The topic quality check management in a company with particular reference to Emeinte Company Limited was purposefully designed to x-rayed the operational strategies and effects of quality check management system of the Emenite Manufacturing Company Limited.
The study become imperative due to increase in low quality output of many organizations, poor utilization of inputs (resources) inappropriate allocation of input and cost, and increased competition among products within the local and international markets.
The methodology used for the research was the operational research method. This method was used because of involved the application of the methods of science to complex problems arising in the direction and management of large systems of men, machines and materials and money in industry like Emenite Company Limited.
The data for the study was collected from the quality control department of the Emenite Company Limited.
The data was collected thorough the primary sources like the use of questionnaires prepared by the researcher and secondary sources e.g. profiles of Emenite Company containing the products of the company and their qualities.
The targeted population for the study was all the manufacturing and service organization within the country, while the sample population (size) was one hundred and twenty (120) workers randomly sampled from the quality check department of the Emenite Company.
Data collected was analysed with chi-square distribution (X2) and at the end of the analysis, the following was findings: that
i. The operational strategies especially on the areas of (QCM) of Emenite are more effective and efficiency, hence, their high quality products.
ii. As a result of there the company was able to produce high quality product.
iii. Also, due to there, their cost of their production was minimized, hence, effective and efficiency cost allocation.
iv. Emenite Company also was able to use there to promote their sales, hence making more profits.
v. Also, their (QCM) influences the behavior of their consumer by satisfying their needs, hence increasing their demand for Emenite products.
Based on the findings, the researchers recommends as follows:-
i. Good (QCM) should be encouraged and adopted by every manufacturing company.
ii. More qualified personnel should be trained to handle the job of (QCM) e.t.c.
1.0 INTRODUCTION
Increase competition and more discerning consumers has meant that all types of organization including Emenite Company Limited are striving for greater productivity, whilst maintaining or enhancing quality. This applies to both services and manufacturing organizations.
In manufacturing the greatest stimulus has been form Emenite Company Limited – Emenite have developed a total quality approach with the target of zero defects. This has been accompanied by lean production methods which have dramatically increased productivity. The key feature of high quality production is the use of quality check management system.
The aim of quality check management system is to produce items of high quality, exactly at the time they are required. There is pursuit of an excellence at all stages with a climate continuous improvement.
The key elements of quality check management system includes a more toward zero inventory elimination of non-value added activities, an emphasis on perfect quality is zero defect, short set-up; a more toward a batch size of one; 100% on time deliveries; a constant drive for improvement and demand –pull manufacture.
The application of efficient production techniques such as quality check management system have enable some manufacturing companies throughout the world to become very successful in quality production.
The drive for quality productivity is also apparent in numerous services and manufacturing industries improved methods and the use of Information Technology have enabled industries to increase their quality production.
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Many forward looking organizations in Nigeria including Emenite Company Limited are adopting a total quality management approach.

e. Quality systems must be planned and developed across all functions in the industry with adequate resources, equipment and training.
The study through this means will ensure high quality control production.
1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
The low productivities level, low quality level, astronomical rate of inflation, low exchange rate, and poor input utilization are currently problem of concern to most manufacturing company in Nigeria today. Based on this problem existing in the manufacturing and service industries, the managements are encouraging industries and organization to develop quality management system that shall promote the organization mean of reaching certain standards.
Before now, poor quality control measure in most industries has given rise to poor quality products, cost maximization, and poor profit making. Therefore, the operation of industrial quality control measured in any industries shall eliminate all the problems identified above.
1.3 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
This study is a veritable instrument to industrial development. Its importance in the industrial development cannot be over emphasized. Its significance is encroached on the commitment of most industries to maintained and practices an acceptable improved customer’s quality and satisfaction.
Another significance of the study is to maintain quality improvement, which must be embedded in the organization or industrial culture from top to bottom.
The study also encourages constant improvement in products and processes.
The study provides adequate training and equipment and encouragement pride in their own work and the product.
Another significance is that it encourages co-operation and teamwork and develops trust throughout the organization.
It encourages self-improvement and education at every level, and finally the study helps to choose suppliers for quality and reliability rather than price.
1.4 PURPOSE OF STUDY
