Super Strict Quality Requirements of the 21st Century and Its Influence on the Industry of CHINA
Abstract
The famous US quality management expert J.M. Juran pointed out on the American Quality Congress of ASQC in 1994, that the 20th century is a century of productive force and the 21st century would be a century of quality. In the past dozens of years, science and technology have made rapid progress. Take electronic products for example, the non‐conformity rate has dropped from 1 per cent (10−2) and 1 per cent (−3 to ppm (parts per million, 10−6), even to ppb (parts per billion, 10−9). Such a low non‐conformity rate can be called the super strict quality requirements of products of the 21st Century. Super strict quality requirements can cause a series of new changes: Therefore, super strict quality requirements are unavoidable to produce significant influences to the industry of the 21st century. This paper analyzed these influences and pointed out taht which quality sciences must be paid attention to first.
