A systematic literature review of implementation quality control and assurance in Industries

Introduction

A systematic literature review of implementation quality control and assurance in industries. Systematic review: Quality control (QC) & assurance (QA) implementation in industries. Covers sustainability, efficiency, advanced tech (AI), and identifies research gaps.

Abstract

Quality management practices are essential for companies seeking a competitive advantage in today's market, with quality control (QC) and quality assurance (QA) playing pivotal roles in ensuring that products and services meet established standards and customer expectations. The integration of these practices with sustainability initiatives has emerged as a critical area of research across various industries, driven by the demand for efficient resource utilization and environmental protection. This paper reviews the significance of QC and QA across these industries, highlighting their impact on operational efficiency, waste reduction, and customer trust. Furthermore, the paper examines the integration of advanced technologies, such as automation and artificial intelligence, in quality management systems, and their potential to improve decision-making and risk management. This review identifies key research gaps and limitations in current studies, emphasizing the need for actionable guidelines and qualitative insights to enhance the implementation of quality management practices. By addressing these gaps, future research can contribute to more effective and sustainable quality management solutions across diverse industries.

Review

The paper, titled "A systematic literature review of implementation quality control and assurance in Industries," embarks on a highly relevant and timely exploration of quality management practices. It rightly positions Quality Control (QC) and Quality Assurance (QA) as pivotal for competitive advantage, linking them to critical contemporary themes such as sustainability initiatives, efficient resource utilization, and environmental protection across diverse industries. The abstract outlines a broad scope, aiming to synthesize current knowledge on the significance of these practices, their impact on operational efficiency and customer trust, and the integration of advanced technologies like automation and artificial intelligence in quality management systems. The declared methodology of a systematic literature review in the title suggests a structured and comprehensive approach to synthesizing existing knowledge. The abstract highlights several valuable contributions this review intends to make. It promises to illuminate the multifaceted impact of QC and QA on key organizational outcomes, including waste reduction and enhanced customer trust, while also addressing the crucial integration of quality practices with sustainability goals. A particular strength lies in its stated intention to examine the transformative potential of advanced technologies in modern quality management systems. Furthermore, the paper aims to identify specific research gaps and limitations within current studies, emphasizing the critical need for actionable guidelines and qualitative insights to improve the practical implementation of quality management. This forward-looking approach, aimed at guiding future research towards more effective and sustainable solutions, is a commendable objective. However, despite its promising scope and intentions, the abstract provides limited detail regarding the "systematic" nature of the review as indicated in the title. Crucially, it omits information on the specific search strategy employed, the inclusion and exclusion criteria used for selecting studies, or the methods for data extraction and synthesis. Such methodological transparency is fundamental for a robust systematic literature review, allowing readers to assess its rigor and replicability. While the abstract mentions identifying research gaps, it would benefit from a more concrete articulation of *what* these specific gaps are beyond a general call for actionable guidelines and qualitative insights. Providing more detailed examples or categories of identified limitations would significantly enhance the paper's contribution to guiding future research.
