Abstract

Modern organizations that wish to be successful and to achieve world-class manufacturing must possess both effective and efficient use of Quality tools and techniques (QT&T) for enhancing their performance. A large number of tools, techniques and systematic methodologies are being used in industries for enhancing their performance. Different tools and techniques have different perceived effect on quality improvement. Implementation of QT&T in different manufacturing organizations is not an easy task and requires a methodology to evaluate the effectiveness and intensity of individual QT&T. In the present exertion, various QT&T are grouped into six different categories namely, new product development tools (NPDT), decision making tools, data collection and analysis tools, lean tools, performance measurement tools and software tools which have been analyzed by using integrated multi-criteria decision making approach based on graph theoretic approach and analytic hierarchy process to measure the effectiveness of QT&T. This paper addresses NPDT tools are having high effectiveness and impact on manufacturing organization as obtained in the analysis.
