Today&rsquo / s competitive environments and heightened expectation of customers make it necessary to improve quality of products and processes continuously. Therefore, quality improvement is a major concern for companies. Determining improvement priorities for not only long but also short term bottom line results is a key problem in quality improvement management. In this thesis a practical decision matrix based method is developed for selecting quality improvement projects by considering throughput and quality loss in manufacturing environments with inspection error and rework. Performance of the proposed method under different experimental conditions is analyzed and results are discussed.
