Introduction
As the global economy slowly turns itself around and begins its long-term recovery
driven by rapid growth in Asia, greater stability in the United States and the Middle
East, tempered somewhat by Europe’s continuing economy troubles. Sri Lanka today
stands on the verge of success and prosperity.
With the permanent peace to the country in May 2009, the Sri Lankan Government
has accelerated economic progress through a series of measures such as control of
inflation, Reduction of interest rates, encouragement of tourism sector……etc.
During the module “Quality Management” we have been asked to fulfill a report and
a presentation as the semester assignment.
We have chosen “Coca-Cola” which is the leader in beverage industry for our
assignment. As the leading beverage brand in Sri Lanka they have good quality
strategies within their organization. So it’s one of the best chances we’ve got to study
the quality oriented strategies of this company as they have reached their best level.
So with that, we are pleased to present the quality management system of Coca-Cola
on behalf of the Quality Management module. By studying this report you would be
able to understand what are the quality management strategies that Coca-Cola use and
how do it work in the global business village.
Methodology
On 21st of July 2014, we visited the factory and office situated in the Biyagama. Mr.
Hemantha Balasooriya warmly welcomed us, and we were directed to the
Ms.Theekshani, then she conducts a brief seminar about the company and the
company’s quality management system.
Other than that we browsed internet for the definitions and to find out the history of
Coca-Cola.
Coca Cola is one of the most recognized brands in the United States and throughout
the world. Although there are several products in the Coca Cola line, its cola drink is
its flagship beverage and still its most popular product. The original recipe for the
drink, which has been altered over the years, was created at the Eagle Drug and
Chemical Company in Columbus, GA. It was created by John Pemberton as a coca
wine and was originally called Pemberton’s French Wine Coca. Pemberton’s goal was
to create a non-alcoholic beverage option during prohibition. Coke was first sold at
Jacob’s Pharmacy in Atlanta in 1886. Pemberton claimed the drink cured diseases and
was ideal as a morphine replacement. It was also said to cure impotence and
headaches.
The 1980s were an exciting time for Coke. The company’s marketing made some of
the biggest impacts in industry and managed to incorporate iconic images such as
Santa Claus and its polar bears onto the scene. In 1985, Coke decided to change the
formula of its drink and introduced New Coke to the market. Unfortunately, New
Coke was not well-received. The public preferred the taste of the beverage to
competitors, but did not like the traditional drink undergoing change. Within a year,
Coca Cola reintroduced a variation of the old recipe to the market and called it Coca
Cola Classic. By 2011, the world “classic” had been removed from all packaging and
New Coke was no longer produced anywhere in the world. Today, the classic recipe
of Coca Cola shares the market shelves with Diet Coke, caffeine free Coke, Coke with
lime, and several variations of the classic cola drink.
The Coca-Cola Company and its network of bottlers comprise the most sophisticated
and pervasive production and distribution system in the world. More than anything,
that system is dedicated to people working long and hard to sell the products
manufactured by the Company. This unique worldwide system has made The Coca-
Cola Company the world’s premier soft-drink enterprise. From Boston to Beijing,
from Montreal to Moscow, Coca-Cola, more than any other consumer product, has
brought pleasure to thirsty consumers around the globe. For more than 128 years,
Coca-Cola has created a special moment of pleasure for hundreds of millions of
people every day.
The Company aims at increasing shareowner value over time. It accomplishes this by
working with its business partners to deliver satisfaction and value to consumers
through a worldwide system of superior brands and services, thus increasing brand
equity on a global basis. They aim at managing their business well with people who
are strongly committed to the Company values and culture and providing an
appropriately controlled environment, to meet business goals and objectives. The
associates of this Company jointly take responsibility to ensure compliance with the
framework of policies and protect the Company’s assets and resources whilst limiting
business risks.
People: Be a great place to work where people are inspired to be the best they
can be.
Portfolio: Bring to the world a portfolio of quality beverage brands that
anticipate and satisfy people's desires and needs.
Partners: Nurture a winning network of customers and suppliers, together we
create mutual, enduring value.
Planet: Be a responsible citizen that makes a difference by helping build and
support sustainable communities.
Profit: Maximize long-term return to shareowners while being mindful of our
overall responsibilities.
Productivity: Be a highly effective, lean and fast-moving organization.
