Intrоductiоn: Orgаnizаtiоns invest in quаlity improvement not only to meet customer expectations but also to support their strategic goals and competitive priorities. Two widely adopted philosophies—Total Quality Management (TQM) and Six Sigma—offer structured approaches to managing quality across operations and processes. Organizations seek to create long-term value when they implement quality improvement initiatives associated with TQM and Six-Sigma. Part 1: Compare and contrast the similarities and the differences between Total Quality Management (TQM) and Six Sigma in terms of their approach to quality improvement. Part 2: What is the Six-Sigma DMAIC Framework, and what are the key steps? Explain the purpose of process control charts in Six-Sigma and how they are used in the DMAIC Framework. Part 3: LEGO Group is a privately held company based in Denmark that is best known for its interlocking plastic bricks that allow children (and adults) to construct a wide variety of imaginative creations. As your textbook notes, much of LEGO’s success can be attributed to “their relentless focus on never taking shortcuts on quality, which is reflected in the LEGO Group’s motto of ‘only the best is good enough.’ This is a remarkable outcome considering that the company produces about 100 billion pieces per year.”Moreover, “LEGO holds its products to exacting quality standards. The molds designed by Lego engineers have a tolerance of 18 micrometers to ensure that bricks can stay connected. Only 18 bricks out of a million fail to meet quality standards.” Considering TQM and Six-Sigma quality improvement philosophies, which philosophy do you think is most important to LEGO’s competitive success? Provide justification for your response.
