Q
I would like to know which department is responsible for any QC activities involving 100% inspection of an in-process or finished product.
Here where I work, anything that involves product quality gets pushed onto QA. I feel that this leads to a removal of responsibility from Production and places it entirely on QA. This would be less ironic if we didn't have banners all over the place saying that everyone is responsible for quality. I'm trying to push for Production to accept responsibility for the 100% inspection activities so those of us in QA can actually do our jobs instead of babysit.
We are a stamping, welding and light assembly plant, Teir 2 automotive supplier. The parts that are inspected are either robotically MIG welded (checking for weld quality) or have a history of quality problems such as incomplete process.