Coca Cola Beverages Sri Lanka Ltd (CCBSL), located in Biyagama, is the only Coca
Cola bottling plant in Sri Lanka. It has 443 employees.
While it has been a partner in the Coca Cola Sabco group since 2004, its origins go
back to 1955, when it was formed under the name pure beverage Co Ltd., through the
acquisition of the Ceylon Fruit Drinks and Table water company. Its journey with
Coca Cola started in 1960, when a franchise agreement was signed with the Coca
Cola Export Corporation.
Coca Cola Beverage Sri Lanka produces and sells over 10 million unit cases of
carbonated soft drinks (both still and sparkling) per annum. It operates through a
countrywide distributor network, consisting of about 128 distributors.
As one of the largest and well experienced business over 125 years, Coca Cola has
their own developed quality management system that perfectly matches with all of
their operations. They implements 5S and Kaizen theories inside the frame of their
own quality management system to smooth overall quality.
Kaizen Theory
House keeping
Waste elimination
Standardization
To be ensured success on activities on those three pillars three factors have also to be
taken account.
Visual management
The role of the supervisor
The importance of training and creating a learning organization
have failed to make such a project a going concern. For instance, many companies
introduced quality circles by involving employees but most companies have simply
given up the idea of quality circle activities by now as away to improve quality, cut
cost and speed products to market.
The message of kaizen philosophy is that not one single day should go by in the firm
without some type of improvement being made in some process in the company.
Kaizen is everyone’s job, it requires sophisticated problem-solving expertise as well
as professional and engineering knowledge and involves problem form different
departments working together in teams to solve problem.
Kaizen means many things including; focusing on small improvements first rather
than on the big ones, utilizing everyone’s potential and knowledge rather than
depending on a few experts, having a philosophy that all problems have a solution and
that nothing is impossible, rather than presuming that there are some unchangeable
factors, implementing a continual stream of small improvements at a steady pace
rather than some big changes once in a while, and done at every place where some
work is done. This is very different to the so called “big bang” approach which
focuses on “big” or very significant improvements once in a while.
According to Masaaki Imai, the success of many Japanese methods such as Total
Quality Management (TQM), Quality Circles (QCC), Total Productive Maintenance,
Zero Defects etc. owes its success to the underlying kaizen philosophy. In a
traditional organization the Top management and to a lesser extent the Middle
management will concern themselves with innovation, the Supervisors and Workers
are expected be concerned with maintaining the status quo and ensuring that all work
happens according to the standard operating procedures. In the Japanese model
however there is a layer of kaizen between Innovation and pure maintenance of
standard operations, and that is kaizen where there is a role for all.
5S Theory
5S is the name of a workplace organization method that uses a list of five Japanese
words all starting with the letter S. The list describes how to organize a work space
for efficiency and effectiveness by identifying and storing the items used, maintaining
the area and items, and sustaining the new order. S process can increase morale, create
positive impressions on customers, and increase efficiency and organization. Not only
will employees feel better about where they work, the effect on continuous
improvement can lead to less waste, better quality and faster lead times. Any of which
will make your organization more profitable and competitive in the market place.
No Use Repair
red tag items. Occasionally used items are moved to a more organized storage
location outside of the work area while unneeded items are discarded. Sorting
is an excellent way to free up valuable floor space and eliminate such things as
broken tools, obsolete jigs and fixtures, scrap and excess raw material.
Set In Order (Seiton) is the second of the 5Ss and focuses on efficient and
effective storage methods. Strategies for effective Set In Order are: painting
floors, outlining work areas and locations, shadow boards, and modular
shelving and cabinets for needed items such as trash cans, brooms, mop and
buckets.
Shine: (Seiso) Once you have eliminated the clutter and junk that has been
clogging work areas and identified and located the necessary items, the next
step is to thoroughly clean the work area. Daily follow-up cleaning is
necessary in order to sustain this improvement. Workers take pride in a clean
and clutter-free work area and the Shine step will help create ownership in the
equipment and facility. Workers will also begin to notice changes in
equipment and facility location such as air, oil and coolant leaks, repeat
contamination and vibration, broken, fatigue, breakage, and misalignment.
These changes, if left unattended, could lead to equipment failure and loss of
production. Both add up to impact the company’s bottom line.
