QC Top 5 Activities by Cost

This QC Top 5 Activities by Cost widget displays the top five quality control activities ranked by cost. The most expensive quality-related processes are displayed and provides insights to support cost management and process improvement.

These quick access options are available:

  • Material Loss: This matrix displays highest quality control cost. This cost includes the value of defective raw materials removed from production. This value must be reduced improve the overall production expenses.
  • Rework: This matrix displays the extra labor and resources required to correct defective products, thereby improves efficiency.
  • Inspection: This matrix displays the labor, equipment, and time to verify product standards. The process optimization reduces costs and maintains the required quality levels.
  • Scrap: This matrix displays the defects cannot be fixed or materials are beyond repair. The material utilization can be improved by reducing the usage of scrap.
  • Engineering: This matrix displays Engineering costs in quality control that includes process improvements, design changes, and technical support. These activites help prevent defects and reduce long-term quality control costs.
