e-trackspecifications are needed to assure the quality ofroutine operations. For analytical quality, theseoperating specifications must describe theimprecision and inaccuracy that are allowable for themethod and the control rules and number of controlmeasurements that are necessary for routine QC.1.3.7 Utilize available quality-planning tools andtechnologyIt is easy to see how this planning approach canbe used to achieve the desired turnaround time for alaboratory test. A quality requirement can be definedin the form of an allowable turnaround time on thebasis of discussions with the users. The steps in theprocess can be identified from the point of orderingthe test, acquiring the specimen, transporting thespecimen, processing the specimen, analyzing asample, reporting the result, and receiving the result.Portions of the allowable turnaround time can thenbe allocated to different steps in the process,establishing specifications for each of the steps, andallowing those steps to be monitored to be sure thedesired performance can be achieved.convert quality requirements into specifications forthe imprecision and inaccuracy that are allowableand the QC that is necessary. These models aredeveloped by identifying the various factors or stepsin the process, allocating or budgeting a portion ofthe quality requirement to that factor or step,building in a QC check to assure the desired qualityor performance is achieved for that factor or step,then balancing the budget for the whole process andmonitoring (or controlling) that budget duringroutine operation .2. ConclusionTotal Quality Management encouragesparticipation amongst shop floor workers andmanagers. There is no single theoreticalformalization of total quality, but Deming, Juran andIshikawa provide the core assumptions, as adiscipline and philosophy of management whichinstitutionalizes planned and continuous..Improvement. and assumes that quality is theoutcome of all activities that take place within anorganization; that all functions and all employeeshave to participate in the improvement process.Cartoon by John Meyer, MD.Figure-4For analytical quality, the translation is moredifficult.

The quality processdemands a push toward continuous improvement ofcustomer focus and operational procedures.
