Kvalitetsåtgärd

Kvalitetsåtgärd is a Swedish term that translates to "quality action" or "quality measure." It refers to any specific action, activity, or intervention implemented to improve or maintain the quality of a product, service, process, or system. These actions are typically undertaken as part of a broader quality management system.

The purpose of a kvalitetsåtgärd is to address identified issues, prevent future problems, or enhance existing performance. This can involve a wide range of activities, from simple procedural changes to complex redesigns of workflows or product specifications. Examples might include implementing new testing protocols, providing additional staff training, refining customer feedback mechanisms, or updating manufacturing equipment.

Kvalitetsåtgärder are often the result of quality control processes, audits, customer complaints, or proactive quality improvement initiatives. They are a fundamental component of ensuring that objectives related to quality are met and that customer satisfaction is achieved and maintained. The effectiveness of a kvalitetsåtgärd is typically evaluated through monitoring and measurement to ensure it has achieved its intended outcome.
