implementations that manage quality processes through the ERP system. Other systems such as
EH&S, CRM, MOM, and Supply Chain management touch quality in a critical way.
Executives have now started utilizing Business Process Management (BPM) tools to automate
end to end business process. In 2013, organizations will continue to focus on harmonizing the
existing investments made in these systems to ensure that quality is managed seamlessly across
the organization. Understanding points of integration between systems will be vital for
successfully interconnecting processes and data.
Quality Metrics Program
Measuring the quality performance of an organization is not a new concept. Organizations have
done it for years now and have established standardized metrics that are utilized across industries
and geographies. Industrial and manufacturing metrics such as Overall Yield, On time and
Complete Shipments, Supplier defects, etc., have been consistently used by many organizations.
However there are other metrics such as the Cost of Quality, New Products Introduction,
and Overall Equipment Effectiveness, etc., that companies are still having difficulty with
understanding and implementing.
Another area creating a challenge is in finding quality metrics data that can be used to
benchmark performance and understand gaps as compared to peers in the industry. LNS
Research has collected metrics data from hundreds of organizations and will be releasing it soon
to Global Quality Advisory Council members. Well also be covering quality and
manufacturing metrics more in depth throughout 2013.
Supplier Quality Management
The final area of focus will be to on supplier quality management. Executives in many
industries work with global supplier bases that are heavily tiered. An organization is not only
responsible for managing the quality of its own suppliers, but also its suppliers suppliers. There
are many critical issues that come up while managing a global supplier base such as compliance,
risk management, traceability etc., that executives have to manage. As organizations scale
business across geographies, this challenge will get more complicated. LNS will be publishing
best practices on the supplier quality management topic in 2013. Stay tuned!

2. Control chart
Control charts, also known as Shewhart charts
(after Walter A. Shewhart) or process-behavior
charts, in statistical process control are tools used
to determine if a manufacturing or business
process is in a state of statistical control.
If analysis of the control chart indicates that the
process is currently under control (i.e., is stable,
with variation only coming from sources common
to the process), then no corrections or changes to
process control parameters are needed or desired.

5.Ishikawa diagram
Ishikawa diagrams (also called fishbone diagrams,
herringbone diagrams, cause-and-effect diagrams, or
Fishikawa) are causal diagrams created by Kaoru
Ishikawa (1968) that show the causes of a specific event.
[1][2] Common uses of the Ishikawa diagram are product
design and quality defect prevention, to identify potential
factors causing an overall effect. Each cause or reason for
imperfection is a source of variation. Causes are usually
grouped into major categories to identify these sources of
variation. The categories typically include
People: Anyone involved with the process
Methods: How the process is performed and the
specific requirements for doing it, such as policies,
procedures, rules, regulations and laws
Machines: Any equipment, computers, tools, etc.
required to accomplish the job
Materials: Raw materials, parts, pens, paper, etc.
used to produce the final product
Measurements: Data generated from the process
that are used to evaluate its quality
Environment: The conditions, such as location,
time, temperature, and culture in which the process
operates
