Dimensions Of Product Quality (Garvin) 1. Performance • basic operating characteristics 2. Features • “extra” items added to basic features 3. Reliability • probability product will operate over time 4. Conformance • meeting pre-established standards
5. Durability • life span before replacement 6. Serviceability • ease of getting repairs, speed & competence of repairs 7. Aesthetics • look, feel, sound, smell or taste 8. Safety • freedom from injury or harm 9. Other perceptions • subjective perceptions based on brand name, advertising, etc
Service Quality 1. Time & Timeliness • customer waiting time, completed on time 2. Completeness • customer gets all they asked for 3. Courtesy • treatment by employees e

The Meaning of Quality Producer’s Perspective Consumer’s Perspective Quality of Conformance Quality of Design Production Marketing • Quality characteristics • Price • Conformance to • specifications • Cost Fitness for Consumer Use
Quality Of Conformance • Ensuring product or service produced according to design • Depends on • design of production process • performance of machinery • materials • training
Cost Of Quality • Cost of achieving good quality • Prevention • Appraisal • Cost of poor quality • Internal failure costs • External failure costs
Sales Gains via • Improved response • Flexible pricing • Improved reputation Improved Quality Increased Profits Reduced Costs via • Lower rework and scrap costs • Lower warranty & product liability costs Two Ways Quality Improves Profitability
Quality And Productivity • Productivity = output / input • Fewer defects increase output • Quality improvement reduces inputs
Total Quality Management 1. Customer defined quality and satisfaction 2. Top management leadership 3. Quality as a strategic issue 4. All employees responsible for quality 5. Continuous improvement 6. Shared problem solving/ Cross-discipline system approach 7. Statistical quality control: measurement of results 8. Mutually beneficial supplier relations
