Design and implementation of quality plans
When we talk about perceived quality we mean quality from the point of view of the consumer.
The customer will look at the intrinsic characteristics of the product, comparing them with the ability to meet their specific needs.
Consumers cannot assess many of the characteristics of the products.
Quality, on the other hand, requires a permanent effort to stay at its proper level and the setbacks are difficult to recover.
True quality is only feasible when considering the needs and desires of customers and consumers.
Quality must understand every corner of the company. That is why quality is built and generated in every activity, task and process of the company.
ISO 9001:2000 "Quality Management Systems.
ISO 9004:2000: "Quality management systems.
ISO 9000:2000 "Quality Management Systems.
Principles and Vocabulary" Describes the fundamentals of quality management systems and specifies terminology.
It contains only the minimum requirements of a quality management system to be certified.
Guide to Continuous Improvement" provides guidelines that consider both the efficiency and efficiency of the quality management system.
Advantages of in-company certification
It assumes a competitive advantage to the company and encourages the development of the company.
Facilitates access to new markets and international expansion.
It denotes a concern with the environment.
Facilitates continuous improvement.
Introduces rationality to production processes.
Gives a picture of consumer confidence
It is a defense against unfair competition.
It allows to know what the changes are in the internal and external environment and how to guide them according to the client and the user.
Achieving quality in a process requires designing it in order to achieve products and services that meet a need.
Responsibilities should not be assigned by obligation, they must be part of each other's desire.
The company that implements a Total Quality system often reduces its costs considerably.
This process is convenient to divide it into the following phases:
Phase II: Scenario Preparation and Promotion
Phase IV: Interfunctional Consolidation and Optimization
Phase I: Decision Making
It consists of seriously analysing whether there is a willingness to do whatever is necessary to undertake and maintain this process properly.
Managers have to devote time and resources, guide administrative management, accept all concepts and principles
Phase III: Implementation of Improvement Processes
Some of the actions recommended at this stage are: Develop an intense program of dissemination of concepts and philosophy of quality to internalize it in people as a means of achieving their involvement and commitment.
In this phase will be started the improvement processes with the participation of the improvement teams, WISH for this moment have been sufficiently trained in improvement techniques and problem solving.
This phase will continue to develop improvement processes and continue training in more advanced quality techniques.
Importance of continuous improvement
The Improvement Process
It is that its application can help to improve weaknesses and strengthen the strengths of the organization.
The pursuit of excellence comprises a process of accepting a new challenge every day.
The improvement process is an effective means of developing positive changes that will save money
This process also involves investing in new, more efficient high-tech machinery and equipment
Management is responsible for enunciating the company's philosophy, company goals, measurable goals and strategy for change.
A process must be established that identifies the most critical problems, determines their causes, and finds solutions.
Characteristic
Objective of quality circulations
Voluntary: The circles are not imposed, it is each worker who decides whether or not to participate.
Remuneration: The time workers spend in circles is paid for by the company.
Participation: even if the boss is part of the group, it is not he who makes the decisions, it is the group that does it.
Training: Members should receive ongoing training so that they can participate appropriately
Commitment: The management of the organization must be committed to the circles and must provide the necessary assistance and advice to the groups.
Periodicity: They meet at fixed intervals, ideally once a week.
Size: Must have minimum 4 and maximum 15 members, the ideal number would be located near 8.
Permanence: circles are not structured to fix problems then disjointed, they must remain in time
They are basically as follows:
Improve quality through the mentalization of the organization in the work well done and in the need to continuously improve processes and actions.
Generate a better working environment, fostering spaces of participation and dialogue, in which the worker participates in decision-making and proposes solutions.
Improve communication horizontally and vertically in organizations, i.e. both between workers and between workers and directive and vice versa.
Teaming
From this arise two important concepts of clarification: team and teamwork.
Teamwork refers to the series of strategies, procedures and methodologies that a human group uses to achieve the proposed goals.
In a team it is necessary to promote a process in which aspects related to the following concepts are explored and developed:
Cohesión.
Assignment of roles and standards.
Comunicación.
Definition of objectives.
Interdependencia.
The team is the set of assigned or self-assigned people, according to specific skills and competencies
Conditions to be met by team members:
To have a spirit of self-criticism and constructive criticism.
Have a sense of responsibility to meet the goals
Be loyal to yourself and others.
Have the capacity for self-determination, optimism, initiative and tenacity.
Being able to build satisfactory relationships with team members
Have concern for improvement, for overcoming.
A cost-benefit analysis is used to determine whether the benefits of a given process or procedure are in proportion to the costs.
How to develop a cost-benefit analysis:
Estimate investment costs.
Estimate additional annual operating costs.
Estimate annual cost savings.
Classify the impact of alternatives by studying which problems they eliminate.
