How did you start the “Quality Month” initiative

Most of those of us who work in analysis have experience carrying out Quality Month campaigns. How did you use such campaigns to enhance the status of your department, and what was your slogan usually?

In the development of the company, I will firmly uphold the concept that \"quality is in my heart and in my hands,\" and with a resolute attitude of \"not producing, not accepting, and not passing on defective products,\" I will work diligently to improve the quality of the company’s products. ”                That day, red banners covered with slogans promoting quality fluttered in the wind along the company’s main roads. At 8 a.m., the employees in each workshop lined up neatly, and the company’s senior management arrived at each workshop on time to deliver brief but enthusiastic speeches, which were met with warm applause from the employees. Subsequently, the supervisors of each workshop led their employees in reading the quality oath, and took the lead in signing their names on it solemnly. A concise and passionate oath, along with a brief ceremony of taking oaths, inspired the employees with a strong determination to produce high-quality products and build up the Bolon brand. They all expressed their commitment to fulfilling their promises through concrete actions. “After the launch of the \"Quality Activity Month,\" the company first carried out Audit reviews in a thorough manner and began to vigorously implement quality improvement plans. The company insists on conducting Audit reviews twice a week, with participation from everyone, from the general manager to the workshop staff, to jointly identify and address issues. Regular follow-up meetings are held every Thursday to discuss actions needed for more significant and serious problems, assigning specific responsibilities for carrying out those corrective actions. After the meeting, the persons responsible for making the necessary corrections promptly assembled a team to carry out those tasks, working day and night according to the set deadlines, and completed all the required corrections within the specified time frame. After more than a month of effort, the product deduction scores dropped significantly, and the overall quality awareness among all employees improved greatly. To recognize the conscientious, meticulous, and hardworking efforts of those responsible for the corrections, the company also awarded them a total of 1,680 yuan in incentives, which greatly boosted their enthusiasm.   Improving employees’ operational skills is a key factor in enhancing product quality. In June, the company’s Human Resources department took the initiative to contact the labor authorities and organized an 8-day training program on theoretical and practical welding skills, attended by over 100 employees from across the company. Theory and practical skill tests were conducted for the trainees, which significantly improved the skills of the frontline workers and played a vital role in ensuring higher product quality. In January, the \"Quality Activity Month\" was launched on a full scale, quickly exerting a positive and widespread impact. After customers submitted their plans for this activity month to our company, the quality and production departments sent personnel there on several occasions to observe, exchange ideas, and learn from the experience, giving high praise to the positive effects resulting from these activities. During the company’s \"Quality Month\" in February and March this year, the Quality Department also carefully organized a series of activities, including company-wide skill competitions for operators, evaluations of quality excellence winners, and a speech contest themed \"Quality in My Heart\". We believe that as various activities take place in July and August, the \"Quality Activity Month\" will reach even greater intensity, and there will be further improvements in product quality! Key activities for the “Quality Month” in February and March February: ● Each workshop will assign 3–4 team leaders to the Quality Department to experience quality inspection work ;   ●Company-level operational staff skills competition ;   March: ● Training for special job types, quality awareness training ;      ●Quality Model Awards, Star Evaluation, and Symposium for Members of Model and Star Families ;    ●Quality Satisfaction Survey ;      ●“\"Quality in My Heart\" Speech Contest ;      ●Summary meeting for quality activities.

Our slogan is “Better today than yesterday.” Our process is as follows: 1. First, communicate with the company’s manager to obtain his approval; 2. Present your activity plan; 3. Hold a quality meeting where you present your plan and seek input from relevant departments to gather various ideas; 4. Implement incentive mechanisms; 5. Form an activity team – the leader will naturally be the manager, the deputy leaders will be the heads of various workshops and departments, as well as you yourself. And who make up the team members? 6. Class leaders should have blackboard newspapers to keep track of the progress of the activity month, and outstanding groups and individuals should be praised in a timely manner. 7. A mobilization meeting should be held before the start of the activity month. 8. There must be numerical data regarding the results; remember, this information must be accurate – no falsification is allowed, otherwise your department will lose its credibility in the future. 9. Prepare a summary of the work carried out during the activity month and submit it to the relevant supervisors. 10. The supervisors should provide funds to reward the individuals involved, and they should deliver a speech at the summary meeting; the money should be placed in envelopes and given directly to the relevant people at that meeting. The event month is over

I think it’s very necessary to carry out this activity; it helps people stay aware of product quality at all times, and it’s a good initiative

It can definitely boost the prestige of the quality inspection department

I have been involved in similar activities before; in most cases, the form outweighed the substance – things seemed lively on the surface, but in reality everything went its usual way. To ensure quality, in addition to strict supervision systems, it is best to establish clear reward and punishment systems within daily production processes. Severe penalties should be imposed for mistakes, without any leniency, while those who make contributions should be rewarded generously, without being stingy. This approach is far more effective than temporary campaign months.

One of the activities our company holds every year is writing articles

I think the key is to do a good job in the analysis and ensure it’s thorough. Our analysis is ultimately aimed at serving production; trying to improve our status through various quality campaigns or similar initiatives is of little significance. It’s better to save costs and buy some analytical instruments.
