“…This template can be tailored to support the popular quality and process improvement methodologies such as Six Sigma, Lean, and PDCA; which will help QFD to be established as an important quality and process improvement tool.

Purpose This paper aims to investigate to what extent quality function deployment (QFD) can be used in quality improvement rather than design activities. Design/methodology/approach A framework was developed for implementation of QFD as a quality improvement tool. A case study approach is used to test this framework, and quality issues were analyzed using the framework in a ceramic tile manufacturing company. Findings The results showed considerable improvements in the critical quality characteristics identified and sales rates, demonstrating the potential of QFD to be used in assessing and prioritizing areas of improvement, and converting them into measurable process or product requirements. Research limitations/implications One case study was completed. More studies would be beneficial to support current findings. Practical implications This framework provides structured approach and guidelines for practitioners in adapting QFD for quality improvements in existing products or processes. Originality/value This study proposes a new framework to use QFD in quality improvement activities, expanding its application areas. Moreover, the results of the literature study performed provide a valuable collection of practical QFD implementation examples.

“…Many studies present methodological refinements of the QFD method (e.g., Brad, 2009;Chaudhuri & Bhattacharyya, 2009;Hoyle & Chen, 2009;Iranmanesh & Thomson, 2008;Ji, Jin, Wang, & Chen, 2014), often by developing ways for using fuzzy logic in combination with QFD (e.g., Bai & Kwong, 2003;Chen, Fung, & Tang, 2005;Chen & Ngai, 2008;Fung, Tang, Tu, & Wang, 2002;Karsak, 2004). These studies are typically based on simulation of results and perhaps showing an illustrative example application.…”

ABSTRACT Purpose À The paper provides an overview of research published in the innovation and operations management (IOM) literature on 15 methods for cost management in new product development, and it provides a comparison to an earlier review of the management accounting (MA) literature (Wouters & Morales, 2014). Methodology/approach À This structured literature search covers papers published in 23 journals in IOM in the period 1990À2014.Findings À The search yielded a sample of 208 unique papers with 275 results (one paper could refer to multiple cost management methods). The top 3 methods are modular design, component commonality, and Advances in Management Accounting, Volume 26, 139À274Originality/value À This review of research on methods for cost management published outside the MA literature provides an overview for MA researchers. It highlights key differences between both literatures in their research of the same cost management methods.
