1. Introduction: -
Total Quality Management is a management approach that originated in the
1950's and has steadily become more popular since the early 1980's. TQM is
mainly concerned with continuous improvement in all work, from high level
strategic planning and decision-making, to detailed execution of work elements on
the shop floor. A preliminary step in TQM implementation is to assess the
organization's current reality. TQM encourages participation amongst shop floor
workers and managers. It should be kept in mind that TQM should be purpose
driven. Be clear on the organization's vision for the future and stay focused on it.
TQM can be a powerful technique for unleashing employee creativity and
potential, reducing bureaucracy and costs, and improving service to clients and the
community.
the help of tool called TQM. Total quality management is called total because
entire organization is involved, Quality means degree of excellence. And
management in literal sense means getting things done by others. In a TQM effort,
all members of an organization participate in improving processes, products,
services and the culture in which they work. The earlier introduced quality
management concept is now taken over by Total quality management. To have
effective TQM the first requirement is strong internal motivation and emotional
involvement for implementation. So the concept of TQM talks about adopting the
new policy, creating quality products, eliminate defects, estimate for breakdown,
accidents etc. Hence TQM should be purpose driven so first the whole organization
should be willing to accept the change then only TQM can actually affect the
organization in a positive way.
Companies who have implemented TQM include Ford Motor Company, Phillips
Semiconductor, SGL Carbon, Motorola and Toyota Motor Company.
TQM is the concept that quality can be managed and that it is a process. The
following information is provided to give an understanding of the key elements of
this process.
Many TQM experts use special terms to explain TQM, such as the voice of
the customer table, QFD implementation, Cross-Functional Management, and
Hosing Planning (some terms are mis-defined). These terms are confusing to many
people, particularly novices, in many companies. The initial, simplistic step of
implementing TQM is to determine the organization’s goals or obstacles according
to the dream oriented or problem oriented approach. In Japan, almost every
company uses the problem oriented approach during the initial phases of TQM.
Everyone, from top management to the line workers in an organization, determines
and defines the problems. Each employee defines the problems using a statement
beginning with "I don’t like to . . ." This is a key issue. Jobs listed this way by each
employee are not only the employee’s problems, but also the organization’s
problems. Using an approach like this is good because it not only helps pinpoint
problems; it also opens up discussion within the organization.

3. Benefits of TQM: -
Total Quality Management (TQM) is very important for Quality assurance in
manufacturing. TQM combines the benefits of a Statistical Process Control system
with a variety of other functionality including continuous improvement through
corrective action. Without a system to hold your employees and departments
responsible for their actions, it is almost impossible to ensure the quality of your
products.

7. b. 5S (Methodology)
'5S' is the name of a workplace organization methodology that uses a list of
five Japanese words which are Seiri, Seiton, Seiso, Seiketsu and Shitskuke.
Transliterated and translated into English, start with the letter S. The list describes
how items are stored and how the new order is maintained. The decision making
process usually comes from a dialogue about standardization which builds a clear
understanding among employees of how work should be done. It also instills
ownership of the process in each employee.
Phase 1 - Sorting: Go through all tools, materials, etc., in the plant and work
area. Keep only essential items. Everything else is stored or discarded.
Phase 2 - Straightening or Setting in Order: There should be a place for
everything and everything should be in its place. The place for each item
and practices. The TPS organizes manufacturing and logistics for the automobile
manufacturer, including interaction with suppliers and customers. The system is a
major precursor of the more generic "Lean manufacturing." Taiichi Ohno, Shigeo
Shingo and Eiji Toyoda developed the system between 1948 and 1975.
Goals:-The main objectives of the TPS are to design out overburden (Muri) and
inconsistency (Mura), and to eliminate waste (muda). The most significant effects
on process value delivery are achieved by designing a process capable of
delivering the required results smoothly; by designing out "Mura" (inconsistency).
It is also crucial to ensure that the process is as flexible as necessary without stress
or "Muri" (overburden) since this generates "muda" (waste). Finally the tactical
improvements of waste reduction or the elimination of muda are very valuable.
There are seven kinds of muda that are addressed in the TPS:
1) Over-production
2) Motion (of operator or machine)
3) Waiting (of operator or machine)
4) Conveyance
5) Processing itself
6) Inventory (raw material)
7) Correction (rework and scrap)

