REPORT

QUALITY MANAGEMENT

Identification of all the standards regarding the components and determining how to satisfy them.Application of all the planned measures to satisfy system quality and ensuring that the project meets all requirements.Iteration of all the processes to identify and eliminate ways to eliminate causes of unsatisfactory performance.

Six SIGMA

OBJECTIVES

• To increase the profits
• Removing defects/
• Providing consistency of products or services and reducing variation

The product is qualified to get SIX sigma seal depending on the rating given for usability, error free, cost effective etc.

USABILITY

We need to meet the benchmark of quality standards that are existing and should improvise more by adding new features. In our project these are newly added features

· Ramp for handicapped

· Providing A/c

· Usable holders.

· Comfortable seating and providing of extend able roof while raining or snow fall or other extreme weather conditions helps passengers to enter comfortably.

· Movable chair for driver etc

· Placing of small dust bins at fron and back end to make environment friendly.

· Placing of simple ticketing system even though its electronic system.

· Installing Tv in buses for lon distances for entertainment of people.

COST EFFECTIVE

This must consider cost benefits, less rework, higher productivity, lowr costs and increase satisfaction. The entire process costs around 3-4lakhs. To maintain this estimation cost measures have been taken.

ERROR FREE

The product should be 99% error free to be implemented. To achieve this the following measures have been taken

• When bus crashes down driver is equipped to repair it or if he fails an immediately alternative vehicle is sent from nearby depot.
• When engine fails, the solar cells are activated so that A/c is on. The passengers are made comfortable.
• Placing of fans if A/c fails. Having spare wheels if any puncture happens.
• Medical kits for emergencies. A course for the driver to attend basic emergencies during journey. 1^st aid training is compulsorily given.
• Installing of Bluetooth services so that during emergencies the nearest depot is informed and attended.

FMEA ( failure models effects analysis)

For mechanical components

Product Function	Potential Failure Mode	Potential effects of failure	Potential causes of failure	Current controls	O	S	D	RPN
Separator connection between 2 compartment	Connecting rods	compartments lose balance and crashes	Screws connecting get loose	Tightening of screws periodically
	Separator Button fails	Compartments do not get separated	Minor defects during manufacture	Frequent checks of functioning
	Separator gets jammed	Passengers are not safe during mishap	Accidents	Lubrication
Brake-to bring the vehicle to a halt	Brake wire is cut	Accidents are caused	External conditions like heat etc	Periodic checking
	Brakes are Jammed	Accidents	Improper maintenance	Lubrication

For exterior components

Steering-controls direction ofmovement	Swerving of jammed	Swerving of vehicle causing	Over-usage	Lubrication
Ticketing machine	Battery dies down	Delay in issue of ticket	Excessive heat and over usage	Replacing the battery periodically
	Machine stops working	Ticket cannot be issued	Electronic fault occurence	Periodic checking
Door-entry and exit	Doors get jammed	Passengers are stranded	Failure of button	Periodic checking and lubrication
Tyres-movement Of vehicle	Tyres get punctured	Vehicle stops	Abrasions onthe surface ofthe road	Regularchecking of air
	Burn-out of Tyres	Vehicle skids to a halt	Excessive friction	Spare tyres

where RPN means Risk priority number

O means occurrence of failure

S severity of failure

D detectability of failure
