What is Quality• Fred Smith. CEO of FedEx defines
quality as “ performance to the standard expected by customer “
• Boeing “ providing our customer with products and services that consistently meet their needs and expectations”
![Page 11: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Is … So Quality• Although there is no universally accepted definition of
quality. There are some similarity among among quality definition:
• Quality involves meeting or exceeding customer expectations.
• Quality applies to products, services, people, processes, and environments.
• Quality is ever changing state (i.e., what consider quality today may not good enough to be considered quality tomorrow).

The Deming Cycle• The Deming cycle, or PDSA cycle, is
a continuous quality improvement model consisting of a logical sequence of four repetitive steps for continuous improvement and learning: Plan, Do, Study (Check) and Act.
• It is also known as the Deming circle/cycle/wheel, Shewhartcycle, control circle/cycle, or plan–do–study–act (PDSA)
![Page 18: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
• W. Edwards Deming in the 1950's proposed that business processes should be analyzed and measured to identify sources of variations that cause products to deviate from customer requirements.
• He recommended that business processes be placed in a continuous feedback loop so that managers can identify and change the parts of the process that need improvements.
The Deming Cycle
![Page 19: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
• Example : • At Toyota this is also known as "Building people
before building cars.“• Toyota and other Lean companies propose that
an engaged, problem solving workforce, using PDCA, is better able to innovate and stay ahead of the competition through rigorous problem solving and the subsequent innovations. This also creates a culture of problem solvers using PDCA and creating a culture of critical thinkers.
The Deming Cycle
![Page 20: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
• PLAN establish the objectives and processes necessary to deliver results in accordance with the expected output (the target or goals). By establishing output expectations, the completeness and accuracy of the specification is also a part of the targeted improvement. When possible start on a small scale to test possible effects.
• DO Implement the plan, execute the process, make the product. Collect data for charting and analysis in the following "CHECK" and "ACT" steps.
The Deming Cycle
![Page 21: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
• CHECK Study the actual results (measured and collected in "DO" above) and compare against the expected results (targets or goals from the "PLAN") to discover any differences. Look for deviation in implementation from the plan and also look for the appropriateness and completeness of the plan to enable the execution, i.e., "Do". Charting data can make this much easier to see trends over several PDCA cycles and in order to convert the collected data into information. Information is what you need for the next step "ACT".
The Deming Cycle
![Page 22: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
• ACT Request corrective actions on significant differences between actual and planned results. Analyze the differences to determine their root causes. Determine where to apply changes that will include improvement of the process or product. When a pass through these four steps does not result in the need to improve, the scope to which PDCA is applied may be refined to plan and improve with more detail in the next iteration of the cycle, or attention needs to be placed in a different stage of the process.
The Deming Cycle

