  1. 1. Continuous improvements of complex technical systems : aspects of stakeholder requirements and system functions

    Författare :Peter Söderholm; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Kvalitetsteknik; Quality Technology and Management;

    Sammanfattning : In today's society we are all strongly dependent on correct functions of technical systems. These systems tend to increase in both complexity and criticality, at the same time as they often have a rather long life. During this long life the stakeholders' requirements on the functions of the systems change. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Contributions to the Use of Statistical Methods for Improving Continuous Production

    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Process industry; Continuous process; Statistical process control; Design of experiments; Process improvements; Simulation tool; Engineering process control; Kvalitetsteknik; Quality Technology Management;

    Sammanfattning : Complexity of production processes, high computing capabilities, and massive datasets characterize today’s manufacturing environments, such as those of continuous andbatch production industries. Continuous production has spread gradually acrossdifferent industries, covering a significant part of today’s production. LÄS MER

  3. 3. The evolving role of customer focus in quality management: Using customer feedback to mobilize quality improvements in the age of digitalization and increased service delivery

    Författare :Andrea Birch-Jensen; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; quality improvements; digitalization; small data; customer feedback; customer focus; service improvements; manufacturing; quality management;

    Sammanfattning : Understanding customer needs is fundamental for being able to deliver high quality products and services, and, as a result, maintain and improve customer satisfaction. Achieving this has become a challenge, as rapid technological developments, market saturation, and increasingly skilled competition from low-cost economies have led to progressively more complex customer needs.

  4. 4. Applicability of continuous improvements in industrialised construction design process

    Författare :Erik Söderholm; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Träbyggnad; Timber Structures;

    Sammanfattning : The construction design phase is currently the most time consuming part of the industrialised construction process and the bottleneck for further streamlining the process at most industrialised construction companies in Sweden. One explanation is that every construction design project is considered as something new and unique, wherefore use of experiences to promote continuous improvement is limited (Meiling 2008). LÄS MER
