TQM Tools and Techniques

This document discusses Total Quality Management (TQM) tools and techniques. It begins with an introduction and literature review on TQM. It then covers the classification, categories, and roadmap for implementation of TQM tools. These include qualitative tools like flow charts and affinity diagrams, and quantitative tools like control charts and Pareto charts. The document emphasizes using the right tools for customer-based, management-based, employee-based, supplier-based, process-based, and product-based aspects of implementation. It concludes that correctly selecting and using tools is vital for a successful TQM program.

Total quality management

Managing the entire organization so that it excels on all

dimensions of products and services that are important to the


customer.
Fundamental operational goals
1. Careful design of the product or service
2. Ensuring that the organizations system can consistently
produce the design.

Literature review
TQM can take place in three phases
(I) diagnosis and preparation
(II) management focus and commitment
(III) intensive improvement.
()The diagnostic and preparation phase

of TQM requires the introduction of a


number of fact finding tools, some of which
are cost of quality and Departmental
Purpose Analysis (DPA).

TQM implementation steps

Classification of TQM tools


Qualitative tools:- consist mainly of

subjective inputs, which often do not


intend to measure something of a
numerical nature.
Quantitative tools:-involve either the
extension of historical data or the
analysis of objective data, which
usually avoid personal biases that
sometimes contaminate qualitative
tools.

Categories of TQM tools


Qualitative
tools:
flow charts
cause-andeffect
diagrams
multi-voting
affinity
diagram
process action
teams

Quantitative tools:

Shewart cycle (PDCA)


control charts
scatter diagrams
Pareto charts
sampling
run charts
histograms.

TQM tools implementation roadmap

Process measurement
What is happening?
How is the process performing?
Is the process improving?
Is the process satisfying customer

requirements?

The best tools for this purpose is check sheet, Pareto chart,
histogram, scatter diagram, runchart and statistical process
control (SPC). The data collected by these tools can be used
to
measure the process.

Other purposes of process measurement

understanding what is happening


provide objective performance feedback
evaluate the need for improvement
evaluate the impact of changes
set schedules and performance targets.

conclusion

The correct selection and use of tools


and techniques is a vital component of
any successful TQM implementation
plan. The TQM tools and techniques can
be divided into simple tools for solving a
special problem and complex one that
