Operation Quality

BOOK JACKET SUMMARY

While working at several companies, Mr. Sawzin presented training on Quality Management, Statistical Process Control, Computer Aided Design, Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing, Problem Solving and Decision Making, and New Engineer Employee Orientation. The training included the presentation of works by Deming, Moen, Crosby, Kepner-Tregoe, ANSI Y14.5 and others. During this time Mr. Sawzin observed that not one quality technique can stand alone. Process Improvement requires the use of all these techniques. This book presents how to use these techniques coordinated together to improve a process. Mr. Sawzin has spent a life working career on applying training and quality research in real life applications and work environments. During this time Mr. Sawzin has proven the intent of these techniques and theories in real work applications while working with factory and office workers, and as a trainer, Standards Engineer, New Product Engineer, Design Draftsman, and Tool Designer. Mr. Sawzin shows these applications within this book.
