CHAPTER ONE

1.1 Background to the Study

All organization whether public, private , statutory or charity on their business with an underlying primary objectives, which may be profit maximization risk- diversion, society responsibility or width usually represented by asset holding.

Besides the core objective, there exist a subsidiary objective either explicit or implicit in the policy statement of those organisation which serve as a catalyst for achieving the overall organisation objective, for most production campaigns, this subsidiary objective is customer satisfaction

(Ijewore, 2003).

The influx of substandard production into the market has triggered consumer’s consciousness to what they buy in the market, consumers are rational. They want maximum benefit and satisfaction from a product a service by spending little amount of money of it.

Distinct characteristics such as high quality and suitable price have the effect stimulating an increase demand for particular product and less preference for competing hands of products.

Since customers are the ultimate judge of the specific brand of product to purchase, customer satisfaction is targeted by providing product with suitable price and unique quality which meet the final consumer needs and specification. A product therefore posses the ability to consistently meet or exceed customers expectation quality control is therefore nitty-gritty for any production company that seek to enhance productivity.

One of the ways in which productivity can be improved in an organisation is inculcate quality control in its operation. The level of productivity achieved has become a yardstick for measuring the achievement or progress made by a country or company overtime (Banjoko, 2004) in today’s business word, the may pre-occupation of most business organisation in high trying recruit and satisfy employee who are suppose to fit into their position, the organisation to product according to the predetermined standards or achieve organisation objectives. According to Nickels (2005), “ Productivity is the volume of goods and services that one worker can produces “. It is the relationship between output and input.

Standard products over the years in the market and their effect on consumers have raised an issue of concern to some organisation. The Federal Government of Nigeria in recognition of the importance of the high quality to healthy agencies to guarantee this, and these agencies includes the National Agency for good and Drug Administration control (NAFDAC) the standard organisation (SON), the Nigerian Institute of standard (NIS), the Federal Ministry of Health, e.t.c

These agencies were set-up to ensure that producers of goods conform to predetermined quality standards and market products that are neither nor contaminated.

The Director General of Standard Organisation (SON), Dr. John Akpanya in his key note address the Auto spare parts and machinery Dealers Association (ASPAMDA) at a seminar in Lagos and said “ there is urgent need to develop quality culture in Nigeria as quality culture in Nigeria is the key to survival, growth and competitiveness “ this statement denote that any firm that does not meet up with the set quality standard will be left behind.

Therefore, it is needful that firms include quality control in their operation . it production companies in Nigeria aspire to meet up with the challenges prevalent in the business word, the quality control is inevitable.

If a firm seeks to enhance productivity quality control must be introduced and improved. There should be continuous improvement in their firms operations as this will result to standard products and bring about customer’s satisfaction
