This methodology was actively pursued for 10 products for which Critical to Quality (CTQ) characteristics were identified based on market feedback. Regional team has also been trained in Six Sigma technology for capture of customer's voice.
In addition to this, the company has also introduced stringent control measures with suppliers to ensure that inputs support the Six Sigma quality. In fact, all these measures have resulted in manifold improvement in the CTQs with substantial reduction in defects.
The Quality focus is reflected in a number of company wide initiatives that include:
Corporate R&D and Quality Division of Crompton Greaves Ltd has been certified to ISO 27001:2005 by UL India Ltd.
In accordance with plan, the second phase of Six Sigma implementation commenced during 2004-05 with increasing executives being trained in the methodology. Six Sigma methodology has been extended to the design activity of the products. Ten products have been covered in the first phase, while nine products would be included in the second phase. Increasing coverage of products with six sigma approach will progressively help the company achieve 'product quality as perceived by the customer'.
Twenty-three divisions / regions have been accredited with ISO9001: 2000 Certification.
Seven manufacturing units have been accredited for ISO 14001 and four units for OHSAS 18001
