When Should the Customer & Quality Engage? • Too often engagement occurs when a problem happens • This is frequently during Production & Deployment • By this time, technical requirements are set, and product yields are difficult to improve We Work Well with the Customer to Fix Problems

What the Customer Needs From Us • Mission Success – Understanding the technical requirements

What the Customer Needs From Us • Mission Success – Understanding the technical requirements • Predictability – Being able to forecast and meet schedule milestones • Value – Understanding what drives cost and how to control it Quality Brings Minimal Value if We Engage After Design

Most Decisions Affecting Quality (Cost) Occur Early Design Assurance High ability to influence life

Most Decisions Affecting Quality (Cost) Occur Early Design Assurance High ability to influence life cycle cost (70 to 75% of cost decisions made) Less ability to influence life cycle cost (85% of cost decisions made) Little ability to influence life cycle cost (90 to 95% of cost decisions made) Minimum ability to influence life cycle cost (95% of cost decisions made) Quality’s Customer Engagement Must Shift AEROSPACE REPORT NO. TOR-2009(8591)-11

Three Types of Quality Management • Inspective Quality Management (reactive) • “Sift and sort”

Three Types of Quality Management • Inspective Quality Management (reactive) • “Sift and sort” approach • Measure after the fact • “Do Better” the next time • Corrective Quality Management (pro-active) • Measure during the process • Make adjustments “On-the-Fly” • Low flexibility for product/process revisions • Process Focused Quality Management (pre-emptive) • Characterize process and product behavior • Simulate/Predict performance • Design process for desired result Quality Can Bring Value to the Customer During Design and Development LSL USL

Understanding TRLs and MRLs • Engineering design requirements do not always match Manufacturing process

Understanding TRLs and MRLs • Engineering design requirements do not always match Manufacturing process capability • Existing Designs – Use SPC to determine the Voice of the Process – Communicate with Manufacturing and Engineering – Changes yield improved first pass yield (FPY), decreased cost and improved cycle time • New Designs – Collaboration among Engineering, Manufacturing, Quality and Programs to communicate process capabilities to customer – Engineering uses capability data during new product development – Produce product with higher FPY and lower cost Provide the Customer with Cost Trade Information

Process Capability What Is Process Capability? Process capability is the baseline measurement of how a process is performing. The “Y” Time The “Y” Centering – Put The Process On Target Spread – Reduce The Variation A Simple Tool that can Predict Yields and Gives Customer Confidence in Performance

QUALITY BY DESIGN TOOLS • International Quality Standards for Key Characteristics and Process Capability

QUALITY BY DESIGN TOOLS • International Quality Standards for Key Characteristics and Process Capability • Predicting First Pass Yield during Design Phase • Reconciliation of the maturity of Technical Requirement Levels (TRLs) with Manufacturing Readiness Levels (MRLs) • Advanced Product Quality Plan (APQP): four phase process for developing new products – Production Part Approval Process (PPAP): determines if all customer and Design specification requirements are properly understood and that processes have the potential to produce products meeting these requirements International AS&D Industry is Focusing on Early Engagement
