TO OLD Maintain Quality Assurance Program That Verifies That The Product Meets The Spec Prior To Ship Manufacturing Oriented NEW Establish A Cost Effective Single Quality Management System That Validates The Effectiveness Of All Business Processes Affecting Quality of ALL Collins Products (HW, SW, Data, Service) Enterprise Oriented RCI’s Quality Management System Evolution ADOPTION OF AERO SPACE STANDARDS IS KEY TO THE TRANSFORMATION
6
The Business Decision Rockwell Collins Implemented a Single Quality Management System for the Corporation — Based on Full 3 rd Party Certification to AS9100, — Leverage Key Companion Standards such as AS9103 and AS9102 This approach established a single best practice for quality management of key RCI business practices and product acceptance criteria for factory build and repair both in house and all RCI service centers and bases worldwide

Continuous Improvement Focus in Design n The Continuous Improvement Focus Of RCI Single QMS Is Identification And Reduction of Process Variability In The Life Cycle Value Stream Of Our Products. In The Design Phase This Means Identification And Management Of Key Process Characteristics n AS9103 Provides An Effective Guide For Application Of Industry Best Practices n For RCI AS9103 provided an effective baseline to attack CoNC in the design Process

CoNC The Ultimate Business Case !!!!! Intangible CoNC! Waste is Difficult to see, calculate, and realize, yet very real! WASTE!$$$$$ Below the Surface! Warranty Rejects (Internal Failures) Non-Standard Modifications ECOs Finished Goods Modifications Consignments Customer Penalty Scrap Losses are Obvious! Service Bulletins MRB Process Inefficiency Excessive Overtime Loss of New Contracts Planning Delays Premium Shipping Costs Excessive Field Service Expenses Loss of Future Customers Unused Inventory Processing Paperwork Unutilized Space Expediting Costs Unnecessary meetings-Time with Customers Pricing Billing Errors Development Costs of Poor Quality Product Handling Managing Corrective Actions Root Cause Analysis Excessive System Costs Overdue Receivables Loss of Company Reputation Re-Test Re-Inspection Test Equipment Wear Lack of Follow-Up on Current Programs Cost Of Non-Conformance (CoNC) Waste is obvious

n IAQG Standards Are A Key Component To An Overall Continuous Improvement Plan n Get Management Support – Define The Business Case — Reducing Cost of Non-Conformance is a good one! n Keep It Simple n Keep It Simple – Use An Understandable Continuous Improvement Model Return-On-Investment. Get Finance Dept To Validate The Savings n Show Return-On-Investment. Get Finance Dept To Validate The Savings n Report Results: Improved Quality, Reduced Costs, Improved Delivery, etc. Advertise Successes! Lessons Learned
15
n Remember To Address “Social” Issues Of Any Standards Implementation — Is The Business “Focused” On Developing a Best Practice — Are There Unresolved Business Cultural Differences? (Mergers) n Ensure The Foundations Are In Place — Right People, Willingness-To-Change, Commitment, Goals — Strong Communication and Training Plan Other Important Points For Successful Implementation
