LongXi Machinery Works: Quality Improvement (A)
內容大綱
Lin Zhang has just received approval for the formation of a new quality control group at LongXi, located in Zhangzhou, China. This new group must investigate and reduce the high defect rate of a critical part used in the final manufacture of multi-cylinder diesel engines. Lin must decide who will be directly involved in the team, which data must be collected and analyzed, what is causing the problem, and which actions should be taken. The improvement project is set within the context of LongXi's broader quality and systems, thus encouraging students to evaluate and push forward corporate quality systems. This case is the first in a three-part series that applies the principles and tools of total quality management (TQM) in a Chinese setting.
