sustaining and maximizing business success; uniquely driven by close understanding of customer needs, disciplined use of facts, data, and statistical analysis, and diligent attention to managing, improving and reinventing business processes
Six Sigma DMAIC Process Define: Define who your customers are, and what their requirements are for your products and services – Their expectations. Define your team goals, project boundaries, what you will focus on and what you won’t. Define the process you are striving to improve by mapping the process. Control Improve Define Analyze Measure
Six Sigma DMAIC Process Measure: Eliminate guesswork and assumptions about what customers need and expect and how well processes are working. Collect data from many sources to determine speed in responding to customer requests, defect types and how frequently they occur, client feedback on how processes fit their needs, how clients rate us over time, etc. The data collection may suggest Charter revision. Control Improve Define Analyze Measure
Six Sigma DMAIC Process Analyze: Grounded in the context of the customer and competitive environment, analyze is used to organize data and look for process problems and opportunities. This step helps to identify gaps between current and goal performance, prioritize opportunities to improve, identify sources of variation and root causes of problems in the process. Control Improve Define Analyze Measure
Six Sigma DMAIC Process Control Improve: Generate both obvious and creative solutions to fix and prevent problems. Finding creative solutions by correcting root causes requires innovation, technology and discipline. Improve Define Analyze Measure
