The emergence of these two forces creates an opportunity for organizations to benefit from the integration of information systems and quality systems. The basic purpose of an information system is to acquire and represent knowledge. The basic purposes of a quality system are quality planning, quality control, and quality improvement. We therefore define a <em>process quality knowledge base</em> (PQKB) as an <em>information system</em> that <em>acquires</em> process knowledge and <em>represents</em> it for the purposes of <em>quality planning</em>, <em>quality control</em>, and <em>quality improvement</em>. This article proposes that the presence of a PQKB can improve the quality performance of the focal process, as well as the quality performance of processes similar to the focal process. We argue that the degree to which a PQKB can effect quality performance is moderated by the richness of the process description encapsulated inside the PQKB, and the diversity of knowledge sources that are engaged during the construction and use of the PQKB. Managerial and research implications are highlighted.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100829,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Quality Management","volume":"4 2","pages":"Pages 207-224"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1999-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S1084-8568(99)00013-9","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81295108","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

How and why this conviction might be valid, on the other hand, has not been well conceptualized in the scientific domain. Furthermore, besides improved performance in terms of output quality, other benefits that might arise from the implementation and practice of SPC is a question that has yet to be adequately addressed in the literature. This article proposes a theoretical framework to provide a better conceptual understanding for these two issues. This theoretical framework extends the conceptualization and definition of a recently proposed construct, (<em>SPC Implementation/Practice</em>), by formally postulating direct and indirect effects for this construct. These postulated effects go beyond stating the intuitively obvious—namely, that <em>SPC Implementation/Practice</em> positively affects quality—(1) to specifically relate <em>Process Quality</em> and <em>Product Quality</em> to <em>SPC Implementation/Practice</em> and (2) to incorporate the Job Characteristics Model into an explanation of how and why <em>SPC Implementation/Practice</em> affects front-line operators' internal work motivation and job satisfaction levels.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100829,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Quality Management","volume":"4 2","pages":"Pages 243-264"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1999-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S1084-8568(99)00015-2","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88197281","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
