ABSTRACT

 

Standardization focuses on finding solutions to problems/issues and uses of these solutions to avoid control and reduce these problems/issues in future. Problems/issues can be categorized as failure/reject/ rework/risk/impact/delays etc. Any non-compliance that happens when there is non-fulfillment of identified requirements or risk related to compliance with the identified requirements or non identification of requirements for these problems/issues at any interactions between activities/systems/resources/ products/ environment/ energy/ information etc can be the reason for these problems/issues.

 

The result of these problems/issues brings ineffectiveness, i.e. losses/leakages to the socio environmental economy and affects sustainable development.



     

Identification of solutions to the problems/issues and effective implementation repeatedly (through standardization) bring benefits to all stakeholders, i.e. investors, processors, customers etc. by inculcating consistent quality on products. The outcome of consistent quality results in reaping benefits, for example, increased earnings and time saved by reduced cycle time and also provides opportunity to use spare time for achievement of needs and expectations of individuals/groups. In this manner it helps for improvement on degree of fulfillment of needs and expectations and thus enhancement of quality of life.

 

Generic methodology has been developed to identify problems/issues, derive solutions to the problems/issues, and thus reduce, avoid control and prevent problems/issues. The solutions to the problems/issues are the requirements and incorporation of these requirements will help to improve the systems. When systems improve, the quality of life will improve with reduction on problems/issues.
