Redefining quality in terms of value, risk and cost: a literature review
Nigel P. GriggThe purpose of this paper is to present a literature review demonstrating that quality and its management are increasingly definable as a balancing act between value, risk and…
Approximated optimal design for a bivariate step-stress accelerated life test with generalized exponential distribution under type-I progressive censoring
Nooshin HakamipourIn this paper, the author proposed an optimization design for a step-stress accelerated life test (SSALT) with two stress variables for the generalized exponential (GE…
A new method in designing group chain acceptance sampling plans (GChSP) for generalized exponential distribution
Mohd Azri Pawan Teh, Nazrina Aziz, Zakiyah ZainThis paper introduces group chain acceptance sampling plans (GChSP) for a truncated life test at preassumed time by using the minimum angle method. The proposed method is an…
A case study on FMEA-based improvement for managing new product development risk
Antonio Carrizo Moreira, Luis Miguel D.F. Ferreira, Pedro SilvaThe purpose of this paper is to explore the applicability of the failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) as an effective tool for decreasing failure risk in the early phase of…
Evaluating the effect of critical failure factors associated with sustainable Lean Six Sigma framework implementation in healthcare organization
Vikas Swarnakar, A.R. Singh, Anil Kr TiwariThe purpose of this study is to develop a structured hierarchical interrelationship-based model to evaluate the critical failure factors (CFFs) that affect the sustainable Lean…
Analysis of readiness factors for Industry 4.0 implementation in SMEs using COPRAS
R.M. Sriram, S. VinodhThe purpose of this paper is to analyse the readiness factors for Industry 4.0 deployment in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) using complex proportionality assessment…
Optimal preventive maintenance level for a repairable product under warranty subject to multimode failure process
Azmat Ullah, Muhammad Ayat, Hakeem Ur Rehman, Lochan Kumar BatalaThe purpose of this paper is to develop a model that determines whether how much effort of preventive maintenance action is worthwhile for the consumer over the post-sale product…
Simulation-based lean six sigma for Industry 4.0: an action research in the process industry
Vinayambika S. Bhat, Shreeranga Bhat, E. V. GijoThe primary aim of this article is to ascertain the modalities of leveraging Lean Six Sigma (LSS) for Industry 4.0 (I4.0) with special reference to the process industries…
How internal transparency impacts organizational resilience
Mohammed Al BalushiResearch on transparency has been concerned mainly with external transparency, leaving internal transparency understudied. In particular, there is a lack of empirical research on…
