INTRODUCTION
Quality
the standard of something as measured against other things of a
similar kind; the degree of excellence of something.
Quality refers to a set of characteristics expected from products
or services. It is a combination of various factors such as design,
performance, reliability, safety, efficiency, effectiveness,
economy and timeliness. In other words, quality means
conformance with specific standards. It also implies a measure
of how well a product or service meets its purpose.
six different perspective
1.Transcendental Perspective: This viewpoint regards quality as an innate,
subjective experience that is impossible to objectively define. Something is deemed
"high quality" if it conveys a sense of excellence or superiority. This viewpoint
frequently relies on personal preference, intuition, and individual judgment.
2.Product-Based Perspective: This viewpoint emphasizes measurable qualities of a
product or service that contribute to its quality. These attributes may include
features, performance, dependability, durability, attractiveness, and adherence to
requirements. This viewpoint emphasizes quantifiable metrics and objective
norms.
3.The user-centered approach defines quality based on consumer happiness and
perception. It considers usability, functionality, value for money, and overall
experience. User reviews, comments, and market share can all be used to assess
quality from this angle.
4. Manufacturing-Based Perspective: This viewpoint emphasizes the processes and
systems utilized to create a product or service. It focuses on quality control
procedures, fault prevention, and continual improvement. Compliance with
protocols, efficient resource utilization, and waste minimization are all important
considerations.
5. The value-based perspective defines quality as achieving customer wants and
expectations at a reasonable cost. It evaluates the total value proposition, which
includes pricing, performance, and features. This viewpoint emphasizes achieving
a balance between quality and price.
6. The system-based perspective analyzes quality in the context of a wider system.
It examines the interdependence of various components and how they affect
overall system performance and reliability. This viewpoint emphasizes the
significance of integration, collaboration, and overall optimization.
Quality management has evolved over time, driven by changing customer
needs and technological advancements. Here's a brief look at its history:
Early Beginnings (19th Century):
- Industrial Revolution: Mass production led to the need for consistent
product quality.

- Frederick Winslow Taylor: Introduced scientific management principles,
including quality control through inspection.
Early 20th Century:
- Walter A. Shewhart: Developed statistical process control (SPC), a system
for monitoring and improving production processes.
- W. Edwards Deming: Advocated for a customer-centric approach to
quality, emphasizing continuous improvement and reducing variation.
Mid-to-Late 20th Century:
- Japanese Quality Movement: Japanese companies embraced quality management
principles, achieving significant improvements in product quality and market share.

prioritizing customer feedback and continuous improvement.
- Quality 4.0: Integration of digital technologies, such as artificial intelligence and big
data, into quality management systems.
Quality in manufacturing is continuously providing items that meet client expectations
and criteria. It's not only about making things perfect; it's also about making sure they
work reliably, are long-lasting, and fulfill safety regulations. Here's a simple
breakdown:
Key Elements:
- Conformance to Specifications: Products follow predefined design specifications,
dimensions, and materials. -
Performance: Products perform as expected under a variety of conditions and fulfill
performance requirements.
- Reliability: Products perform consistently and without failure over time.
- Durability: Products survive wear and tear while remaining functional for their
intended lifespan.
- Aesthetics: Products fulfill visual and aesthetic criteria, which increases consumer
happiness.
To achieve quality in manufacturing, implement inspection and
testing methods at each level of production to discover and address
faults.
