Errors
Perceptual error
Example: After being on duty for 18 hr on a long overtime shift, the worker was carrying out a general inspection on an engine at around 22:00. He missed obvious damage to the internals of the cold stream duct area. The damage was found later, when another defect was being investigated.
Memory lapse
Example: Just prior to the departure of the aircraft, I remembered I had left a blanking plug within the engine inlet area. I advised the pilot that I needed to check that area again and retrieved the blank.
Slip
Example: Without thinking, I moved to wipe oil with a rag. The rag was ingested in the engine intake causing FOD [Foreign Object Damage].
Rule-based error
Example: A mechanic did not check the position of the flap lever before he pushed in a cockpit circuit breaker that provided electrical power to a hydraulic pump. When the pump started, the flaps began to retract automatically. This could have caused damage to the aircraft or injured other workers.
Violation
Example: At the end of a shift we realized that an engine hadn't been run to check for oil leaks when the aircraft was to be placed online. Under pressure to avoid a delay due to this oversight,...
I was unfamiliar with the aircraft, so I asked an airframe tradesman who was working on the aircraft and he pointed to a red rocker switch. I queried him and he said that must be it. I pushed the switch and the right engine turned over, with the propeller narrowly missing a tradesman who was inspecting the engine. There is no radio master in this aircraft. I immediately marked the "start" and some other switches and learned a valuable lesson.
Mischance
Example: A service procedure was carried out in accordance with the aircraft maintenance manual. The manual however, contained an error, which resulted in an aircraft system failing to operate correctly during a functional test at the end of the maintenance procedure.

This continues act as a barrier to entry for aerospace manufacturers located throughout Asia, specifically China, who are looking to capitalize on increased government spending on defense. The costs associated with hiring, retaining employees and funding security clearances for employees in this industry makes recruitment and retention critical. As a result of all these factors combined the barriers to entry are exceptionally high in the global military aerospace products
Furthermore, those experts who will be successful in directing their organizations into the future are the ones who comprehend corporate culture, tactics and policies, distinguish future difficulties and work solutions. Additionally, they should be able to deal handle all kinds of people, can communicate excellently orally and in writing and can identify, employ and train future managers. Those human resource executives with an organizational growth orientation have acquired power

Like many tools, it is dependent upon two things: 1) How it is used, and 2) the quality of the data. Six-Sigma was originally designed for use by Motorola in the early 1980s. It was put in place in order to not only uncover, but to solve, certain manufacturing processes that were not working appropriately. It improved the company by defining a clearly focus on measurable issues that could
Software quality management, compliance, and collaboration across the entire organization also need to be integrated at the process and role level with the LMA supply chain. As the LMA supply chain is very unique in that it specifically deals with prototypes often that are under covered under security guidelines and clearances, there needs to be continual focus on change management and task ownership in this area as well.
