可拓品質量

專欄: 可拓品質量

作者: 黎劍虹 - 可拓行者 (可拓學修行及實行者; 前香港品質學會會長)

什麼是可拓品質量 (Extension Quality)? 是本人嘗試把可拓學及品質管理結合一起的方法。「可拓學」是蔡文教授自1976年選題，用了七年時間研究解決矛盾問題。在1983年發表論文“可拓集合和不相容問題＂及宣佈了新學科「可拓學」的誕生。它是人類的各種創新方法、模式及機制歸納而成的一套理論。可以解決矛盾問題及應用於產品創新，化不可能為可能的一套中國原創學科。

Quality在香港及台灣譯作「品質」，在國內譯為「質量」。本人覺得Quality應該包含品(Brand)、質(Quality)、量(Quantity)三個原素。在工業的時代，因為供不應求，所以產量第一。當經濟發展起來，人們要求產品有質素（質量／品質）。現今大家都注意品牌，它代表產品的個性。

把可拓創新方法和品質管理結合，提升產品及服務的品質與創新（Quality & Innovation）。其實「創新」和「品質」有一共通性，就是將產品、服務以至於商業模式的改進（Improvement）。之後文章會介紹「可拓學」及其在品質管理中的應用。
