Identify the Quality Triangle dimensions
In this task, you will identify the different dimensions of the Quality Triangle. The Quality Triangle consists of three main dimensions: cost, time, and quality. These dimensions represent the trade-offs and interdependencies that need to be considered when making decisions related to quality. The desired result is to have a clear understanding of how these dimensions interact and impact the overall quality system. To complete this task, you will need to analyze the current processes and identify the key factors that contribute to each dimension. What are the potential challenges of considering these dimensions? How can these challenges be addressed?
Review current quality metrics
In this task, you will review the current quality metrics being used in the organization. Reviewing the current metrics is essential to understanding the current state of the quality system and identifying areas for improvement. The desired result of this task is to have a comprehensive understanding of the existing quality metrics and their effectiveness in measuring quality. What are the current quality metrics being used? How are these metrics measured and reported? Are there any shortcomings or limitations of the current metrics? What improvements can be made?
Identify potential improvements
In this task, you will identify potential improvements that can be made to the current quality system. By analyzing the current state of the quality system and considering best practices, you can identify areas where improvements can be made.
