software justification
I'm having a tough time convincing my management that some form of software is the way to go. They are keen on lean manufacturing, so I thought I'd take that approach.
I'd like to draw the analogy: If someone handles a part several times or is waiting for information, they are candidates for lean manufacturing. Our Quality and Engineering personnel have turned into high priced "power clerks" that have little opportunity to do real work.
I want to show how the quality system is part of a process. This way our focus shifts from managing outcomes to managing and improving processes; from what to do to how to do the processes better.
Can anyone point me to something simple, like a picture or flow chart, that represents the Quality System (APQP, etc.) flow?
Remember the target audience; Simplicity is a must!!!
