About " Product Safety – On the Critical Path to a Manufacturer’s Success" topic:
I was reminded again of how critical product safety is while listening to the news this morning as another popular car's safety is being questioned. Product recalls have become all too commonplace and it seems items are scrutinized even more closely. Clearly this is a serious issue, since Manufacturers are often indirectly responsible for a consumer’s safety and even their life.
Recent recalls exist in almost all product categories – the most recently publicized have included cribs, toys, automobiles and food. Besides the ethical responsibility to provide a safe product, a manufacturer’s reputation and brand integrity is also at risk, leading of course to an immediate decrease in sales and loss in market share, and often major litigation.
So, let us discuss everything about product safety, and is there an overhaul of sorts which is needed in Manufacturing industries, to make products even more safer than ever.

I agree Ms. Mridula, but, what after post production and post sales. I think this is a healthy trend which is starting off lately. Let it be a design change or a defective material used in production, instead of leaving the customers to mend for...

Well trial and error is one method, but if something like a break or an accelerator fails the results could be fatal. This is where six sigma methodology should be brought in. One has to really think through all the failure modes. FMEA would help...

Implement Q M S in all seriousness this automatically includes aplying S P C, customer feedback, comprehensive testing etc etc. The mistake occurs when seemingly small errors from design acceptance to material testing are taken lightly and...

Fundamentally, your ideas are sound....that is Q.C. But Q.C is what we make of it. In a complex system like a car, there are thousands of parts. A part by itself may have certain failure modes. When you add another part to it, you have more modes...

“We are travelers of the path of blooming consciousness. Staying in between beginning and the end of the path, acquiring knowledge of the whole path and the ultimate truth is impossible. Even though, one is able to reach the end –isn’t able to make known us about the whole and the ultimate truth. First time, we go forward– towards any imaginary target, on the path of life, holding different beliefs. Gradually in this way– with increasing experience and knowledge, when we become more conscious, we advance following the way of science and rationality, –supposing all are seeming truth, giving up beliefs –largely, towards the aim of true self-development. In this manner, after passing over much more distance, –with increasing more consciousness, gradually step by step– one time we come near the truth. Then holding the hand of some truths or partly truth, –we advance to the aim of absolute truth. In fact, the entire route is the way of blooming consciousness. We– in our different...

Forgive me !!! a) After marriage, husband and wife become two sides of a coin; they just can’t face each other, but still they stay together. b) By all means marry. If you get a good wife, you’ll be happy. If you get a bad one, you’ll become a philosopher. c) The great question… which I have not been able to answer… is, “What does a woman want? d) I had some words with my wife, and she had some paragraphs with me. e) “I don’t worry about terrorism. I was married for two years.” f) “I’ve had bad luck with both my wives. The first one left me, and the second one didn’t.” g) Two secrets to keep your marriage brimming 1. Whenever you’re wrong, admit it, 2. Whenever you’re right, shut up. h) You know what I did before I married? Anything I wanted to. i) My wife and I were happy for twenty years. Then we met. j) A good wife always forgives her husband when she’s wrong....
