What does the “Zero Defect Strategy” mean?
The Zero-Defect Strategy, also known as Zero-Defect Management or the Zero-Defect Principle, is a method of continuous improvement (CIP) that involves all stakeholders working toward reducing the defect rate to zero. This includes all measures and precautions that make processes and operating instructions safe, traceable, and controllable. The goal is to eliminate even the smallest defects in every existing production process, including as early as the product’s development phase.
