Explain The Difference Between Quality and Reliability and Between Quality of Design and Quality of Conformance

Quality refers to all aspects of a product or service including organization, management, procedures, people, product life, etc. Reliability is a subset of quality that refers to how well a product performs after it begins operation. Quality of design measures how effectively a product's requirements are determined and incorporated into its design, while quality of conformance measures how well a finished product adheres to its design standards and specifications.

Explain the difference between quality and reliability; and between quality of

design and quality of conformance.

1. Quality is a much broader aspect than Reliability. Quality covers almost

everything from organisation, managements, service, procedures, people,


product, product-life etc. In simple words, Reliability is only a subset of
quality, the others being performance, consistency, efficiency, user experience
etc. Whereas, Quality is the measure of conformance to laid down product
specification.

Quality is every thing untill put into Reliability is every thing that happens

o Poor quality system can have system reliability is fixed and through
better reliability and a good quality quality assurance what we can achieve
system can have poor reliability. is design reliability.

Buying based upon quality Returning based upon reliability

2. Quality of Conformance can be defined as a quality management


terminology which measures the value/ amount or any other measuring factor
by which the developed product, service provided or even the manufacturing/
service providing system achieves quality targets or deviates from the set
standards, benchmarks or any other guidelines of operation which can be
classified into four major criteria like minor, major, critical, serious or any
other such similar classification.
Quality of Design is the level of effectiveness of the design function in
determining a product's operational requirements (and their incorporation into
design requirements) that can be converted into a finished product in a
production process.

Quality of conformance is based on quality of design.