8. a. Six Sigma: -
Introduction: - Six Sigma is a business management strategy originally developed
by Motorola, USA in 1981. As of 2010, it enjoys widespread application in many
sectors of industry, although its application is not without controversy.
Six Sigma seeks to improve the quality of process outputs by identifying and
removing the causes of defects (errors) and minimizing variability in
manufacturing and business processes. It uses a set of quality management
methods, including statistical methods, and creates a special infrastructure of
people within the organization ("Black Belts", "Green Belts", etc.) who are experts
in these methods. Each Six Sigma project carried out within an organization
follows a defined sequence of steps and has quantified targets. These targets can be
financial (cost reduction or profit increase) or whatever is critical to the customer
of that process (cycle time, safety, delivery, etc.).
Six Sigma identifies several key roles for its successful implementation.
Executive Leadership includes the CEO and other members of top management.
They are responsible for setting up a vision for Six Sigma implementation. They
also empower the other role holders with the freedom and resources to explore new
ideas for breakthrough improvements.
time on ensuring consistent application of Six Sigma across various functions and
departments.
Black Belts operate under Master Black Belts to apply Six Sigma
methodology to specific projects. They devote 100% of their time to Six Sigma.
They primarily focus ona Six Sigma project execution, whereas Champions and
Master Black Belts focus on identifying projects/functions for Six Sigma.
Green Belts, the employees who take up Six Sigma implementation along
with their other job responsibilities, operate under the guidance of Black Belts.

Indian Model
It is basically to control the process or help to follow particular rules of
regulation in a company. Indian model was stating from British time, that time
worker was use to follow the order when any top rank people gives any order the
lower rank person should follow. After this model come in to Indian quality
control model now any type decision company going to take they call a top
management meeting and they decide what have to do and how to control the
process and how many thing we have to consideration.
A top to down approach (is also known as step-wise design) is essentially the
breaking down of a system to gain insight into its compositional sub-systems. In a
top-down approach an overview of the system is first formulated, specifying but
not detailing any first-level subsystems. Each subsystem is then refined in yet
greater detail, sometimes in many additional subsystem levels, until the entire
specification is reduced to base elements.
A. Start at the top Can you inspire yourself Absolutely. Think about your
business plan. Consider the quality of life of your employees and what the
company means to their livelihood. Think about why you started your
company and what moved you to want to be successful in the first place.
B. Ask questions. People feel valuable when they’re asked about what’s
important to them. Find out what’s meaningful to your employees and what
inspires them to do good work. Make sure they know you’re sincere, too.
Sending out a broadcast e-mail or memo is probably not appropriate here;
instead, try to be more spontaneous, informal, and personal. Weave your
questions into conversations and then make and keep good mental notes.
Write down what they say if necessary and then do what you can to create an
environment that supports what you’ve gleaned through your “research.”
C. Add some fun. All work and no fun make for a pretty boring workplace; it
doesn’t do much for inspiration either. Infuse your office and the lives of
your employees with some fun. Celebrate small milestones like the
completion of half a report or an employee’s newfound skill as the go-to
person for help with the copy machine. Present cupcakes to employees
having a birthday. Bring in lunch occasionally or serve your staff ice cream
at the next meeting
D. Recognize and reward. Nothing inspires people to work hard like a public
pat on the back. Expressing your happiness with a job well done is important
not only for the person receiving the praise but for colleagues, too. Public
expression of kudos makes people feel good and motivates others to work
hard so that they too will be recognized for their contributions.
E. Start a speaker’s bureau. You’re not the only one who can benefit from
the wisdom of a motivational speaker. Consider bringing in experts who
know how to get people on their feet. Many companies hold “Lunch and
Learn” sessions during which a speaker talks about a specific work-related
topic during the lunch hour. Find local speakers willing to talk for nothing or
a modest fee by inquiring at your local chamber of commerce, asking around
at various networking events, and just by some general snooping. You’d be
surprised at the level of talent in your own backyard
F. Listen to gripes, whining, and bad news. If you consistently ignore the
complaints -- and you’re bound to have them -- your people will lose faith in
your ability to lead. Listening to bad news is actually a perfect opportunity
to inspire. Once people know they’ve been heard, they are often primed for
something positive. Acknowledge their concerns, thank them for having the
courage to speak up, and then try your best to do something about it. A
cheerleading squad is essential in the workplace, but the players also need an
opportunity to think and regroup
A. To inquire something.
B. To convey some information.
C. To seek help.
D. To help others.
E. To coordinate with each other.

