REMARKS FOR QUALITY
ANALYSIS RESULTS
 Rule of thumb in each business should be learned and
surely is very useful, but not enough for all situations
 There are so many broader, creative but relevant ratios
to be combined and applied for deeper understanding
 Not just calculating & telling the figures, but explaining
the whys & finding the meaning for implications, before
concluding the justification as ‘easy map’ (not maze) for
relevant users
 Don’t be trapped on big % and increase or decrease, but
the meaningful results as signs to be noticed by analysts
 The power of integrative analysis to find the ‘big picture’
