8 Quality is about seeing the world from our customers point of view Whether customers are external or internal, our job is to meet their requirements and expectations for a defect-free product or service Our priorities for quality: Design and Engineer reliable products without defects Produce products with error-proofed processes Deliver quality in all our products and services 8

9 What are the consequences of NOT delivering quality to our customers? We sacrifice future growth for current return when we ignore quality; for example, shipping parts without testing Ignoring quality erodes our understanding of what customers expect; for example, uncorrected non-conformance can be seen as internally acceptable over time, while customer frustration grows Poor quality erodes customer confidence and harms our reputation Poor quality products out the door now may result in costly warranty issues or customer safe application risk Making quality today costs less than fixing defects tomorrow Short-term decisions that erode quality have long-term consequences. 9