FUNDAMENTALS OF TOTAL QUALITY
• Total quality a comprehensive, organization-wide effort to improve the quality of products and service applies not only to large manufacturers, but to small companies alike.
• All organization large and small, manufacturing and service, profit and not-for-profit can benefit from applying the principles of total quality.
![Page 38: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Principles of Total Quality
• Total Quality (TQ) is a people focused management system that aims at continual increase in customer
satisfaction at continually lower real cost. • TQ is a total system approach (not a separate area or program) and an integral part of high
level strategy; it works horizontally across functions and departments, involves all employees, top to bottom, and
extends backward and forward to include the supply chain and the customer chain. TQ stresses learning and adaptation to continual change as
keys to organizational success
![Page 39: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Principles of Total Quality
• The foundation of total quality is philosophical: TQ includes systems, methods, and tools. The systems
• permit change; the philosophy stays the same. TQ is anchored in values that stress the dignity of the
• individual and the power of community action
![Page 40: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Principles of Total Quality
• There probably are as many different approaches to TQ as there are businesses.
However, most share basic elements: (1) customer focus, (2) a process orientation, (3) continuous improvement and learning, (4) empowerment and teamwork, (5) management by fact, and (6) leadership and strategic planning.
![Page 41: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Leadership for Quality
• Leadership is fundamental to management and organizational behavior and is on just about everyone's
short list of basics for organizational success. • Thus it is not surprising that leadership plays crucial role in
the total quality organization. Virtually every article and book written about quality emphasizes leadership.
• is the first category in the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award and is recognized as the "driver“
of successful quality systems.
![Page 42: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Leadership for Quality• Leaders establish unity of purpose and direction of
the organization. • They should create and maintain
the internal environment in which people can become fully involved in achieving the organization's objectives.
• Leaders communicate a vision that turns self-interest into commitment to the job
![Page 43: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Leadership VS. Manager
![Page 44: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Leadership VS. Manager
![Page 45: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
The roles of a Quality Leader
• Underlying the concept of quality leadership are some clear imperatives for managers who aspire to quality leadership.
• First, they must establish a vision. • Second, they must live the values. • Third, they must lead the improvement efforts.
![Page 46: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Establish a Vision
• A vision is a vivid concept of what an organization could be
• It is a dream, both in the sense of being desirable and in the sense of being a long way from the current reality,
but it is not an "impossible dream." A vision should be clear and exciting to an organization's employees.• It should be linked to customers' needs and convey a
general strategy for achieving the mission.
![Page 47: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Live the Values
• All of the vision and values in the world are worthless if
the organization is not continuously making strides to improve its performance in the eyes of customers
• Visions of world-class quality and competitiveness can only be achieved if an organization keeps finding ways to do things a little better and a little faster.
Leaders must be at the center of these efforts
![Page 48: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Lead Continuous Improvement
• Manager's actions can symbolize their commitment to quality-oriented values in many concrete ways.
• For example, they can attend training programs on various aspects of quality, instead of just sending
• others. • They can practice continuous improvement in
processes that they control, such as strategic planning and capital budgeting.
Perhaps most importantly, they can provide adequate funding for quality efforts. So that TQ will not be the "poor cousin" to other business issues.
![Page 49: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
EMPOWERMENT FOR TQ
• Empowerment means giving someone power-granting the authority to do whatever is
necessary to satisfy customers, and trusting employees to make the right choices without waiting for management approval. • By empowering employees, organizations
drive decision making down to its lowest possible level
![Page 50: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
EMPOWERMENT FOR TQ
• Empowerment allows organizations to flatten their organizational structure because fewer
managers are needed to "direct and control“ employees
• It represents a high degree of involvement in which employees make decisions themselves
and are responsible for their outcomes
![Page 51: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
EMPOWERMENT FOR TQ• For empowerment
to occur, managers must undertake tow major initiatives:
• Identify and change organizational conditions that make people powerless, and
• Increase people's confidence that their efforts to accomplish something important will be
successful
![Page 52: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)

Determining the skill level of the employee Providing for employee training as needed Coaching tasks with which the employee has some
skills but is lacking experience or motivation Supporting tasks where the employee knows what to
do but is still lacking confidence in their abilities Delegating tasks where the employee is motivated
and fully capable.
Empowerment Process
![Page 54: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
CASE STUDY TO DISCUSS
![Page 55: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
• Teams could be everywhere in TQ organizations: at the top and bottom and in ever function and department
• The TQ philosophy recognizes the interdependence of the organization and uses teams as a way to coordinate work.
• Teamwork enables various parts of the organization work together in meeting
customer needs that can seldom be fulfilled by employees limited to one area of expertise
TEAMWORK CULTURE FOR TQM
![Page 56: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
• Teams promote equality among individuals, encouraging a positive attitude and trust. • The diversity inherent in tams often provides unique perspective on work, spontaneous thought, and creativity. • teams develop a greater sense of responsibility for achieving goals and performing tasks. • teams provide a variety of benefits that are not derived from individuals working alone
TEAMWORK CULTURE FOR TQM
![Page 57: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
• TQ organizations recognize that the potential contributions of employees are much greater than in
the traditional organization, an teams are an attempt to take advantage this potential. • The competitive environment of modern business requires flexible, fast reaction to changes in customer
demands or technological capacity. • Teams can provide the capacity for rapid response
TEAMWORK CULTURE FOR TQM
![Page 58: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
Types of TQ Teams
• Some common types of teams include :• Steering committees (or quality councils) management teams that lead an organization and provide direction and focus.• Problem-solving teams teams of workers and supervisors that met to address workplace problems involving quality and productivity, or

