of Quality training may be what
you need.
PREREQUISITE:
Basic math skills required. Basic
understanding of accounting basics helpful. Participants may benefit
more from this training if they have taken the Lean Manufacturing
workshop & simulation.
COURSE DESCRIPTION:
This course will explore how "quality"
contributes to bottom line profit by reducing the costs associated
with poor quality. Participants will gain an understanding of the
various costs of quality (prevention, appraisal, internal failures,
external failures) and learn how to experience dramatic improvements
in profitability by managing these costs. The course will include
information on how traditional accounting categories often mask
quality problems - with suggested approaches to gathering and tracking
the quality performance data required to truly manage and improve
the company's bottom line.
LEARN HOW TO:
| • |
Get management's attention
by talking in terms of money (costs of poor quality) and enhanced
profitability. |
| • |
Recognize and measure the "hidden"
costs of poor quality in addition to more traditional measures
of quality. |
| • |
Identify the various costs of quality (prevention,
appraisal, internal failures, external failures) in your company. |
| • |
Apply a systematic decision process to identify
and measure the specific costs associated with poor quality. |
| • |
Gather and monitor the cost of quality on
an ongoing basis, using common business measures (% of sales,
$'s per unit, units shipped, etc.). |
| • |
Compare the relative cost savings of one
quality improvement initiative over another. |
| • |
Measure quality's impact on the company's
bottom line and create motivation for new quality initiatives.
