Quality & ISO 9000 Compliance Management Training

Achieving high product reliability has become increasingly vital for manufacturers in order to meet customer expectations amid the threat of strong global competition. Poor reliability can doom a product and jeopardize the reputation of a brand or company. Inadequate reliability also presents financial risks from warranty, product recalls, and potential litigation. When developing new products, it is imperative that manufacturers develop reliability specifications and utilize methods to predict and verify that those reliability specifications will be met. This presents a difficult challenge in many industries with short product cycles and compressed product development time frames. This webinar provides an overview of quantitative methods for predicting product reliability from data gathered from physical testing or from field data.

In this training, learn the different types of lean documents and the usage of lean document principles; types of controlled documents; examples of lean and non-lean controlled documents. Pros and cons of lean vs. non-lean documents.

This webinar will teach you how to identify potential process problems and avoid process interactions through effective process mapping. It will cover steps to create a fishbone diagram including its purpose, advantages and how to present it.

This webinar on Estimating Reliability Performance of products will show how you can use Accelerated Life Testing methods (ALT) to reduce costs, minimize risks and ensure adequate product performance prior to launch.

This webinar will explain how to create Failure Mode Effects Analysis (FMEA) by combining Effective Information Collection (EIC), Process Reliability Modeling (PRM) and Failure Mode Effect Criticality Analysis (FMECA). It will also cover the methods for determining root causes of process problems and effective tools for repair of ineffective processes.

This webinar will discuss in detail Process Reliability Modeling (PRM) method including its history, the process, validation, and results of effective management, sigma score and customer satisfaction. Attendees will learn how to convert qualitative information into quantitative data to determine process and system reliability.

This webinar will show how you can use failure data to predict expected future failures, proactively drive quality and reliability improvement and react quickly to emerging issues.

This webinar will explain how to use ANSI/ASQ Z1.4 to define sampling plans including its switching rules. It will also offer an inspection plan format that reduces the sequential sampling plan to ten or fewer rows in most cases.

This webinar discusses the genesis of RFIs and their development and the use and abuse of RFIs on construction projects including ways to mitigate the potential adverse impact of RFIs. Speaker discusses a number of contractual mechanisms to control the RFI process and mitigate potential impact damage claims based on the number of RFIs. The webinar also sets forth best management practices concerning the RFI process.

Learn how the FMEA and control plan can be combined to create a dynamic control plan, a living document that helps to drive continual improvement.

Lean is not a quick fix for doing more with less and doing it in half the time – it is not something you undertake to realize short-term improvements – it is on the other hand, a new way of thinking about your business and a new way of executing business activities. This virtual training and the others in the series will lead you through the journey of lean from its inception through complete implementation.

This training will help you gain a solid understanding of what Statistical Process Control (SPC) is and what it isn’t. We will discuss the common misunderstanding and misapplications of SPC so that you may avoid them.

This training program will help attendees grasp the essentials of project management and plan effectively for identifying project needs. It will also discuss practices for keeping content, process, and structure on track to produce positive outcomes.

The new ISO 9001:2015 requires companies to establish context of the organization and utilize this perspective along with the new High Level Structure (HLS) Clauses. This webinar is designed for quality assurance managers, management representatives, ISO 9001 implementation teams, and quality management system auditors. With the release of ISO 9001:2015 in September 23, 2015, now is the time to prepare. This 9001-2015 Transition Overview course will highlight the changes from the ISO 9001:2008 revision.

This webinar will highlight the current statistics and trends regarding product recalls, product liability lawsuits, and the causes of these economic disasters for manufacturing corporations. It will also identify all the areas of manufacturing management that are typically not being handled properly and contribute to such failures, from product development thru marketing, product testing, supplier selection and control, document management, contracts and agreements, manufacturing quality, and incident investigation.

This training program will discuss the new requirements of ISO 9001:2015. It will also detail risk management and how it relates to Kaizen/Lean efforts. Attendees will learn how to integrate all Kaizen/Lean practices with the quality management system as well.

This webinar will discuss the use of Lean Six Sigma methodology for product complaint investigations and offer a standardized approach for FDA regulated life science companies to follow whenever product complaint investigations are needed.

This Software Project Management training is designed to help executives and managers set and deliver on appropriate and realistic expectations, and avoid the 90% Syndrome.

This Software Testing training will review a testing method based on 'Design of Experiments' to greatly reduce redundant test cases and ensure that maximum number of defects are found.

Emphasis will be placed on realizing system interactions and cultural environment that often lies at the root of the problem and prevents true root cause analysis. This webinar will benefit any organization that wants to improve the effectiveness of their CAPA and failure investigation processes.
