There is an excellent article on Quality Circles on this web site - http://www.mahapwd.com/isoandqualitycircle/qc.htm

I would suggest you use this as a basis for the procedure you write for your organization. The parts that don't fit can be discarded and you can of course add anything particular to your company.

I hope this helps.

Dave: Good lead to a topic I thought had gone the way of other "flavors of the month."

There was a time back in the 80's when I was on a Board of Directors (as an outside Director) which declared itself a "Quality Circle" and elected (selected?) me as the Quality Circle Chair. After I had the post for a month, I learned the only reason I was elected Chair was because I was the Parliamentarian for Stockholder meetings and the others figured I could run a meeting of the Circle! No one of the other "suits" gave a thought to how much or little I knew about Quality

Says a lot about Executive Commitment, huh?

QC Circle

You can find a lot of information on JUSE regarding Quality Circle. We Hindalco Industries Limited are having participation in QC Circle activities. Recently (21 st January 2005) I led a QC Circle team and secured a THIRD Place in GUJARAT State level. Now this same QC Circle is going for a bigger competition to be held at Regional Level . Give me All the Best and prey for it. I am going on 17th Feb. 2005 for this competition.

I am enclosing few lines on QC Circle from JUSE web page.