Steering Committees• Most organizations practicing total quality have a steering
committee, called a quality council or a quality improvement team . • Steering committees are responsible for establishing policy for TQ and for guiding the implementation and evolution of
TQ throughout the organization. • The top manager of the organization is usually on the steering committee,
for example, the Vice President /Director of Total quality. • The steering committee may meet fairly often when a TQ effort is getting started. • This group makes key decisions about the quality process how
quality should be measured and what structures and approaches should be used to improve quality.
• steering committee also frequently reviews the status of TQ and makes the adjustment necessary to ensure customer satisfaction and continuous improvement. • In general, the steering committee has
overall responsibility for the progress and success of the TQ effort

Problem-Solving Teams
• The second, and probably most common, type o team used in TQ is the problem-solving team.
• As the name implies, problem-solving teams work to improve quality by identifying and solving specific quality-related problems facing the organization. Such teams are sometime referred to as corrective
• action teams, or quality circles, although many organizations have created their own names for them.
• Two basic types of problem-solving teams are departmental and cross-functional.
![Page 61: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
Cross-Functional Teams• Cross functional teams are not unique to total quality they are commonly used in new product development
• teams come from several departments or functions, deal with problems that involve a variety
of functions, and typically dissolve after the problem is solved
![Page 62: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
Cross-Functional Teams
• Cross-functional teams make a great deal of sense in an organization devoted to process
improvement. • If a process is to be comprehensively To be effective, cross
functional teams should include people from several departments
![Page 63: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
Criteria for Team Effectiveness
1. Clarity in team goals. As a sound basis, a team agrees on a mission, purpose, and goals.
2. An improvement plan. A plan guides the team in determining schedules and mileposts by helping the team decide what advice, assistance, training, materials, and other resources it may need.
3. Clearly defined roles. All members must understand their duties and know who is responsible for what issues and tasks.
4. Clear communication. Team members should speak with clarity, listen actively, and share information.
5. Beneficial team behaviors. Teams should encourage members to use effective skills and practices to facilitate discussions and meetings.
6. Well-defined decision procedures. Teams should use data as the basis for decisions and learn to reach consensus on important issues.
7. participation. Everyone should participate, contribute their talents, and share commitment to the team's success.
8. Established ground rules. The group outlines acceptable and unacceptable behaviors.
9. Awareness of group process. Team members exhibit sensitivity to nonverbal communication, understand group dynamics, and work on group process issues.
10. Use of the scientific approach. With structured problem-solving processes, teams can more easily find root causes of problems.

Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
![Page 65: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
Why CRM is a Customer and Competitive Necessity
• It typically costs 5-10 times as much to acquire a new customer as it does to retain an existing one.
• “Some companies can boost profits by almost 100% by retaining just 5% more of their customers.” Harvard Business Review (Reicheld & Sasser)
• A recent McKinsey study showed that the average new customer spends $24.50 at a given web site in the first 3 months as a shopper. The average repeat customer spends $52.50 every 3 months.
• Most companies lose 50% of their customers in 5 years (Harvard University)
![Page 66: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
Why CRM is a Customer and Competitive Necessity
• On average only 15% of a site’s customers consider themselves loyal to it. The loyalty rating among people who had experienced a problem was only 6%. Customers who had not experienced problems indicated a customer loyalty rating of 19%. The loyalty rating among customers who had experienced problems but were satisfied with the way they were handled: 21%. (Digital Idea)
• 70% of repeat purchases are made out of indifference to the seller, NOT loyalty. (eLoyalty)
• The web customer is ‘only 1 click away from your competition’.
![Page 67: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
• A business philosophy and set of strategies, programs, and systems that focus on identifying and building loyalty with a retailer’s most valuable customers.
![Page 68: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
CRM
• All customers are not equally profitable, and more or less profitable customers need to be treated differently
• Retailers now concentrate on providing more value to their best customers using targeted promotions and services to increase their share of wallet – the percentage of the customers’ purchases made from the retailer
![Page 69: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
Customer Loyalty
• Committed to purchasing merchandise and services from a retailer
• Resist efforts of competitors to attract the loyal customer
• Emotional attachment to retailer– Personal attention– Memorable positive experiences– Brand building communications programs
![Page 70: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
No! Retail strategies like these
can be copied by competitors
These strategies encourage customers to be always looking for the best deal rather than developing a relationship with a retailer

