The document discusses the costs of quality, including costs of conformance like prevention and appraisal, costs of non-conformance like internal and external failure costs, and intangible costs. It outlines steps for quality improvement which are to identify opportunities, form a team, analyze current processes, define desired outcomes, identify root causes and solutions, calculate costs of quality, prioritize and test solutions, implement solutions, measure progress, and communicate results.
Cost of quality is a methodology that allows an organization to determine the extent to which its resources are used for activities that prevent poor quality, that appraise the quality of the organization's products or services, and that result from internal and external failures.
A presentation on the different methods to use to control quality and prevent internal and external failure to avoid the catastrophic inestimable price of poor quality.

The economy is developing very fast and it is becoming more competitive with each passing day as customers also become more difficult (Weckenmann and Akkasoglu, 2012). The organization has to face more fierce competitions and challenges every day. Many companies provide the same products or services for the same customers (Weckenmann, Akkasoglu and Werner, 2015). To survive on this conjuncture, they must build up their reputation based on great product quality.
Many foundational principles of quality were introduced and developed by Deming in 1986 (Wicks. A and Roethlein. C, 2009). They had quickly become essential factors in many companies’ operation. Consequently, quality management must be given more attention like an important strategy (Khaled Omar and Murgan, 2014). Many authors think that quality of products or services has a close relationship with customer satisfaction. In order to help companies control their product quality more efficiently, the concept of cost of quality (CoQ) was formed and developed continuously.
Quality cost philosophy was first described by Armand V. Feigenbaum (1956) in his book, “Total quality management”. After that, many modified definitions of CoQ had appeared. Chiadamrong (2003) said, “The cost of quality is a comprehensive system, not a piecemeal tool.” According to Chopra and Garg (2012), quality cost is the gap between actual cost and perfect cost of products or service. In general, quality cost is a useful methodology that helps companies to build trust with customers, ensure sustainable development and increase their profit.
Crandall and Julien (2010) said that The American Society of Quality (ASQ) define cost of quality as follows: “Quality costs are the total of the cost incurred by investing in the prevention of nonconformance to requirements, appraising a product or service for conformance to requirements, and failing to meet requirements. The sum of these costs represents the difference between the actual cost of a product or service and what the reduced cost would be if there were no possibility of substandard service, failure of products or defects in their manufacturing.”
This paper will provide general and in-depth information about costs of quality and its development up to the present day with two main parts. The first part will concentrate on concepts, definitions, and models of quality costs as well as how it was formed. The second part will contain real example, discussion and analysis about how CoQ concept is as relevant today as it has ever been.

The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.