Standardize: (Seiketsu) Once the first three 5S’s have been implemented,
should concentrate on standardizing best practice in your work area. Allow
employees to participate in the development of such standards. They are a
valuable but often overlooked source of information regarding the work.
From the very beginning, the leaders of The Coca-Cola Company have realized that
quality sets them apart from their competitors. For many years, Coca-Cola approach
to managing quality was prescriptive and centrally controlled. But by the mid-1990s,
the realities of the marketplace sparked changes, and their approach to managing
quality began to evolve. The business need to please local tastes, coupled with the
need to maintain consistent quality while quickly introducing new products, led to the
first iteration of The Coca-Cola Quality System (TCCQS) in 1995.
No longer prescribing what to do, how to do it, and when to do it, TCCQS featured
quality and environmental standards that defined the results Coca-Cola’s worldwide
manufacturing operations were expected to achieve. Accountability for achieving
those results shifted to the local business units, and, after 109 years, their approach to
managing quality decentralized. In 1999, an increased emphasis was placed on quality
planning, management review, and safety. Further refinements added standards to
address business goals and objectives, safety, maintenance, and the environment.
TCCQS continuously keep pace with new regulations, quality management methods,
and industry best practices as well as marketplace conditions. There is an increased
awareness of the importance of food safety, not only in manufacturing, but also
throughout the entire supply chain. By refining their requirements, Coke further
ensures that TCCQS embodies the most up-to-date, stringent manufacturing practices.
TCCQS concentrates on customer and consumer satisfaction and TCCQS provides the
framework for safety and environmental stewardship.
Now Coca-Cola follows third evolution of TCCQS and this offers the following
improvements to managing quality and accelerating quality system implementation:
This evolution further enables improved quality performance and business excellence
driven by:
The framework of TCCQS is much like their business: multifaceted with Quality at its
core. In addition to Quality, TCCQS has Environmental and Safety facets. The
TCCQS framework allows other business units to seamlessly align with it. The
TCCQS pyramid model has four layers, starting with The Promise at the pinnacle.
The other layers are:
■ Policy
■ Assurance
■ Control
Each of the pyramid facets has the same component parts. For example, there is an
Environmental Management System Standard supported by environmental
performance requirements as well as a Safety Management System Standard
supported by safety performance requirements.
Each facet – for Quality, Safety and Environment – has the same four layers. Those
layers are:
The Promise. The Coca-Cola Company exists to benefit and refresh everyone it
touches. This is The Coca-Cola Promise. Regardless of business function, each facet
of the TCCQS framework supports The Promise.
Policy. As the pyramid model illustrates, this layer consists of a Policy Statement.
The Environmental Policy and the Safety Policy are found on their respective sides of
the pyramid, just as the Quality Statement appears on the Quality side of the model.
Assurance. This layer contains the management systems designed to ensure that
control/compliance activities are consistent and effective; ultimately making sure
performance requirements are met. In the pyramid model, notice that on the Quality
side, the management system features the Quality Management System Standard,
which meets the requirements of the ISO Standard 9001:2000 and was constructed
with the intent to embody the management system requirements of the Global Food
Safety Initiative (GFSI) Guidance Document, Third Edition January 2003: (Part II) –
Requirements for a conforming Food Safety Standard (Key Elements), and to stay
current with the most stringent, up-to-date global requirements governing food safety.
In addition, the Quality Management System Standard features Company-specific
elements such as incident management and crisis resolution. For those who choose to
pursue accreditation, the Assurance layer also integrates the management system
requirements that govern laboratory operations embodied in ISO Standard 17025
Scope. TCCQS evolution brings some changes to the scope of TCCQS. As the
framework illustrates, TCCQS reaches well beyond manufacturing and testing
operations.
All requirements of this Standard are generic and are intended to apply to any
organizational unit, regardless of size, type, and output provided. If a requirement of
this Standard does not apply to an organizational unit, the requirement may be
excluded. Exclusions must not affect the organizational unit’s ability or responsibility
to provide outputs that meet the customer’s requirements, The Coca-Cola Company’s
requirements and applicable laws.
To encourage focus on inbound and outbound processes, TCCQS refines the existing
scope of the traditional manufacturing supply chain into three broad categories:
inbound (acquisition of raw materials), transformation (conversion of raw materials
The Coca-Cola Quality System promotes the adoption of a process approach when
developing, implementing, and improving the effectiveness of the quality
management system. This approach offers ongoing control over the linkage between
the individual processes within Coca-Cola system of processes, as well as over their
combination and interaction. As a result, the Company is able to meet customer and
consumer requirements and thus, enhance their satisfaction.
