Joseph Juran, the Quality guru renowned for his trilogy of processes; Quality Planning, Quality Control & Quality Improvement, all aimed at reducing the cost of poor quality by designing quality into the product and process.

Most manufactures recognise poor quality, however many don't find it until downstream final inspection. The worst case being when issues have occurred early on in the value stream, yet go unnoticed until towards the last of the value-adding operations. This results in unnecessary high cost of rework or scrap combined with wasted effort, capacity and energy.

DELMIA Apriso Quality provides a way for manufactures to embed quality inspections, tests and checks as an integral part of all manufacturing operations phases - across the global enterprise.

Juran's concepts and principles may originate from the 1950s but are still just as relevant today as they were over 70 years ago.
