Implementation of differentiated quality management system and fmea method in the newspaper production

Abstract

A new approach to the FMEA (Failure Mode and Effects Analysis-analysis of potential failures and their effects) method implementation in the newspaper production system shows non-compliances that may occur in the selected processes by implementing differentiated quality management system. Each sub-process and work activity within the selected processes in the newspaper production is differentially evaluated, and analysis provides the necessary information about the intensity of occurrence, severity and possible corrective actions in order to achieve and maintain high levels of quality newspaper products. FMEA analysis is presented in the modified tables for the newspaper product production process, and the preventive and corrective actions were recommended based on the results obtained. By performing preventive and corrective actions the occurrence of non-compliance is eliminated or minimized which ultimately makes the process more competitive and removes the non-compliance from the product.
