Scope of Process Management
• Process Management: planning and
administering the activities – design,
control, and improvement – necessary to
achieve a high level of performance
• Four types of key processes
–
–
–
–
Design processes
Production/delivery processes
Support processes
Supplier processes

•
•
•
Focus on end-to-end process
Mindset of prevention and continuous
improvement
Everyone manages a process at some level
and is a customer and a supplier
Customer needs drive the process
Corrective action focuses on root cause
Process simplification reduces errors

Leading Practices (1 of 2)
• Translate customer requirements and internal
capabilities into product and service design
requirements early in the process
• Ensure that quality is built into products and services
and use appropriate tools during development
• Manage product development process to enhance
communication, reduce time, and ensure quality
• Define, document, and manage important
production/delivery and support processes

Leading Practices (2 of 2)
• Define performance requirements for suppliers and
ensure that they are met
• Control the quality and operational performance of
key processes and use systematic methods to identify
variations, determine root causes, and make
corrections
• Continuously improve processes to achieve better
quality, cycle time, and overall operational
performance
• Innovate to achieve breakthrough performance using
benchmarking and reengineering

Taguchi Loss Function Calculations
L(x) = k(x - T)2
Example: Specification = .500  .020
Failure outside of the tolerance range costs $50
to repair. Thus, 50 = k(.020)2. Solving for k
yields k = 125,000. The loss function is:
L(x) = 125,000(x - .500)2
Expected loss = k(2 + D2) where D is the deviation
from the target.

Design Objectives
• Cost, Manufacturability, Quality,
Public Concerns
• Tools and Approaches
– Design for Manufacturability
– Design for Environment

Streamlining Product Development
• Competitive need for rapid product
development
• Concurrent engineering - a process in
which all major functions involved with
bringing a product to market are
continuously involved with the product
development from conception through
sales
• Design reviews

Identify the product or service
Identify the customer
Identify the supplier
Identify the process
Mistake-proof the process
Develop measurements and control, and
improvement goals.

Evaluating a Process
• Are steps arranged in logical sequence?
• Do all steps add value? Can some be eliminated
or added? Can some be combined? Should some
be reordered?
• Are capacities in balance?
• What skills, equipment, and tools are required at
each step?
• At which points might errors occur and how can
they be corrected?
• At which points should quality be measured?
• What procedures should employees follow where
customer interaction occurs?

Projects
• Project initiation – direction, priorities,
limitations, and constraints
• Project plan – blueprint and resources
needed
• Execution – produce deliverables
• Close out – evaluate customer satisfaction
and provide learning for future projects

Basic Components of Services
• Physical facilities, processes, and
procedures
• Employee behavior
• Employee professional
judgment

Control
• The continuing process of evaluating process
performance and taking corrective action when
necessary
• Components of control systems
– Standard or goal
– Means of measuring accomplishment
– Comparison of results with the standard as a basis
for corrective action
A well-controlled system is predictable

Supplier and Partnering Processes
• Recognize the strategic importance of
suppliers
• Develop win-win relationships through
partnerships
• Establish trust through openness and
honesty
THE MANAGEMENT AND CONTROL OF QUALITY, 5e, © 2002 South-Western/Thomson LearningTM

Supplier Certification Systems
• “Certified supplier” – one that, after
extensive investigation, is found to
supply material of such quality that
routine testing on each lot received is
unnecessary
