In a small company,aproduct undergoes limited no.of operations.Operators

check the parts after the process and only good parts are sent forward for next
operation.There is no time loss due to inspection and there is no rejection from
customer.Those parts which are not ok are either reworked or scrapped.The
owner of the company feels that there is no need for spending time and money
for identification of process deviations or errors since only good out put is
delivered to the customer and customer is also happy with the quality and
delivery in this situation.