Collecting Customer Data:Customer Database
• Transactions – a complete history of purchases– Purchase date, price paid, SKUs bought, whether or not the
purchase was stimulated by a promotion
• Customer contacts by retailer (touch points) --visits to web site, inquires to call center, direct mail sent to customer
• Customer preferences• Descriptive information about customer
– Demographic and psychographic data
• Customer’s responses to marketing activities
![Page 73: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
Collecting Customer Data: Identifying Information
Approaches that store-based retailers use:• Asking for identifying information– Telephone number, name and address
• Offering frequent shopper cards– Loyalty programs that identify and provide rewards
to customers who patronize a retailer– Private label credit card (that has the store’s name
on it)• Connecting Internet purchasing data with the
stores
![Page 74: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
• Control over Collection– Do customers know what information is
being collected?– Do customers feel they can decide upon
the amount and type of information collected by retailers?
• Control over Use– Do customers know how the information
will be used by the retailer?– Will the retailer share the information with
third parties?

Protecting Customer Privacy:Differences between U.S. and EU
United States• Limited protection in specific
areas– Credit reporting– Video rentals– Banking– Medical records
• Opt out: Consumers must explicitly tell retailers not to use their personal information
European Union• Stringent consumer privacy laws
– Information only can be collected for specific purposes
– Purpose must be disclosed to customer– Information can only be used for specific
purpose– Information cannot be exported to
countries with less stringent regulations• Opt in: Consumers own their personal
information, and retailers must get consumers to explicitly agree to share this personal information

Customer Value
• Customers seek to maximize value by:– estimating which offer (product/firm) delivers the most
value– forming an expectation of value and acting upon it
(purchase)– evaluating their usage experience against the expectations
![Page 78: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)

• Quality: totality of all features and characteristics of product or service that satisfy stated or implied needs.
• Understanding the Role of Quality– The core product is not enough– Supplemental products are critical
• Delivering Superior Quality (four issues)– Understand customers’ expectations, needs, and wants– Translate customer research into specifications for quality– Deliver on specifications– Promise only what can be delivered

Customer Service PhilosophyThe core of customer satisfaction is COMPANY CULTURE
• Company Culture cascades from top Management• Customers sense that your company is unique and different• Customers know that you have their best interest at heart
A Golden Rule of Company Culture: Companies must take care of their own people first. When that is done, the customers they service are naturally happier.
The Customer comes Second
![Page 95: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/95.jpg)
Build a Customer-Oriented Culture• Employees will treat customers the way they are treated by Management.
Employee belief system
Employee Relations Customers and Suppliers
Those who are not served well will not serve well.
BusinessCulture

