The increasing competition in the global market and high consumer expectations for quality products, encourage companies to be able to produce quality products which meets international standards. One of the activities in improving quality that conform to product specifications is applying appropriate quality control system involving all aspects of the company that are integrated with the standard ISO 9001: 2008 as a guide. However, the rubber industry in West Sumatra still faces obstacles in the implementation of quality control techniques and tools of as experienced by ABC and XYZ. This study aimed to evaluate the application of quality control tools and techniques in the manufacturing company which is certified ISO 9001: 2008, ABC and XYZ. This research was conducted by calculating the value of DPMO (Defect Per Million Opportunities). Based on the results found that the two companies have different DPMO value. PT ABC obtained by 5,2σ sigma level from DPMO value of 94.33 for the types of defects whitespot and sigma level of 4,2σ of DPMO value of 3365.096 to defect type of metal, while the XYZ obtain sigma level of 5,3σ from DPMO value of 728.697 for the types of defects whitespot and sigma level of 4,8σ of DPMO value of 425.441 for the type of metal defects. From the analysis it can be concluded that the two companies have not been effective in applying the techniques and tools of quality control in accordance with the standards ISO 9001: 2008 in order to achieve continuous quality improvement. This is indicated by the key success factor of the implementation techniques and tools of quality control is not applied appropriately in achieving continuous quality improvement.

Measuring the effectiveness of a continuous quality improvement cycle in education is a cumbersome and sophisticated process. This article contributes a comprehensive self-assessment instrument for identifying the strengths and weaknesses of all phases of a continuous quality improvement cycle, including planning, data collection, analysis and reporting, and implementation of improvements. To this end, a four round Delphi study soliciting a total of 23 program quality experts from four universities was conducted. The produced survey instrument contains a total of 50 questions. The instrument may be used by quality experts in education to judge the quality of their continuous quality improvement cycle that endeavours to assess the attainment of learning outcomes in various undergraduate educational programs. Moreover, the instrument could be exploited to infer relevant user and system requirements and guide the development of an automated self-assessment tool aimed at identifying the shortcomings in educational continuous quality improvement cycles.
