Model of assessment of a company’s manufacturability in quality management

Abstract

Digital transformation is one of the key areas of change in the areas of social production; assessment of the level of technology implementation is an integral tool for the development of companies. The level of manufacturability of a company is of great importance, quality management is an essential part of an organization’s management system and includes the process of measurement, analysis and improvement of quality indicators. Therefore, the development of a model for assessing the level of manufacturability of quality management is an urgent area of science and practice. Grounding of the criteria and development of the model of assessment of a company’s manufacturability level in quality management are a perspective direction for assessment and working out the path for development of digitalization of a company. The suggested model of assessment of a company’s manufacturability in quality management includes criteria of quality of main factors of a production system (product, production, management). It estimates them from the viewpoint of IT development: regulation, automation, robotization and the fulfilled QMS functions: finding out the quality indicators, monitoring and assessment. Relevant assessment of manufacturability of a company suggests measurement of the results on each direction of the activity and integration of the indicators into overall result. The proposed Assessment Model can contribute to the development of a digital platform for quality management, containing processes and indicators for managing the quality of products, processes and systems. Model will make it possible to make informed management decisions on the development of quality management and will allow avoiding unreasonable costs of digitalization with a low level of development of quality management functions and the absence of documented procedures.
