Quick Response Quality Control
The QRQC can bee seen seen as a general management attitude to solve any kind of problem at the place where it occurs. Closely related to Gemba Walks. With QRQC the main focus relies on the so called “Three Reals”. The three reals aims to guide you firstly to think about the real place and real time (Gemba - or originally “gen-ba”), the real part (“gen-butsu”) and to have a focus on the reality (“gen-jitsu”)
Having a functioning QRQC systematic installed supports the greater target of smooth production by:
Decrease of Cost for Quality
Decrease of Scrap Rate
Decrease Cost of Product
Less line Stops
Quick Response on customer Quality Claims
Increasing the Quality Level in general
Increasing the turnover of inventory
Increase of throughput
As with all Lean or Operational Excellence activities you will need the support of coaches and management level. Implementing a standardized procedure on how to react on customer claims and internal failure rates needs C-Level support to promote and to walk the talk. The baseline of problem solving is and always will be the discipline to follow the complete structure and process of standardized problem solving.
Important as the problem solving itself, is in the end the transparency and promotion of solutions as well as clear communication and sharing of the gained knowledge through Shop Floor QRQC initiatives to be seen by the whole organization. Best way to do so is visualizing important information of the closed issues, such on Shop Floor Boards or at work stations themself.
