Evolution of Quality Management

▪ 1900 ’s F.W.Taylor, the ‘Father of Scientific Management’

emphasised on quality by including inspection.

▪ 1924 , W.Shewhart introduced statistical control chart to

monitor production.

▪ 1930 , H.F.Dodge & H.G.Roming introduced tables for

acceptance sampling etc.

▪ World War II caused dramatic increase in emphasis on

quality control.

▪ US Universities started training engineers in industries in

the use of statistical sampling techniques and professional

quality organisations such as ASQC.

▪ During 1950 s quality movement evolved into quality

assurance.

▪ W.Edwards Deming introduced SQC methods to

Japanese's manufactures to help them rebuild their

manufacturing base and enable them to compete in world

markets.

▪ In 1970 s quality assurance methods were used in services

such as government operations, health care, banking etc.

▪ Then in 1972 there was a dramatic shift from quality

assurance to strategic approach to quality.

▪ Concept of reactive approach (finding & correcting defects)

changed to pro active approach (preventing defects & re-

occurring) came into picture.

Quality Revolution in US

▪ The decade of 1980 s was a period of remarkable change and growing

awareness of quality by consumers, industry and the government.

▪ During 1950 s and 1960 s made in Japan was associated with inferior

products, US consumers purchased domestic goods and accepted their quality without question.

▪ During 1970 s increased global competition and the appearance of high

quality products in the market let US consumers to consider their purchasing decision more carefully.

▪ One of the most influential individual in US quality revolution was

W.Edwards Deming. His principles and methods where applied three decades earlier in Japan so now US companies started seeking help from his leadership to revolutionize the major companies.

▪ In 1985 NASA announced an excellence award for quality and

productivity. From late 1980 s and through 1990 s interest in quality grew at unprecedented rate. By 1989 , Florida Power and Light was the first non Japanese company to be awarded Japans coveted Deming Prize for quality.

Quality Movement in Japan

▪ During world war II, the Japanese economy was completely disrupted

and Japan was in desperate conditions.

▪ The first task after war was to restore industrial production.

▪ Before war , Japan was known as exporters of cheap goods and poor

quality.

▪ Then to survive Japan reversed its old policy and decided to establish a

new image and reputation for exports of high quality goods at low price.

▪ In 1950 through efforts of Dr. Edward Deming his SQC approach was

introduced in Japan and was taken up effectively by engineers and plant managers in top management industries.

▪ Quality circle has developed and is gaining strength in Japan more than

in any other country bringing continues improvement of quality and lowering the cost Japanese goods in both domestic and export markets.

▪ The rate of growth increased to 9 to 10 %.

▪ From 1950 to 1970 in this course of quality improvement in Japan per

capita income has increased roughly by four times.

Quality Movement in India

▪ Quality has been a tradition in India and monuments, relics, handicrafts,

gems, jewelry and craftsmanship has woven quality into our heritage.

▪ But while quality was a way of managing business in the US and Japan

in the 1950 s, it was not so in India.

▪ The quality movement was consolidated in 1980 s in Indian industries to

bring about a synergy of resources by CII.

▪ Walter Shewart father of statistical quality control visited India for a

short period of 3 months during 1947 - 48 and initiated SQC movement through visits to factories, personal discussions and lecturers.

▪ Few companies began to set up ‘Quality improvement Teams’ for

setting the path for continuous improvement.

▪ CII set up TQM division with help of 21 companies who agreed to

support the cause by pooling in resources and pledging to start the journey of TQM.

▪ The year 1987 brought ISO 9000 standards into reality and visible

strategies emerged from European market to set a global trend towards standardizing and certifying Quality systems. CII organized training courses for ISO 9000 in 1989.

▪ Two years latter, 1991 the first company got certified to ISO 9000.

▪ From there onwards the movement has gathered momentum and today

more than 500 companies have secured ISO 9000 certification.

▪ Today TQM has become a thrust area in quality movement as it was

realized that through ISO 9000.

▪ CII worked with Government of India to initiate a drive to create an

awareness on quality and customer orientation in state and central Government Departments.
