OPS 571 Week 6 DQ 1
"You don't inspect quality into a product; you have to
build it in." Discuss the implications of this statement.
OPS 571 Week 6 DQ 2

OPS 571 Week 6 Learning Team Process Improvement Presentation
Write a paper which includes the following.
• Identify which ISO standards apply to
Riordan Manufacturing
• Using the Six Sigma DMAIC process, develop a
new process design for the production of the Riordan electric fans. Be sure to
take advantage of any global opportunities available to Riordan, such as lower
labor costs.
• Describe the bottlenecks that may occur in
the new process.
• Identify three TQM tools that may be used for
ongoing process improvement. Be sure to describe who will use the tool, when it
will be used, and what interval and how it will lead to process improvement.
• A project plan including: A schedule
including project goals, a schedule, roles and responsibilities and
deliverables.
• An implementation plan, including a Gantt
chart of the process design for the Riordan electric fans.
• No more than 1500 words.
• Consistent with APA format.

OPS 571 Week 6 Quiz
1.) Which of the following are examples of Goldratt’s Rules of
Production Scheduling?
An hour saved at a bottleneck is a mirage
Nonbottlenecks govern throughput
Utilization and activation are the same
Balance flow, not capacity
2.) According to the theory of constraints which of the
following can be a CCR?
Product design
An employee
Factory layout
A customer
3.) The Shingo approach to quality control depends on which of
the following?
Use of statistically based approaches to quality control
Use of source inspection on 100% of the items produced
Extensive use of control charts
Use of a sophisticated
method of acceptance sampling
4.) Statistical Process Control (SPC) and data from the actual
process to statistically monitor the process over time are employed during
which step of the DMAIC cycle?
Define
Control
Improve
Measure
5.) According to the theory of constraints, which of the
following is an OPERATIONAL measurement that can be used to measure the firm's
ability to make money?
Operating revenue
Unit cost
Inventory
Net Profit
6.) The DMAIC cycle of Six Sigma is similar to which of the
following quality management topics?
External benchmarking
ISO 9000
SERQUAL
Continuous improvement
7.) The Shingo system of quality control relies heavily on
fail-safe procedures or devices called what?
Checklists
DPMO’s
CTQs
Poka-yokes
8.) Identifying critical-to-quality characteristics (CTQs) takes
place in which step of the DMAIC methodology?
Analyze
Define
Improve
Measure
9.) According to the theory of constraints which of the
following is a FINANCIAL measurement that can be used to measure the firm's
ability to make money?
Sales
Cash flow
Inventory
Operating expenses
10.) Goldratt’s theory of constraints (TOC) could be restated
using which of the following?
A system with constraints
will not be able to achieve its goals
Any system is limited in
achieving more of its goals by a very small number of constraints
A system constraint cannot
be identified and thus cannot be improved
Continuous adjustments after a constraint problem is solved will
cause more problems
11.) The idea that statistical methods of quality control,
including six-sigma, does not prevent defects, is central to what alternative
quality system?
SQC methods
Deming PDCA cycle
DMAIC cycle
Shingo System
12.) A bottleneck in a manufacturing process may be targeted and
eliminated by employing which of the following?
Install more efficient equipment where capacity is less than the
demand.
Increase labor equally throughout the system.
Increase the capacity of a nonbottleneck resource.
Increase the idle time of a capacity-constrained resource in the
system.
13.) Which of the following is a focusing step of Dr. Eli
Goldratt's theory of constraints?
Do not modify a process after improvement of a constraint is
achieved.
Isolate constraints to reduce the constraint’s capacity.
Align the whole system to support processes prior to the
constraint.
Identify system constraints that prevent the system from
achieving its goal.
14.) According to Goldratt, which of the following is defined as
“any resource whose capacity is less than the demand placed on it”?
Bottleneck resource
Buffer resource
Nonbottleneck resource
Capacity-constrained resource
15.) According to the theory of constraints, which of the
following would be included in the Throughput operational measurement?
Work in process
Finished goods
Goods sold
