    Q1. Which Type of Data An Organization Use To Measure Performance?

    Uploaded by

    Mateen Arshad
    Control charts, Pareto diagrams, cause-and-effect diagrams, and process mapping are tools that organizations use to measure performance. Control charts track process performance over time, Pareto diagrams identify the largest problems affecting operations, cause-and-effect diagrams identify potential causes of defects, and process mapping visually depicts work steps. These tools provide objective, data-driven feedback to leadership on operational performance and areas needing improvement.

    Q1. Which type of data an organization use to measure performance?

    Accurate measurement of organizational performance allows managers to correct deficiencies,


    leading to cost-savings and higher customer satisfaction. But without the right tools, it's hard to
    adjust operations and lead personnel in the right direction. Several specific quality tools measure
    organizational performance and provide meaningful feedback to leadership.

    1. Control Charts.
    Control charts are graphs that track the performance of a process over a period of time. Elements
    of control charts include a central line for the average process performance, an upper control
    limit and a lower control limit with data points plotted in time order. By comparing current and
    historical data, managers are able to determine if a process is in control or whether variation in
    process outputs is normal. Control charts give management a scientific way of measuring
    performance.

    2. Pareto Diagrams.
    Pareto Diagrams are bar charts that plot the frequency of defects or costs, with the largest bars
    placed to the left. In this way, managers can see the areas of greatest concern quickly, assessing
    the areas of operations that need adjustment based on the most important defects or costs. Once
    these issues are corrected, smaller defects often are eliminated. Managers save time and
    resources by focusing on the problem areas that have the largest impact on operations.

    3. Cause-and-Effect Diagrams.
    Cause-and-effect diagrams, also known as fishbone diagrams, identify the possible causes for
    defects within a process or system. A problem statement is examined by discussing the potential
    for defects in methods, machines, people, materials, measurement and environment. Employees
    more easily can visualize processes and systems that are mapped out in this fashion. These
    diagrams and discussions are effective ways to identify deficiencies and talk about solutions.

    4. Process Mapping.
    Process mapping graphically depicts the different steps and decision points within a process.
    This tool can be used by managers or employees to assess and standardize work tasks. It also
    allows subject matter experts to communicate with managers about specific processes. Process
    maps are sometimes easier to interpret than lengthy written procedures and can serve as
    benchmarks to measure performance against. This quality tool and others make it easier to gauge
    operations in an objective manner.
    Q2. Cost of Quality and quality cost management?

    Cost Of Quality.
    Costs of quality or quality costs does not mean the use of expensive or very highly quality
    materials to manufacture a product. The term refers to the costs that are incurred to prevent,
    detect and remove defects from products. Quality costs are categorized into four main types.
    These are:

     Prevention costs.
     Appraisal costs.
     Internal failure costs.
     External failure costs.

    Quality Cost Management.


    Quality costs can arise anywhere in a company. There may be product design issues that begin in
    the engineering department, as well as manufacturing problems that can create product flaws.
    Further, the procurement department may acquire substandard components that result in product
    flaws. In addition, the order entry department may have incorrectly entered a customer order, so
    that the customer receives the wrong product. These issues all result in quality costs. Quality
    costs can comprise a major portion of the total expenses of a business, though they are hidden
    within its normal cost recording system, which is oriented more toward recording by
    responsibility center than by quality issue. The mitigation of quality issues can greatly increase
    the profitability of a business, as well as enhance the level of customer retention.
