| Summary: | (TQM) program in a remanufacturing environment. One of the core principles of TQM is continuous improvement. A cost approach that is much more flexible [1]. This approach cost of quality. Traditionally, comprehensive quality cost costs. engineer, who may not be trained in quality costing experience to adequately cost justify quality improvement. for improvement over time. However, current research has identify opportunities for improvement and provide guidelines is based upon exposure of the cost savings directly related justify a quality improvement initiative. Research has shown justify technological improvement based upon total quality preferred metric for measuring quality improvement is the reports have regularly been issued in a fixed format to shown that continuous improvement is enhanced by a quality techniques, will be responsible for the economic analysis to technological innovation into a total quality management that most engineers, simply do not have the training or The results of this study provide process-level engineers This study provides economic justification for insertion of to quality improvement. in many cases a process-level with a cost/benefit model template, which can be used to cost |
