Research To Enhance The Quality Management Of The 2～(ND) Survey And Design Institute

By using of quality management theory and means, this article presents a systematic research on design quality and quality management system in designing Institute, and relevant improving strategies have been worked out with respect to adaptation of quality management in railway engineering industry to market competition and get survived and developed in such competition.First of all, started from the statistics and analysis of design defects (unqualified during self-checking) in the recent 10 years in the light of ISO9000 quality system, this article identifies all the problems regarding design quality, quality management and problems caused due to the parallel operation of survey and design in railway engineering institutes. Focusing on critical factors like design quality, cost and duration, which shall affect core technology competitive strength and incorporating into railway engineering institute's actual features, this article also presents a conception of full prevention and unceasing improving quality management which railway engineering institute shall follow.Secondly, through further discussion on problems existing in quality management system in railway engineering institute, this article also presents strategies including improvements on inner communication channel, enhancing process control, staff participation, advocating and promoting innovative QC team, etc.Finally, this article presents the necessity of utilizing information technology to establish management information system (MIS) for railway engineering, and the only choice for designing institutes to integrate survey and design for the purpose of establishing competitive strength in market competition.
