SimpleQuE Celebrates World Quality Day

SimpleQuE celebrates World Quality Day and 100 years of quality, which evolved with the guidance of the Chartered Quality Institute (CQI) and the contributions of  quality management professionals across the globe. They have empowered organizations to sustain and improve performance, and boost customer satisfaction across all sectors. Quality has even played a major role in advancements in transportation, manufacturing, healthcare, construction, energy and defense.

CQI’s World Quality Day poster shows how quality management has evolved over the last 100 years. It began with the Age of Inspection when tools were developed to make inspection activities more efficient.  Today with the rise of smart factories, artificial intelligence and the internet of things, quality management has a more complex and expanded role.  Now it involves issues like data security, risk factors, counterfeit parts, and environmental accountability.

How can organizations advance quality?

If you haven’t done so already, implement a quality and/or environmental management system.  Look internally to see if you are meeting quality objectives which include customer, regulatory and environmental requirements.  Utilize the standards and tools that have been developed to monitor and measure the effectiveness of quality systems and compliance.  Perform regular internal audits and management reviews.  Get everyone in your organization involved to create a culture of improvement and celebrate quality every day!
