Quality Function Deployment It is a systematic approach to design based on a close awareness of customers desires‚ coupled with the integration of corporate function groups. It consists in translating customer desires into design characteristics for each stage of the product development. (Rosenthal‚ 1992) Ultimately the goal of QFD is to translate often subjective quality criteria into objective ones that can be quantified and measured and which can be then used to design and manufacture the

Characteristics of Quality Function Deployment 1. Quality function deployment (QFD) is a “method to transform user demands into design quality‚ to deploy the functions forming quality‚ and to deploy methods for achieving the design quality into subsystems and component parts‚ and ultimately to specific elements of the manufacturing process.”‚ as described by Dr. Yoji Akao‚ who originally developed QFD in Japan in 1966‚ when the author combined his work in quality assurance and quality control points

characteristics which cannot be obtained by other processes. Quality planning of each process represents an important activity in assuring the unimproved quality of the final products. QFD (Quality Function Deployment) is an important tool in production planning‚ which starts with identifying the customer requirements and prioritization of the steps to be achieved in getting the desired demands. QFD method is recommended to be used for strategic deployment of the aims which refer to product and company market
