ASSURANCE OF QUALITY CHARACTERISTICS
As its name suggests, the concern of quality assurance is to assure the agreed-upon quality characteristics, that is, to ensure through suitable inspections that they have been adhered to and achieved.
These tasks range across the entire value-creation chain, beginning with initial sampling (EMPB), to incoming goods inspection (WE), inspection in production, statistical process control (SPC), monitoring of assembly, the inspection equipment used, on through to the outgoing goods inspection (WA).
RQM provides modules and functions for all of these tasks and requirements; for details select the desired module on the right.
