Variation; Enemy of Productivity

Luck (variation) is no lady and Kismet (fortune) is no gentlemen, at least not in product and service realization activities. Variation is a form of what General Carl von Clausewitz called friction: "the force that makes the apparently easy so difficult," and "countless minor incidents combine to lower the general level of performance, so that one always falls short of the intended goal."

ANSI/ASQ Z1.4, formerly MIL-STD 105E, is a well-established standard for sampling by attributes. A specified sample of n items is inspected, and the lot from which the sample came is accepted if the acceptance number (c) or fewer nonconforming items are fo..

How to Address ISO's New Climate Change Requirements?

ISO 9001:2015's successor, and other ISO standards, will soon include clauses related to climate change.

It is however important to not divert su..

Seeing the Waste: Henry Ford's Lean Success Secret

Enormous waste (muda) can hide in plain sight for years or even longer because everybody in the workplace takes it for granted, and is used to living with it or working around it. This waste can however consist of up to 95 percent of the labor, and a large portion of materials and energy as well. Henry Ford, whose success speaks for itself, identified three key performance indicators (KPIs) for waste that e..
