W HAT I S A
QUALI TY M ANAGEM ENT SYSTEM ?
A system of processes (best practices) that are designed to
produce quality in an end product or service.
Quality is defined as a product that meets customer
specifications.
Customer specifications are broadening to include
sustainability, transparency and continuous improvement.
ISO 9000 is the most well known QMS but there are many others
– tailored to the needs of customers in most product sectors
(aerospace, automobile, electronics, food manufacturing) and
service areas (health care, law, food service)

WHAT IS
RISK MANAGEMENT?
The continuing process to identify, analyze,
evaluate, control, minimize or eliminate unacceptable
risk.
Risk can be categorized in multiple ways, such as
financial, operational, external, people, regulatory,
governance or strategic.

TOOLS YOU ALREADY USE
Quality:
QMS Reviews
GMP – Good Manufacturing Practices
SPC – Statistical Process Control
FMEA – Failure Mode and Effects Analysis
VSM – Value Stream Mapping
Risk Management:
HACCP – Hazard Analysis and Critical Control
Points (Food)
Likelihood/Impact Matrices
Preventative Actions

AN APPROACH TO I NTEGRATI ON:
SQF CASE STUDY
The food manufacturing industry deals with low margins,
perishable inventory and high impact risks like food safety
incidents and recalls, high employee turnover and high need for
regulatory compliance
SQF – Safe Quality Food – is a QMS for the food industry that
takes the HACCP approach to risk management and combines
with FMEA to build an integrated Quality and Safety Management
Plan
See the article in Food Safety Magazine for the full case study
(reference on final slide)

A SYSTEMATIC APPROACH:
Like the best quality management systems, we start
with customer requirements and a methodical approach
Like the best process improvement methodologies, we
start with the experience and diversity of a committed
team and a thorough understanding of our process
Like the best risk management systems, we identify and
characterize ALL the risks in our process
Like all of the above, we determine the best way to
control the process (thereby preventing the risks) and the
best way to monitor that the process is in control

FOCUSED, MINDFUL PROCESS
REVIEW:
A process flow is created and each step in the
process (as well as transitions between steps) is
analyzed for quality risks
All risks are captured – likelihood and impact
will be determined later

UTILIZE EXPERIENCE TO BUILD
YOUR TOOLS:
The likelihood and impact matrix should be
built based on your experience with your process
risks
The organization will decide to accept risks
below a certain risk score (likelihood x impact)
Above a certain score, a process to PREVENT
the risk must be put in place

INTEGRATE ACTIONS INTO
YOUR QMS PROCEDURES:
“Critical Quality Points” will be well defined
and corrective actions will be triggered when the
process is out of control
“Critical Quality Points” will be monitored and
records will be required records
Uncontrolled risks are captured and
acknowledged as uncontrolled

TIPS FOR SUCCESS:
The process isn’t difficult, but requires being mindful and
consistent
This approach can work for any process, manufacturing or
other
Don’t neglect the inputs to your process – suppliers, internal
organizations, etc.
Subject your system to a periodic review with the right
people in the room
Understand risk in terms of likelihood and impact – there are
studies that provide ROI on projects for risk avoidance