Who Companies need to Hire Hire people who are good with people, rather than just their
technical abilities and/or product knowledge.
Hire those who possess attributes that cannot be easily taught.
• Attitude: A fundamentally positive attitude toward work
• Co-operation: enthusiastic of work interdependency
• Energy: Have a “fire” to accomplish
• Service Ethic: Doing what is right without regard for profit (If you do the right thing, you will ultimately profit)
![Page 97: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/97.jpg)
Employee RelationsProvide an environment where employees are happy to serve your
Company and hence, serve your customers.
•Encourage employees to look at work as a fun and personal experience and to enjoy coming to work every morning.
• Instill ‘Company Family’ values to enhance employees’ sense of belonging and pride. Invite family members of employees to join corporate social activities.
• Employees must feel unafraid to make decisions impacting their self-esteem
![Page 98: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/98.jpg)
What’s in it for the EmployeeBOSS CUSTOMER
SALES EMPLOYEE
“The boss is getting business, the customer is
getting what he/she wants, so what’s in it for me”?
Managers should take an active responsibility to diversify job descriptions with sales employees’ career goals .
![Page 99: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/99.jpg)
Caring in Business
If you expect 100% from employees, then give them 100%.
“Without caring, there can be no quality. Caring for customers leads to productivity,
innovativeness, comfort and initiation from the customer ”.
When employees get 100%, customers get 100%.
![Page 100: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/100.jpg)
Vision and Mission• Make employees aware of and involve them in setting the company’s ongoing vision and mission of business.
• When employees can’t decide what course of action to take, train them to go back to the company’s mission statement to help them.
• Post the company customer service philosophy over your offices so that employees are continually reminded of their job goals.
Every employee is part of a company’s vision for itself
![Page 101: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/101.jpg)
Communicate for Internal HarmonyFor Managers: Share company information without reservation..
• Let employees know where the company is headed and that they are a critical contribution to the company’s growth.
• Encourage and regularly arrange for open dialogue between employees and Management to find out perceptions that may affect employee attitude and motivation.
To get desired behavior from employees, Management must know what employees are thinking about the company they work for.
![Page 102: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/102.jpg)
Instilling Sales Philosophy• Do not react negatively to negative customer behavior.
• Never say NO to a customer. Find a way to maintain contact.
• Employees must believe that the customer is the center of the company’s universe.
• Encourage employees at every organizational level to reveal information that could benefit the company’s growth.
Correct communication is the key to positive customers
![Page 103: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/103.jpg)
Service in Action
Customer Service means taking someone else’s problem upon yourself and fixing it for them. Being liked is not the only goal.
How to handle BAD CUSTOMERS (S-A-V-E):
1. Sympathize: Agree with the customer’s complaint. 2. Act: Take action so that the customer believes that he/she is
getting immediate attention.3. Vindicate: Let them know how rare the problem is. “This is not
a normal occurrence in our company.” 4. Eat Something: Give the customer an unexpected ‘goodie’
before they leave.
![Page 104: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/104.jpg)
Bottom-Line Thinking• Making service possible requires being realistic. Do not expect ideal performance, and do not create the hope of unusual possibility.
Today, the monetary unit is not the Dollar. It is the MINUTE
• Customers make a decision based not only on price, but also on how much time they have to invest to get benefit out of a product. Time is a VALUE UNIT.
![Page 105: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/105.jpg)
Customer Focus
Saturate the company with the voice of the customer
• Work as if there is a customer watches your actions all the time.
• Identify specific ways to measure customer service success.
• Conduct customer focus groups to get consumer reactions.
• Constantly rethink customer service policies to fit Company goals.
• Always express gratitude to the customers that bring business.
![Page 106: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/106.jpg)
Re-Engineering
• Re-Engineering is complex, costly, and time-consuming. - It is an option if the organization has a goal of long-term
change and profitability.
• This process is connected to Total Quality Management (TQM) where procedures and protocols are revised and updated to reduce time and cost
Better customer service is a result of enforcing quality

The 6 Steps to Customer Quality
1. Research Customer Service trends and philosophy.
2. Get data on problems faced by customers.
3. Define BURNING ISSUES from the data.
4. Identify root processes of burning issues.
5. Modify existing processes/create new ones.
6. Indulge in Continuous Improvement.
![Page 109: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/109.jpg)
Step 1: Education Get journal articles on TQM, research guiding principles, and case-studies.
Attend seminars on the subject and talk with prospective consultants.
Be committed to learning and getting TQM training.
Organize your time to accommodate this important step because only then can subsequent steps be followed
![Page 110: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/110.jpg)
Step 2: Assessment
Ask employees and customers: 1. What do you think should be stopped
here?2. What should we start doing here?3. What are the things we ought to keep
doing?
Give them an open ended survey and ask them to track their observations for 3 weeks by completing sentences like ‘I wish we would stop…’, ‘I hope we continue to…’, and ‘I wish we could start…’.
![Page 111: Quality Management BUS 424](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/5681688e550346895ddf124d/html5/thumbnails/111.jpg)
Step 3. Determine Burning IssuesThe WHY Technique: When faced with a problem,
don’t ask WHY just once .
Why are we getting customer complaints about our product?
Because we are shipping out the wrong product!
Why are we shipping out the wrong product?
Why can’t the warehouse manager read the 4th copy?
Because it is difficult to read the 4th copy of the order form!
Because we are using a 150-year old print wheel!
Burning Issue
Core of the Burning Issue

Step 4. Critical Process Management
• Determine CRITICAL PROCESSES related to customer service in your organization.
• How long do these processes take? (Are there any unnecessary steps that can be eliminated?)
