QUALITY CONTROL DUE TO DAMAGED RETURNED GOODS AT THE CHANGHONG WAREHOUSE
Objective: This research aims to describe quality control related to damage in returned goods, identify quality control implementation using the PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) method. Method: To address these issues, the company implemented strategies such as fishbone diagram analysis and the 5 Why analysis, and developed a Work Instruction (WI) as a standard operating guideline to support comprehensive quality control improvements.
