Disciplines of Problem Solving Problems in business and industry occur in
numerous nature and complexities. Sub-quality parts produce by operator,
machine, and equipment create one type of problem. In other situations, the
problem may be related to timeliness of delivery and missing information or
merchandise. While each problem has its specific solution, and no two solutions
are alike, there are a few basic action steps, as described in this session,
that all problem solving effort seem to have in common. For their own continuous
quality improvement (quality system requirements, QS-9000,
4.14.1) activities at all levels of engineering and manufacturing, in
early 1990’s Ford Motor Company introduced a standardized set of steps to be
followed in solving problems by quality improvement teams within the company.
These eight step process of problem solving is known as 8D (Eight disciplines)*
and is by far the common disciplines used and accepted by most industries today.
In
this session the participant will learn the 8D process and be ready to begin to
use the discipline on actual problems in their own workplace. They will learn
how to effectively use a team approach to problem solving. The disciplines
prescribed offer the attendees a framework to utilize the experience and
expertise in their own activity and implement permanent solutions to the
problems encounter. Audience:
Production engineers, development specialists, quality assurance managers, Six
Sigma Greenbelts and Blackbelts. Duration:
1 day, Instructor: R. Roy, PhD, P.E., and PMP (Jump To Main Seminar Summary List) BIN06A: Production Problem Solving by Designed Experiments When
is a problem a PROBLEM? A vast majority of the “Problems” in the
manufacturing floors are of two kinds. The first situation is where nobody seems
to have an answer. And the other kind is where everyone claims to have an idea,
but none seem to work as a permanent solution. So, how do you attack such
problems? Solutions based on opinion
or past experience may not cure the
problem and you don’t seem to have time to take a close look at the problem.
What you need is a structured and objective approach. Use of Design of
Experiments can help you create such a structured and economical strategy.
Attendees this session learn how to handle production and manufacturing problems
permanently with minimum time in experimenting. Audience:
Production engineers, development specialists, quality assurance managers, Six
Sigma Greenbelts and Blackbelts. Duration:
2 days, Instructor: R. Roy, PhD, P.E., and PMP (Jump To Main Seminar Summary List) BIN07:

Common Practices in Quantitative & Statistical
Data Analysis Industry and businesses routinely collect
information on areas like product sales, customer services and market demands.
Careful examination of such data can produce vital information for important
business decisions. Simple statistical techniques like bar graphing, trend
analysis, Pareto charting, histogram plotting, etc. can produce valuable
information. The
nature of exact calculation necessary, however, depends on the type of collected
data and the perceived business value of the information it may contain. When
possible, the data collection scheme should be designed such that desired
information is readily obtainable. This session covers common data analysis
technique used by practitioners without much background in statistical science.
The presentation is designed for attendees employed at all business activities
and with or without a college education in science and technology. Audience:
All personnel who is involved in collection, interpretation and use of data. Duration:
1 days, Instructor: R. Roy, PhD, P.E., and PMP (Jump To Main Seminar Summary List) BIN09: Quality
Operating System
(QOS)
QOS
is a valuable discipline developed in the late eighties for use in all levels of
business activities by Ford Motor Company’s manufacturing, assembly and
stamping plants. It is a set of very basic and general guidelines applicable to
quality improvement efforts of products and services of all kinds. Outside Ford,
the QOS discipline is also known as BOS (Business Operating System). Use of the
QOS guidelines helps align company’s strategic goals, achieve planned
objectives, and institute quality system for continuous improvement.
This
brief session will provide an overview of Ford QOS requirements. Key information
is provided about QOS. Basic elements of QOS processes like customer
expectations, internal key processes, measurable for key processes, etc. are

Bolted Joints
– Application Principles and Overviews Fasteners
play an important role in building the end product. A typical automobile, for
example, uses about 4000 nuts and bolts. Because a few of them once in a while
would come loose, over half of the warranty dollars for the same automobile can
be related to fasteners. Modern buildings, vehicles, machinery, and
physical products of all sizes and shapes are put together by joining smaller
components with another. A vast majority among these is assembled with
fasteners, as they need to come apart for potential repair, replacement, or
maintenance. Simply put, a fastener is a screw, nut, bolt or stud with external
or internal threads. Why should you study fasteners? Approximately 200
billion fasteners are utilized by the industry each year. Many such fasteners
play important roles in transportation, safety and comfort of our modern life. A
typical automobile, for example, uses about 4000 nuts and bolts. Because a few
of them once in a while would come loose, over half of the warranty dollars for
the same automobile can be related to fasteners. Audience:
Production engineers, development specialists, quality assurance managers
involved in manufacture of fasteners or assembly complex parts using bolted
joints.. Duration:
1 day, Instructor: R. Roy, PhD, P.E., and PMP (Jump To Main Seminar Summary List) BIN11:
Robust Product and Process Designs
Robustness is an essential
characteristic for dependable performance. Robust products and processes perform
reliably with minimum variation due to uncontrollable factors. Naturally, to
assure consistent performance, the designs must be robust. Audience:

