Quality is not a 'thing' that may or may not be present in the product...nor one that can be supplied if it is missing. Our own concept is very different. Quality must be designed into the product. And tests are not performed to detect faults -there shouldn't be any if everyone is doing their job- but rather to further improve the manufacturing process and so tighten specifications.

For Us, Product Quality Means Creating Products that Meet System Needs Akane Ohm is committed to much more than supplying fine products. We see ourselves as a think-tank for the effective utilization of computer technology, using its incredible potential to supply its own voracious needs. And that means supplying, even anticipating, the needs of the new information-oriented society. Our research and development work is directed at exploiting the latest technical advances, and in harnessing them to a wide variety of system needs. From the selection of raw materials, through manufacturing, to the processes of inspection and testing: all are subject to continuous R&D. This in-depth technological strength is matched by our investment in the latest manufacturing equipment, and by our on-going efforts to meet customer needs. Close cooperation with our customers is another secret of providing the quality they require. This, and the determination to 'get it right' at the design stage, is the secret of our enviable reputation for quality.
