Leadership, Involvement of personnel, Process approach, Systematic approach to management, Factual approach to decision making and Continual improvement are some the main basic principles for these standards. These standards help the organisations to have a common mode of communication for dealing with all stakeholders and merge with the global economy. Instead of implementing all these five standards individually, an integrated approach for implementation can save time and efforts. For this a standard methodology using flow charts and a simple software is developed to help facilities get certified by checking whether the management systems comply with the required standards. This software can be a guiding tool for all stakeholders to understand requirements of various standards. This work also includes building a database in the software to store all the documents and records in an organized manner as required in the standard. This database would make the auditing process of documents and records simpler for both the auditor and organization. 1 All India Seminar on BEST PRACTICES AND APPLICTIONS OF TQM IN INDUSTRY AND ACADEMIA, Karnataka State Centre, 16-17 November 2019 BEST PRACTICES IN AUTOMOBILE INDUSTRY IN AFTER SALES SERVICE OF PASSENGER CAR SEGMENT IN SKILL ACQUISITION OF SERVICE PERSONNEL FOR T.Q.M. Dr. D. Dave, Professor- Marketing Management, Sardar Patel University, Valabh Vidhyanagar, Anand. Er. Ravi Menaria, BE (Automobile Engg),MBA, Dip T&D. [email protected] Abstract Automobile Industry and Transport sector counts for the largest number of People employed across the Globe. In India there are 23 cars per 1000 person where as In USA : 870 Cars per 1000 person. Now it is beyond comparison that India being most Populous country and our CAGR for Automobile Industry has remained considerably higher almost touching double digit (7 ~ 9) Indian Automobile Industry consists of mainly - Two Wheeler Segment, Commercial Vehicle Segment and Passenger Car Segment. Out of these three Segments Passenger Car Segment is most lucrative in terms of Revenue generation because Indians treat their Cars as part and parcel of Family. Customer Satisfaction is confined to three parameters namely Timely Repair of Car, Genuine Services rendered and Fair charges for Repair. Training is a Quality deployment tool which can enhance Customer Retention if everything is Transparent and nothing is ambiguous. Training for Service Staff beginning from Customer Relationship Executive – Front Desk Executive – Service Advisor – Cashier – Office Boy – Gate Pass clerk and culminates at Security Staff depositing Gate Pass cum Customer Satisfaction Note. Total Quality Management is reliability of Service Provider is good and it has no errors. We have to make Customer smile and also to ensure that at each and every step form Customer Relationship Executive to Security Staff it is religiously being followed. SERV - QUAL is more applicable here.

