Policy to Improve Quality
We are certified under ISO 9001 (quality management systems) at our production sites within and outside Japan and are continuously improving our quality management system by using the PDCA cycle in the process approach. We also promote an enhanced implementation of P-FMEA* as a measure to improve our quality of operation. We work to provide products and services which satisfies various requirements of our customers.
*P-FMEA (Process Failure Mode and Effect Analysis): Method to improve production process through extracting the mode to cause each of the failures/mistakes over the entire process, evaluating the effect of the mode, and thereby designing the measures to prevent failures
Policy to Address Quality Problems
We conduct a series of review and recurrence prevention activities based on thinking and acting from the customer's point of view. These activities help us identify the direct technical causes of problems and the motivational problems that led to those causes and involve work to prevent recurrence and verify similar products in an attempt to prevent problems.
Efforts to Enhance the Global Network
We work to further improve the quality of products and services by exchanging personnel involved in quality assurance and supporting their activities across Group companies, including those outside Japan.