Problem solving and decision-making are important skills for business and
life. Problem-solving often involves decision-making, and decision-making is
especially important for management and leadership. There are processes and
techniques to improve decision-making and the quality of decisions. Decision-
making is more natural to certain personalities, so these people should focus more
on improving the quality of their decisions. People that are less natural decision-
makers are often able to make quality assessments, but then need to be more
decisive in acting upon the assessments made. Problem-solving and decision-
making are closely linked, and each requires creativity in identifying and
developing options, for which the brainstorming technique is particularly useful.
See also the free SWOT analysis template and examples, and PEST analysis
template, which help decision-making and problem-solving. SWOT analysis helps
assess the strength of a company, a business proposition or idea; PEST analysis
helps to assess the potential and suitability of a market. Good decision-making
requires a mixture of skills: creative development and identification of options,
clarity of judgment, firmness of decision, and effective implementation. For group
problem-solving and decision-making, or when a consensus is required, workshops
help, within which you can incorporate these tools and process as appropriate.
Here are some useful methods for effective decision-making and problem-solving:
First a simple step-by-step process for effective decision-making and problem-
solving.
Hierarchy
More easy control over the resources because with it resources can be
rationed and allocated to different units to use them to their most productive uses at
micro level.
1. Clearly defined reporting lines make it easy for employees to know to whom
to report.
2. Reduce redundancies by eliminating extra and unproductive processes
3. Stream line processes by giving it more focus and adoptive nature.
4. It helps to reduce costs because the controlling of various cost control
centers are controlled at micro level.
5. It gives focus and direction to an organization.
12. 3-D Model: - Quality control is a process by which entities review the
quality of all factors involved in production. This approach places an emphasis on
three aspects. Elements such as controls, job management, defined and well
managed processes, performance and integrity criteria, and identification of
records

‘JAI’ 3-D Model
India is known for their hard work and the best brains, Indians do have a
tendency of working hard and providing the best possible results. Laborious work
are better done in India as well as best brains working on project helps the
companies to deal in better manner.
Combining these three found 3-D JAI Model will give a better product with
better process and better systems so that the output to the world will be improving
every day. We need to work together to provide better services to the world and do
have an advantage of gaining better exposure and better output.
13. Conclusion:-
As per the study carried out in this paper, it is been realized that every
country has its own strength and different competitive advantage. Every country
has its own core competencies which has led them to succeed in many areas.3D
approach leads to the combination of these competencies to make world know
about novel systems and products and to provide world with better future prospects
up till now every country was working for their own profits and gains but there
was no common platform so that a better business world is developed rather than
competing to each other it is lucrative to work together and provide a better
platform for Innovation, Improvement and Hierarchical aspects. I will like to
conclude that this business scenario could be better if JAI works together and
provide a better platform for business.
The involvement of work people in Japan has lead mainly to process
improvement rather than to product improvement, Sorting go through all tools,
materials, etc. In the plant and work area keep only essential items. Everything else
is stored or discarded. Workers should not have to repetitively bend to access
materials. Each tool, part, supply, piece of equipment, etc. should be kept close to
where it will be used Keep the workplace clean as well as neat Maintain and
review standards When an issue arises such as a suggested improvement, a new
way of working . So JAI is perfect model.
