The quality plan should focus on providing action to prevent

Any control system based on detection of poor quality by poor

is a vital component of Total Quality Management.

Numbers and measurements are necessary for the processes to be

known. If inputs and the outputs can be measured and expressed in numbers,

The size of measurement task must be managed so that a reasonable