Certification to TCCQS
Once the organizational unit meets the prerequisites, additional Certification criteria
must be met (such as attaining a minimum product/package Quality Index,
demonstrating improvement trends, and publicly available sources indicating
applicable food law compliance). Certification to TCCQS enables an operation (if
they choose) to attain a host of external certifications, such as ISO 9001:2000, ISO
14001, and OHSAS 18001 — saving audit costs, minimizing operational disruptions,
and realizing myriad benefits.
The Coca-Cola Company exists to benefit and refresh everyone it touches. For them,
Quality is more than just something the taste or see or measure. It shows in their every
action. Coca-Cola relentlessly strives to exceed the world’s ever-changing
expectations because keeping their Quality promise in the marketplace is their highest
business objective.

The Coca-Cola Company takes quality control very seriously and they are committed
to manufacturing all their beverages with world class technology and quality
standards. This award is a testament to their commitment.
The Sri Lanka National Quality Award is an annual award to recognize Sri Lankan
The Coca-Cola plant in Sri Lanka has a state-of-the-art electronic empty bottle
inspectors and bottle washer equipment to ensure that no foreign substances enter
Coca-Cola’s products during the bottling and packaging processes inside the plant.
The plant also ensures high quality checks and robust processes including undergoing
Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) processes and adhering to processes by the
Japan Institute of Plant Maintenance (JIPM) to ensure consistent performance. The
plant also uses a fully equipped water treatment plant using multi barrier technology
producing water at highest standards which is then used for manufacturing the
beverages. The plant also has stringent process to treat the waste water. The water
goes through several cycles of treatment, such that it meets the company’s norm of
effluent discharge, which in evidenced by sustenance of aquatic life as well as local
Government norms for discharge. Further to this, the plant uses ultra-filtration
technology followed by scale removal through Nano technology to use treated waste
water for non-production purposes Sustainable and responsible. The Coca-Cola
Company has ensured great taste and quality in each of its products.
Findings
Recommendations
Since they implement their own quality control system, new employees can be
unaccustomed with it. To overcome this every plant should be conduct
necessary programs to make relationship between quality system and fresh
employees.
Their globalized quality management system should have extensions to match
with local work conditions. These adjustments should do inside the basic
frame of TCCQS.
Company should get necessary actions to avoid employee dissatisfaction at
implementation of tough points of TCCQS.
Company should improve some quality points as a normal quality practices
instead of regulations.
TCCQS made to match with global quality system. At global level
organization plants spends huge cost to maintain quality system regardless of
other factors. Coca-Cola global takes it as values added spend. But at local
environment, plant cannot spend same amount of cost to quality system like as
other huge plants in the world. Local plant should identify and get maximum
value from TCCQS at dependable cost.
Conclusion
Based on the findings of this report, it seems that Coca-Cola has an efficient and
productive quality management system. The global presence that Coca Cola has
means that its quality system needs to maintain a high level of consistent products
which meets the standards expected by its consumers worldwide. This report shows
that the system in place enables Coca Cola to measure all parts of the production
process with large success. This is reflected in the Company's Global Product Quality
Index rating which has consistently reached 94%. The effectiveness of this system
allows for the organization to profit by creating image of world class quality master.
Without this quality system in place, Coca Cola may have found it tougher to
penetrate international locations. One important aspect to Coca Cola is their brand
image and this quality system does its best to promote this image providing checks
throughout the production process. Other ways in which Coca Cola tries to increase
its social standing is by adopting sustainable approaches to environmental initiatives.
These factors are important to maintaining quality in the design and development of
new products, packaging, production processes and factory facilities. However, the
recommendations suggested provide Coca Cola with some areas to consider.
Continuous improvement throughout the organization could offer some ideas about
these issues which could maintain or improve upon the current product quality index
rating. Nonetheless the current system in place seems to be extremely effective and
allows Coca Cola to distribute its products on a global scale producing consistently
high products with rare cases of defection. It is clear that the system has gone through
various transformations that have improved the way in which quality is managed and
without these changes, customer demand would struggle to be achieved.
