Several questions are often raised on how the organization confirms that its products supplied are compliant with the set quality standards. In most cases companies relays on checking in coming materials. This is further compared with their quality standards as well as supply generated documents such as certificate of analysis. Based such analyzed results, the individuals charged with inspections can either reject or accept a shipment. Mostly organizations use acceptance sampling approach as outlined by MIL STD.
Organizations also use modern sampling procedures as fronted by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) as well as American Society for quality (ASQ). Regardless of the strategy employed, it assists in minimizing inspection costs, prevent low quality manufactured goods from entering the organization production process and manage risks.
According to quality professionals, this sampling strategy is perceived to be just like another inspection tool. Expansion of resource inspection will be significant in ensuring better production through inspection of critical materials received. That is if the organization does not consider importance of inspecting such material, it might end up jeopardizing quality of goods produced. It will subject the corporate to cross their figure hoping that their products meet the set standards.
It occupies a middle ground between no inspection and a hundred percent inspection. These techniques have been viewed just as another set of inspections tools. In addition, most quality professionals confers the strategy as unworthy of being associated with quality improvement tool as the end result of all such statistical is a stand alone, meek accept or reject conclusions. Such assertion was perceived to be true however, in the recent times; such sampling strategy has been deemed to be more effective means of improving quality.
For instance, when the company inspector employs such strategy in tracking incoming materials and products such data obtained are further used in decision making on rejecting or accepting conclusion. This strategy makes it easier to notice the actual defects and failures along with the codes of the product, the name of the supplier, traceability elements associated with the supply. This information could not be easily obtained if the inspector used ANSI/ASQ Z1.4.
This strategy makes it possible to access historical data from the suppliers, products and denoting traceability elements. Professionals ascertain that such quality information can only be obtained through sampling strategy. By doing so, Pareto charts, histograms, control charts, as well other statistical analysis can be achieved through analyzing the inspection data.
Through this information, defect between suppliers could be compared. It also gives an opportunity to confirm the control or lack of control processes by the supplier. This information could be used to collaborate work with the assistance of the supplier to help the vendor improve the quality of its manufacturing processes and supplied products.
This servers as compliment procedure for typical quality improvement along with the accept or reject conclusion. In the past unidentified vendor specific quality levels could be quantified and that information used significantly in reducing cost from corner to corner the supply chain and improving the quality. This can be done simply with no cost or a little to those organizations who already using ANSI/ASQ steps. Quality improvement should be the focus of all organization interested in remaining competitive in the current market.
