An evaluation of an alternative approach to quality control or assurance and the effects it could have on the functions of the business and how it achieves its objectives.
Alternative method for Quality Control that FPS can use
Quality control is a system for ensuring the maintenance of proper standards in manufactured goods, especially by periodic random inspections of the product. A strategy that can be used to ensure this and to suit FPS is to test each individual compartment separately this also add value because your in the process of assembling different products to form fire extinguishers. Don't get me wrong however you would still have to check the final product but there is a higher percentage that it would work than leaving it to inspect at the end. As I said in my other assignment FPS don't actually manufacture there products the buy them from other manufacturers and then put them together to form for e.g. a fire extinguisher. Instead of FPS tested their products once they have been made, they should test each individual pieces separately this will not only just save them time but with the environmental issue of waste it would be reduces and costs would be less. This is because if you had a fire extinguisher with all the components together and then tested it and found a default it is more expensive because with having all the pieces together and not knowing exactly which one isn't working it will be more expensive as you may have components in perfect working order but have to scrap it because it has been tested. Without spending numerous sums of money and then having found a default and perhaps it's more than one component it would be idealistic to check them before adding them all together. If you were making a fire extinguisher it would feel as though by testing each component it takes longer than actually producing the hole fire extinguisher but infact this way will guarantee your product not only will work it also will be at a better standard
