It has been found that the company has many problems; specifically, there is high rejection or waste in the production processing line, high customer complaints and high non-conformity from the QC and IPC department From Aerosol Production Line due to Leakage test Failure and Out of Specifications. And it was found that the blisters, vial, and ampoule physically are out of specifications as well.The major causes of nonconformities and root causes of the quality problems were specified, and possible remedies were proposed. Although the company has many constraints to implement all suggestion for improvement within short period of time, the company recognized that the suggestion will provide significant productivity improvement in the long run
