FEATURED ARTICLE LINKS

Share your experiences, term papers, or Quality oriented commentaries with us. Authors needed see author guidelines.

This month we are highlighting: 

 

 

San Diego Mfg. Industry Report for 2007

by Michele Nash-Hoff  

Adobe pdf file (79kb) free reader link below

 

This is a continuation of her June article outlining San Diego manufacturing company moves for 2007.      

 

 

Inspection Effectiveness Test

Unknown source

MS Word file (25 kb)

 

The attached file is a quick test that shows how visual inspection is really only about 80% effective.  Count up all the G's you see and then ask your friends to do the same.  You will be surprised at how different the results will be.  

 

  

Make sure you visit our virtual Library, open 24 Hrs/day, 7days a week, and please bounce back your favorite Quality related library thoughts and submissions (i.e. comments, e-book links, old term papers, article links, articles you've written, etc.).
