    Explanation of Quality Environmental Approach 5

    Ans:-

    Quality social approachBusiness conditions are changing and

    evolving so as the economic environment. In this competitive environment,organization requires new approaches to survive. Quality is becoming primepriority for most of the organizations and implementing a quality system requiresmanagement commitment to develop a quality assurance program. This

    embraces a variety of activities designed to ensure reliability in the first place,specific quality control measures to monitor quality on a routine basis. The goalof quality system should be to avoid errorsrather than to detect them. The reduction of correction costs is recognized as a benefitwhich can be offset against the cost of the system.The quality economical approach is to provide quality product or service at competitiveprices while reducing wastage, decreasing cost, providing high customer satisfaction,gaining competitive advantage ,provide a vibrant economy that affects in terms oftaxation, government spending, general demand, interest rates, exchange rates , andoverall development and growth.

    Following are some of the quality economical aspects:

    Reduce Costost is an important concern for organization, in fierce competitive mar!et, organizationare struggling to provide quality at lesser cost to gain competitive edge. Quality helps anorganization to reduce wastage and come up with quality product or service atcompetitive price.

    Now the question arises as how to reduce cost and get quality?

    The quality costs are the cost of not oin! the ri!ht thin!s ri!ht first time or the costincurre "ecause failure is possi"le
