Use the Taguchi quality loss function to measure unused energy costs in order to reduce costs

Abstract

The current research adopted an important topic linking the unexploited energy
costs that most Iraqi economic units suffer from because the customer delivered products
that are not suitable for use by reducing costs, after measuring them according to the
quality loss function Taguchi. Its effect on cost reduction, and the research is based on
the main hypothesis that the use of the Taguchi quality loss function helps economic units
measure unexploited energy costs and thus reduce costs. The research reached a set of the
most important conclusions, unexploited energy costs are one of the hidden costs of
external failure, which may reach 90% of the total costs of external failure, whose
relationship is directly to the number of units returned from customers, which arise
because of the customer's reluctance to buy products Economic unity as a result of
receiving products that are not suitable for its use. As for the most important
recommendations, economic units should use the Taguchi quality loss function to
calculate unexploited energy costs (hidden quality costs) without other methods, because
they depend on mathematical processes and are free from bias and personal appreciation,
and if data cannot be provided then depend on the market research method or the
multiplier.
