2. Why Learn Quality?
'Quality' is not just a buzz word today. Organizations, world over are using 'quality' as a vehicle for achieving
not only customer satisfaction, but also for improving the organizational performance. There are a number of
techniques & approaches that have been used by organizations in achieving quality of their products &
services.
The quality movement in the 1980s helped Japan in achieving breakthrough success in their businesses. This
prompted the Americans & Europeans to adopt similar quality initiatives in their quest for achieving success in
the market place.
Quality is no longer a responsibility of only the QC department. It is everything in an organization
& is everyone's responsibility. We need to teach quality techniques & concepts to people in all
spheres of work.
The quality is required to be achieved in all types of organizations. Small, medium
or large corporations whether in the manufacturing or in service sector, private or
public, all need to satisfy their customers in order to be successful.
The quality can be achieved if all functions & departments of an organization
work together for achieving customers' satisfaction. Quality has to be a
part of marketing, designing, purchasing, storage, inspection, manufacturing,
servicing, product or service delivery, equipment maintenance,
training & HR, communication, and above all of the top management.
