Quality Quality ManagementManagement
Quality is a measure of goodness that is inherent to a product or service.

1 – if caught and fixed as soon as it occurs, it costs a certain amount of time and money to fix
10 – if caught later in different department or location = as much as 10X cost
100 – if mistake is caught by the customer = as much as 100X to fix