Basic
Tools for Quality Improvement
Improving quality of products and services is key to
maintaining competitive edge in today’s business environment. Companies of all
sizes, whether involved in delivery of service or manufacturing products of any
kind, should practice one of the many available modern quality improvement
methodologies like Six Sigma, TQM and ISO-9000.
While formal implementation of any of these approaches may create strain
on your resource and time, some form of quality awareness training is an
effective way to change the mindset. For example, employees at all level in the
organization, regardless of their roles and responsibilities, can easily learn a
few basic quality improvement tools and immediately apply it in quality
improvement activities within the organization. This brief session is designed for participants with minimum
education to learn a few proven quality improvement philosophies and learn how
to apply common quality improvement techniques including the seven basic
tools. Audience:
Quality responsible executives, production engineers, development specialists,
quality assurance managers, Six Sigma Greenbelts and Blackbelts. Duration:

TRIZ
- Theory of
Inventive Problem Solving TRIZ
(pronounced TREEZ)
is the Russian acronym for the Theory of
Inventive Problem Solving. TRIZ began in 1946 when the Russian
engineer and scientist Genrich Altshuller discovered that the evolution of a
system is not a random process, but rather is governed by certain objective
laws. TRIZ provides a
proven approach to understand and solve complex problems where a solution is not
readily available.
This course is intended to give someone with no TRIZ background a
practical understanding of TRIZ, and a process and database to begin practicing
and benefiting from TRIZ fundamentals in their daily work life.
The practices in this one-day course are intended to change the way a
participants looks at systems and problems, while providing a working knowledge
of basic TRIZ approaches for system improvement.
Audience:
Quality responsible executives, production engineers, development specialists,
quality assurance managers, Six Sigma Greenbelts and Blackbelts. Duration:

AS9100 Aerospace Quality System Standard Overview AS9100
is an international aerospace standard for quality assurance in design,
development, production, installation and servicing.
This standard has been endorsed by all major Aerospace regulators,
including the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the U.S. Department of
Defense (DoD), and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The
purpose of AS9100 has been to standardize the quality system requirements of the
aerospace industry which can result in cost savings due to the elimination or
reduction of unique requirements developed for each different customer. This
1-day session is designed to provide a comprehensive overview of the AS9100
quality system standard.
The Participants to this session are expected to develop an understanding
of the key differences between the AS9100 and ISO standards, and be able to
establish gaps between systems that currently meet ISO 9001:2000, but are
targeted for AS9100 certification. The
discussions in this course will include the useful information on how AS9100
implementation can add value to the business and increase customer satisfaction.

R. Roy, PhD, P.E., and PMP (Jump To Main Seminar Summary List) BIN15: Creativity in Design and Innovation A number of initiatives like Lean Operations, Six Sigma etc.,
have proven to be highly effective in achieving operational excellence. However
“operational excellence” is only a necessary condition for
competitiveness, not a sufficient condition. Competitiveness must be
sought and sustained through innovation. Innovation is becoming an essential competency for companies
trying to remain competitive in today’s global economy. The successful
companies would no longer be able to maintain their privileged positions if they
keep searching for excellence within the confines of their existing paradigm. In order to boost the level of innovation, a company must
have a formal plan for fostering creativity among the employees. Recent advances in cognitive science and empirical research
in technical innovation have provided a solid basis for training employees to be
more creative in practical problem solving situations. The training helps direct
their thought patterns in more creative channels. This new approach, often
referred to as Directed Creativity, represents a great potential for
enhancing the efficacy of operational improvement methods (Lean/Six
Sigma) as well as design and development methods (DFSS). Audience:
Quality responsible executives, production engineers, development specialists,
quality assurance managers, Six Sigma Greenbelts and Blackbelts. Duration:
