INTRODUCTION
Quality control is the process by
which products/services are tested
and measured to ensure they meet a
standard. Through this process, a
business can evaluate, maintain, and
improve product quality.
there are two crucial goals of quality
control:
(1) to ensure that products are as uniform
as possible
(2) to minimize errors and
inconsistencies within them.

control process.

TO ROLE OF AN UMPIRE
STANDARDS Umpire compares the quality performance to the
quality goal.
It interprets the observed difference or determines if
there is conformance to goal.
It takes decisions for the actions to be taken.
It stimulates the corrective actions.
In a well functioning Quality control system, it is
required to have a means that takes action on
differences between desired standards of
performances and actual performances.
Here we need an ACTUATOR.
Actuator may be of any form ->technological device TAKE

Actuator is a means for stimulating action to restore
conformance (agreement).

PLANNING FOR QUALITY CONTROL
Quality control is define as a system that is used to maintain a
desired level of quality in a product or service. It depends on
materials, tools, machine, labor, working condition etc.
It is a regulatory process through which we measure actual quality
performance, compare it with standards, and act on the difference.

Seriousness Classification.
Another way of identifying the vital few control
subjects is through “seriousness classification.”
Under this concept each product feature is
classified into one of several defined classes such
as critical, major, and minor. These classifications
then guide the planners in allocation of resources,
assignment of priorities, choice of facilities,
frequency of inspection and test, etc.
Process Capability
One of the most important concepts in the quality
planning process is “process capability.” The prime
application of this concept is during planning of the
operating processes.
Applied to planning for quality control, the state of
process capability becomes a major factor in decisions
on frequency of measuring process performance,
scheduling maintenance of facilities, etc.
The greater the stability and uniformity of the process,
the less the need for frequent measurement and
maintenance.
Those who plan for quality control should have a
thorough understanding of the concept of process
capability and its application to both areas of planning
—planning the operating processes as well as planning
the controls.
