BARRIERS IN CQI
Shewart, Walter A., Economic Control of Quality of Manufactured Product, Princeton, NJ: Van Nostrand Reinhold Co.
1. Poor Planning -- The absence of a sound strategy has often contributed to ineffective quality improvement. deficiencies in the original planning cause a process to run at a high level of chronic waste.
2. Lack of management commitment -- A quality implementation program will succeed only if top management is fully committed beyond public announcements.
3. Resistance of the workforce -- A workforce is often unwilling to embrace TQM for a variety of reasons. A TQM project must be supported by employee trust, acceptance and understanding of management's objectives. employees will not work to their fullest potential when management defines its goals in terms of numbers. In this case, the focus shifts to level of production instead of to quality of production output. aging workers as well as workers who suffer from illiteracy or language barriers, may resist the implementation of new ideas and alien concepts
4. Lack of proper training -- There is evidence that lack of understanding and proper training exists at all levels of an organization, and that it is a large contributor to worker resistance.
5. Teamwork complacency -- Most TQM programs place substantial emphasis on teamwork and problem-solving groups. Problems arise when teams feel they have no authority, when they lack direction and purpose and when their large number causes status confusion. Newall and Dale found that teams are seldom fully used, and their individual members are often complacent.
6. Lack of resources provided many quality departments were over-worked and understaffed. although the return on investment for a quality improvement project is very high, many companies fail to provide the resources necessary to achieve significant results.
7. Lack of effective measurement of quality improvement -- TQM is centered around monitoring employees and processes, and establishing objectives that anticipate the customer's needs so that he is surprised and delighted. This has posed a considerable challenge to many companies.