Sajjan Department of Mechanical Engineering, K.L.E INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY HUBLI, India. sajjansc@gmail. com [email protected] Abstract: The concept of Zero Defect Zero Effect is addressed by Honorable Prime Minister on 68th Independence Day. This concept mainly focuses on Micro Small and Medium Enterprise (MSME) that the goods they manufacture in the country with “Zero Defects” and ensure that the produced goods must have “Zero Effect” on the environment. Zero Defect focus on the customer, which has concern to zero nonconformance, noncompliance and zero waste. Zero Effect mainly focuses on society, and has concern on Air pollution, Solid Waste, Liquid Discharge (ZLD), Zero wastage of natural resources. This particular concept may be applied to all sectors of manufacturing and servicing industry. Keywords: Zero Defect, Zero Effect, Customer, Society, nonconformance, natural resources. WHAT IS TQM? Firstly TQM stands for Total Quality Management. The total quality concept and the term “total quality management” was first introduced to the western business world by Armand Feigenbaum in 1957, in the first edition of his book “Total Quality Control”. TQM has proved the most persisting management theory in industries and businesses. Quality management is a part of management aimed at achieving quality goals through planning, monitoring, assuring and improving quality. Involving all members of the organization brings us closer to total quality control (total quality management, TQM). Efficient TQM system in organization can facilitate quickly challenge in word market. Although many approaches exist for quality management, arguably, TQM is the most comprehensive approach 4 All India Seminar on BEST PRACTICES AND APPLICTIONS OF TQM IN INDUSTRY AND ACADEMIA, Karnataka State Centre, 16-17 November 2019 for quality management for all the sectors. Total Quality Management (TQM) is an organized approach for quality improvement along together with product and service specifications to customer performance. TQM is applying to target producing these specifications with zero defects. This makes a worthy cycle of constant improvement for production, customer satisfaction and profits. Total Quality Management (TQM) is not only adopted by a single person or an employee but all employees can become involved (including top management to shop floor management, in other words total or complete involvement, hence, Total) for the continuous improvement of the production of goods and services within the framework of organizations to strive for excellence in everything they do to achieve best quality standards ( customer satisfaction to the quality, hence, Quality) by its integrated well-managed (quality can and must be managed with best practiced system or tools hence, Management) system of various best practiced principles, methods. Continuous Improvement: TQM involves a better process thinking approach. It recognizes that everything done at all level is part of a process not any extra burden, it also includes how well each part of the process works and the relationship of each part to the process for constant perfection, e.g. The Plan-Do-Check-Act cycle is a continuous quest of quality, which is firmly driven in TQM. According to the need, a variety of methods are implemented for TQM. 5 All India Seminar on BEST PRACTICES AND APPLICTIONS OF TQM IN INDUSTRY AND ACADEMIA, Karnataka State Centre, 16-17 November 2019 Figure 1 http://www.drshrutibhat.com/continuous-improvement.html The need of TQM In fact earlier the concept of "mass production" was existed in which whatever goods produced became demanded in market i.e. market trend of 'sales oriented' or 'product oriented', here a manufacturer known as king , but completely the opposite scenario is seen today , the market is became "customer oriented" or 'demand oriented' where customer became a king. So, it is obvious to cope up with the various products demand with the great satisfaction of products, ease of delivery and competitive pricing, manufacturers must have to make continuous changes. MODERN INDUSTRY APPROACH FOR ZERO DEFECTS Due to economic changes the world has brought about complications and increasing day to day level of competition in each and every sector of industry. As a whole productivity is one of the most important criteria in competitive market of each sector, nation or an industry. Quality output is a state of being able to perform in this competitive world. It is related with the 6 All India Seminar on BEST PRACTICES AND APPLICTIONS OF TQM IN INDUSTRY AND ACADEMIA, Karnataka

  • Six Sigma Vs. Total Quality Management – Presence in World and Serbian Economy  Udc 005.6(100+497.11)
    FACTA UNIVERSITATIS Series: Economics and Organization Vol. 8, No 2, 2011, pp. 221 - 233 SIX SIGMA VS. TOTAL QUALITY MANAGEMENT – PRESENCE IN WORLD AND SERBIAN ECONOMY UDC 005.6(100+497.11) Marija Anđelković Pešić, Vinko Lepojević, Vladimir Zlatić University of Niš, Faculty of Economics, Serbia [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Abstract. The Six Sigma concept represents a step forward in the evolutionary development of the approaches for providing competitive advantage based on continuous quality improvement. In that sense, this concept is the successor of Total Quality Management, and, as each new generation surpasses its predecessor, Six Sigma goes beyond Total Quality Management. After implementation of this concept many companies around the world have achieved significant results. Guided by this fact, the aim of this paper is to show the advantages of the Six Sigma concept compared to Total Quality Management. The paper presents data which show presence of the Six Sigma concept in the world economy, but at the same time data from which one can realize the "place" of the Serbian economy compared to the world economy, when it is about implementation of this concept. Key Words: Six Sigma, Total Quality Management, customers, defects, leadership, business culture. INTRODUCTION The appearance of defects is possible in all the processes that take place in an enter- prise. This means that defects occur during: determining the needs and demands of cus- tomers, product design and development, materials and equipment procurement, planning and preparation of production, transport of materials and unfinished products or parts of products, storage of materials and equipment, production process, storage of finished products, sales and distribution, product installation, technical assistance and maintenance and servicing.

