Quality Improvement Training
We can provide training in a wide range of quality improvement methodologies, either as a stand-alone module
or as part of an integrated programme. All of the training can be tailored to meet your specific requirements
and where appropriate can be focussed around company applications.
Design of Experiments, DOE
Despite experimentation being a key part of product or technology develolpment, engineers and technologists are still
not properly equipped with tools to run experiments efficiently; instead relying on the "one factor at a time" method.
Robust Design using Taguchi Methods
Robustness is a much desired attribute for products and processes. Taguchi's approach to Robust Design
provides a practical and cost effective way to achieve this.
Failure Mode and Effects Analysis, FMEA
Prevention is better than cure - FMEA is perhaps the most commonly applied (although not always the most successful!)
approach to risk assessment and mitigation. It can be applied to both design (DFMEA) and process (PFMEA).
Customer focus using Quality Function Deployment, QFD
Customer requirements should be a foundation of any product/service development. QFD provides a structured method
for tracking these requirements through the product development process.
8D Problem Solving
Taking a structured approach to problem solving can ensure that the root cause is correctly identified and
recurrence is prevented. The team based, 8D approach to problem solving is widely recognised in industry.
