History

Pre-WWII Japan known for cheap, low-quality manufacturing.

Page 5: Union of Japanese Scientists and Engineers (JUSE) Justin Ray.

JUSE

• Union of Japanese Scientists and Engineers (JUSE)– Founded: May 1946– Founder: Ichiro Ishikawa– Rebuild Japan’s economy through engineering

and technology

Page 6: Union of Japanese Scientists and Engineers (JUSE) Justin Ray.

Early Development

• 1949 – Economic Stabilization Board– technological advancements abroad

Statistical Quality Control

Page 7: Union of Japanese Scientists and Engineers (JUSE) Justin Ray.

Statistical Quality Control

• American mass production

• E. S. Pearson

• Walter Shewart – Inexpensive to implement– Reduce costs– Increase competitiveness

Page 8: Union of Japanese Scientists and Engineers (JUSE) Justin Ray.

Deming

• W. Edwards Deming visits Japan 1947

• Invited by JUSE to return in 1950– Reputation for

statistical methods

– “Eight-Day Course on Quality Control”

Page 9: Union of Japanese Scientists and Engineers (JUSE) Justin Ray.

Deming

• Eight-day seminars published by JUSE.– Elementary Principles of the Statistical Control

of Quality

• Deming donated royalties to JUSE.– Deming Prize

Page 10: Union of Japanese Scientists and Engineers (JUSE) Justin Ray.

Deming Prize

• Est. 1950• Deming Prize for Individuals

– “. . . outstanding contributions to the study of TQM or statistical methods used for TQM.”

• Deming Application Prize– “. . . company that has achieved distinctive

performance improvements through the application of TQM.”

JUSE

• Noteworthy Member– Kaoru Ishikawa

• Son of JUSE founder, Ichiro Ishikawa

• Leader in Japanese quality movement

• Developed the basic seven tools of quality (B7)

• Emphasized involving operating employees in quality improvement

• Coined term: company-wide quality control

Quality Control Circles

• Small groups of front-line employees

• Improve quality within their circle of influence

• Improve workplace and learn from one another

Page 15: Union of Japanese Scientists and Engineers (JUSE) Justin Ray.

Quality Control Circles

• Headquartered within JUSE organization

• Branch offices assist with developing circles

• Currently over 426,000 QC Circles registered in Japan