  • Maintenance Approaches for Different Production Methods
    MAINTENANCE APPROACHES FOR DIFFERENT PRODUCTION METHODS D.S. Mungani1 & J.K. Visser2 Department of Engineering and Technology Management Graduate School of Technology Management University of Pretoria, Pretoria, South Africa [email protected], [email protected] ABSTRACT Various production methods are used in industry to manufacture or produce a variety of products needed by industry and consumers. The nature of a product determines which production method is most suitable or cost-effective. A continuous process is typically used to produce large volumes of liquids or gases. Batch processing is often used for small volumes, such as pharmaceutical products. This paper discusses a research project to determine the relationship between maintenance approaches and production methods. A survey was done to determine to what extent three maintenance approaches – reliability- centred maintenance (RCM), total productive maintenance (TPM), and business-centred maintenance (BCM) – are used for three different processing methods (continuous process, batch process, and a production line method). OPSOMMING Verskeie produksiemetodes word deur die industrie gebruik om ’n wye verskeidenheid produkte te vervaardig wat deur die industrie en verbruikers benodig word. Die aard van ’n produk bepaal watter produksiemetode die meeste koste-effektief is. Kontinue prosesse word gewoonlik gebruik vir die vervaardiging van groot volumes gasse of vloeistowwe. Enkelladingsprosesse word dikwels gebruik om klein hoeveelhede van ’n produk te vervaardig, bv. farmaseutiese produkte. Hierdie artikel bespreek ’n projek wat uitgevoer is om die verwantskap tussen instandhoudingsbenaderings en produksiemetodes te bepaal. ’n Meningsopname is gedoen om te bepaal tot watter mate drie benaderings – betroubaarheidgebaseerde instandhouding (RCM), totale produktiewe instandhouding (TPM) en besigheidgebaseerde instandhouding (BCM) – gebruik kan word vir drie alternatiewe produksiemetodes, naamlik kontinue prosesse, enkelladings prosesse, en die produksielyn metode.

The literature on this topic provides divergent opinions. Lean advocates state it is preferable for employees to search for the information they need, as and when they need it, rather than configuring software to provide them with information that is repeated at predetermined times. IT proponents consider Information Technology as a useful tool to support lean practices, for example to deal with complex issues in real-time. This paper gives an overview of the opinions. In addition the process models of lean and ISA 95 are matched. The underlying research question is: does the ISA 95 standard give an appropriate framework to support lean practices; such as Visual Management, Kanban, Value Stream Mapping, Six Sigma, … A preliminary conclusion on their complementarity is made and further research is mentioned.

  • Reliability Centered Maintenance in Schedule Improvement of Automotive Assembly Industry
    American Journal of Applied Sciences 9 (8): 1232-1236, 2012 ISSN 1546-9239 © 2012 Science Publications Reliability Centered Maintenance in Schedule Improvement of Automotive Assembly Industry Rizauddin Ramli and Mohammad Nizam Arffin Department of Mechanical and Materials Engineering, Faculty of Engineering and Built Environment, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, 43600 (UKM) Bangi, Selangor, Malaysia Abstract: Problem statement: Today, in many automotive manufacturing companies, maintenance management is an important factor to maintain the plant operation and production equipments. Approach: In this study, we present an implementation of Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) practice in one of the automotive manufacturing company in Malaysia. The RCM practice was used to assist the company in focusing their maintenance activities based on the criticalities of the equipments by applying the Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA). The implementation of RCM was carried out in 4 stages; preparation, system analysis, decision making and feedback. The aim of RCM was to reduce the number of maintenance checklist and to improve significantly the integrity of maintenance practice. Results: As a result, the new RCM framework was generated where Class A equipment was at the top of the monthly maintenance frequency priority, followed by Class B and Class C equipment which had lesser critical value. Conclusion: The new RCM framework is used to conduct visible guideline and propose a new maintenance schedule. The guideline is useful for future maintenance

ABSTRACT The ongoing changes in manufacturing require that new information models for industrial computer systems be developed and applied. This paper describes a concept for the material model as a ``digital twin'' for producing highly customised, smart electronic devices. The scope of the research is the transformation of the models that are typical for the currently used automation pyramid approach to Reference Architecture Models for Industry 4.0 (RAMI4.0). The ISA95 standard is used as the modelling tool and Open Production Connectivity Unified Architecture (OPC UA) as the communication middleware. The presented use case focuses on a rework operation that is performed during the short series production of highly customised electronic devices that are produced by the Aiut company.
