Actual exam question for CIPS's L3M2 exam

Question #: 35
Topic #: 2

[All L3M2 Questions]

A short definition of quality sometimes used (including in some UK legislation), said originally to come from Joseph Juran, is:

AFitness for sale

BFitness for purpose

CFitness for consumption

DFitness for shipping

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

Is it fit for purpose? Can it do the job required? This is one definition of quality.

The nearest answer to this would have been 'fitness for sale' perhaps, but this has no legal or such a strong traditional standing.

I thought quality was all about making the product look good on the shelf, not just being fit for purpose. Hmm, maybe I need to brush up on my quality management basics.

B) Fitness for purpose - that's the classic definition of quality from the quality management guru Juran.