Evaluate customer satisfaction by eliminating alternatives that reduce it.
Calculate net annual operating costs.
Calculate the annual costs of investment costs.
Calculate the total annual costs (sum of the above).
Revise los datos y clasifique las alternativas según el orden relativo de importancia.
The organization must make creativity a way to solve and prevent problems, meet new needs and requirements of internal and external customers.
Innovation
It refers to radical contributions or large changes made <br>soradically by specialists in the respective subjects

Productivity can be defined as the relationship between the quantity of goods and services produced and the amount of resources used.
Productivity assesses the system's ability to produce products that are required while at the same time the degree to which the resources used are leveraged, i.e. value added.
Having an adequate design of customer service is premise to work for an adequate business competitiveness.
An organization, whatever the activity it carries out, if it wants to maintain an adequate level of long-term competitiveness
The ability of a public or private organization, whether lucrative or not, to systematically maintain comparative advantages that enable it to achieve, sustain and improve a certain position in the socio-economic environment.
They are divided between internal and external non-quality costs
Internal failures: They occur before the sale is made, i.e. the product has not reached the customer.
External failures: External failures occur when the product has already been sold, it is already in the hands of the customer.
In turn in non-quality costs we can distinguish between tangible costs and intangible costs:
Tangible costs: these are those that are objectively calculated and easily translated into money.
Intangible costs: their calculation is subjective, they are not easily quantifiable.
There are some techniques for calculating the cost of non-quality or the price of non-compliance. Among the most important are:
Assigned Workmanship
Default Price
Price per Person
Ideal Deviation
Accounting Items
This technique uses the account list or ledger of the company, division, or department to locate the accounts that
This technique is basically used to calculate the cost of having positions whose only activity is based on correcting or amending the defective.
It includes the calculation of man-hours and other expenses involving a task specifically aimed at detecting
This technique is particularly useful when there are multiple incidents.
The deviation from the ideal can be used to compare how much energy or raw material a process is currently consuming, against the amount for which it was designed to consume.
To use docile language to implement a total quality system or an international standard is then to adopt the attitude of Wanting to teach or allow us to be taught.
Language is a good when we make ourselves understood, that is, when others understand what we want to communicate; then it's a bad thing when we don't make ourselves understood by others.
It is a set of quality standards established by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) that can be applied in any type of organization (production company, service company, public administration).
The main benefits are:
Reduction of rejections and incidents in the production or provision of the service.
Increased productivity
Increased commitment to customer requirements.
Continuos Improvement
It is an accreditation with recognition and validity at the international level, focused on the establishment of a management system and environmental policies within a company or organization.
Some of its benefits are:
Increased efficiency in the use of energy and raw materials
Improves the chances of complying with environmental regulations
Establish a reliable and autonomous system in the company
Improves the public image
It is internationally recognized and many of its requirements are the basis for obtaining certifications in foreign countries

Port Security
In the arduous and ongoing struggle for competition between ports and within ports, the search for differentiations and competitive advantages are key elements
Sustainable development is a permanent concern of the different productive and service activities and particularly of the port system.
Port security is a major element in reducing risk and costs in modern port systems A safe port is an indicator and a seal of its comprehensive improvement.
ISO 9001:2000
Aplication
ISO 9000:2000 is an introduction to the main standards and a vital element of the new main sets of standards on quality management systems.
outlines the requirements for a quality management system that can be used by an organization to increase customer satisfaction by meeting established requirements
All requirements of this International Standard are generic and are intended to apply to all organizations regardless of their type, size and product supplied.
Quality system documentation
Documented quality system procedures:
Each documented procedure must cover a part of the system
Quality Manuals:
A quality manual can:
Be a compilation of documented procedures.
Be a series of documented procedures for specific applications.
Be more than one document or level.
Have a common nucleus with appropriate appendages.
Have numerous possible referrals based on organizational needs.
The quality manual should refer to documented quality system procedures designed to plan and manage all quality-affecting activities within an organization.
It is the user who will determine the number of documented procedures, the volume of each and the nature of its format
Documented quality system procedures must form it basic documentation used for general planning and management of activities that have an impact on quality
This standard describes a typical hierarchy of quality system documentation in Annex A.
Process Reengineering
Features of Process Reengineering
It is a technique by which the operation of one or more processes within a company is analyzed in depth in order to completely and substantially redesign them in order to bring greater value to the customer.
The changes it proposes are final, not gradual or partial
Refers to "processes" as the set of activities that transforms inputs into value outputs for the customer and also consumes resources"
It seeks to get to the root of things, so it's not just about improving processes, it's about "reinventing them."
It is not a restructuring, but a "reinvention" of the company
It involves developing new procedures that challenge what we do.
It is not a reorganization, but a radical change, a "re-doing"
