1 PROJECT QUALITY PLAN PURPOSE
This plan identifies the set of standards, practices, reviews, checkpoints and other quality improvement methods to be implemented for the Cat. 6 Keystone Jack New Product Development Project. The project adheres to SM Network Cabling Inc. Quality Assurance Practices and New Product Development (NPD) process.
This plan applies to the following:
Project management and development practices.
Product Design Engineering team
Manufacturing reliance on to complete the implementation (Material Requisition and Preparation, Standard Operation Procedure (SOP) Execution, Quality Control Data Collection )
QA Team to perform quality control and audit
Necessary education and communication documentation for technology transfer from engineering to manufacturing
2 PROJECT SCOPE & OBJECTIVES
Develop a new keystone jack to add to the product line, that comply to Category 6 (Cat. 6) networking performance – customer and company requirement
Allow both punching tool and tool-free operation – customer requirement
Allow 180 degree punch operation – customer requirement
Low profile design to minimize use of material for cost and space saving – company requirement
3 Project Team ROLES & RESPONSIBILITIES
Project Team Role
Responsibilities
Project Manager

4 QUALITY METRICS
Deliverable
Acceptance Criteria
Cat. 6 performance
ANSI/TIA/EIA 568-B.2-1 Commercial Building Telecommunications Cabling Standard for Cat. 6 performance
Environmental Governance
RoHS Compliance
Design Scope
180 Degree punching operation
Low profile design to fit equipment rack for a 1U 24-port patch panel space requirement
Durability
Connection pins will survive a minimum of 750 plug/unplug duty cycle
Insulation Displacement Contact (IDC) will survive minimum of five punching action without physical damage
The product will survive a minimum of 20 install/uninstall duty cycle
Tolerance
No larger than 1% of failure rate in phase A of development cycle (first article approval) and 0.5% in production
All characteristic (physical dimensions, durability, Cat. 6 Performance) is applicable to the above tolerance specification
Cost
$40,000 for all project work up to the point for production readiness
Time
Project completion in 2 months (production-ready)
5 QUALITY MANAGEMENT METHOD
5.1 Quality Assurance
Understand the needs of customer (180 degree punching, tool and tool-free operation)
Understand the needs of company (a low profile design for cost saving and a new product to be launched within 2 months to add a new product to compliment the new Cat. 6 standard)
Prototype evaluation
Statistical process to control the failure rate to be
