2. Progress in carrying out reforms, including measures to prevent any
recurrence
Below is an update on the company's progress in reforming its quality
assurance, organizational culture and governance in accordance with the
Investigative Committee's recommendations.
Figure 1: Summary of measures to prevent recurrence in response to the
Investigative Committee's suggestions
(1) Quality assurance reforms
The Corporate Quality Assurance Reengineering Group, which was established on
October 1 and reports to the CEO, is executing the company-wide measures shown
in Table 4. Its aims are to create a new company-wide structure for quality
assurance led by the head office, to share knowledge and to provide flexible
support across business divisions.
To monitor the effectiveness of the company's governance system concerning
quality compliance (i.e., Corporate Quality Assurance Reengineering Group), on
December 6 the company launched the quality governance subcommittee, which is
headed by Professor Shu Yamada, Faculty of Science and Technology, Keio
University, and includes seven other external experts. The subcommittee, which
is under the Corporate Compliance Committee, has been commissioned by the
Executive Officers' Meeting to monitor and assess the Corporate Quality
Assurance Reengineering Group's activities. Roughly every two months, the
subcommittee will hold a monitoring meeting to report the status of its work
and assessments to the Executive Officer's Meeting and the Audit Committee. In
turn, the Corporate Quality Assurance Reengineering Group will implement
improvements using the Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) method.
The company has also commenced a process for selecting and hiring an external
Chief Quality Officer (CQO), whom the company intends to appoint in April
2022.
In addition, regarding the two-year budget of 30 billion yen established to
develop quality-assurance system infrastructure, the company has decided to
invest 490 million yen of this budget to modify production control systems at
the Kani Factory of Nagoya Works by April 2022 and to enhance testing
equipment that will go on line at the Nagasaki Works in June 2022. The company
will also reorganize related evaluation and testing processes for the
equipment to be installed at the Nagasaki Works.
Further, the company is investigating what aspects of operations and processes
it must strengthen to meet its contractual and product quality-assurance
obligations to customers. The aim is to complete a preliminary investigation
by the yearend and begin implementing measures in January 2022.
The Investigative Committee's second report states that there is
overconfidence in assuming that "there is no problem with quality," for some
products and this should be acknowledge. Instead, improvements should be made
in quality and technology. The company, viewing this as an extremely serious
issue, will introduce new measures to enhance the various quality-assurance
departments' knowledge of products and inspection equipment and also help the
department to respond appropriately to market needs and process defects.
Table 4: Progress of quality assurance reforms
Task Progress as of December 2021
① Creating a new company-wide structure for quality assurance (led by head ・Set up the quality governance subcommittee under the Corporate Compliance
office) Committee and recruited external experts. Kickoff held on December 6, 2021.
・To ensure compliance with laws, standards and customer specifications,
assessing how quality assurance systems/procedures and infrastructures can be
strengthened. For the quality assurance systems, completed investigation as
shown below ②-1. 1). For the infrastructures, commenced investigations at
all sites to find areas to strengthen. Preliminary results will be compiled in
December. As a means of preventing any recurrence, decided to invest 490
million yen in total to renovate production-control systems at Kani Factory of
Nagoya Works (scheduled to go into operation in April 2022) and enhance
testing equipment at Nagasaki Works (scheduled to go into operation in June
2022) .
② Company-wide measures for quality assurance reforms
②-1 Restructure the control functions 1) Greater independence and separation of chain of command:
Established a broad outline of the new quality-assurance system led by the
head office and adapted to each site, the details of which are being worked
out. Planning to complete the reorganization of quality-assurance departments
by around April 2022.
2) Strengthening of quality assurance functions:
With respect to "a. Optimization of the order process" through "f. Rebuilding
the quality management system" in the document released October 1, the company
is currently investigating existing structures and conditions at each
manufacturing site.
For "d. Enhancement of quality audits," the new revisions emphasize laws,
standards, customer specifications and product consistency. Trial audits are
now being conducted at some sites. Hereafter, the company will formulate
quality-audit methods and as the second line of defense audit-implementation
plans will be formulated by the Corporate Quality Assurance Reengineering
Group , aiming for a company-wide rollout on April 2022.
②-2 Addressing technical capabilities and resources issues 1) Strengthen and ensure compliance with laws, regulations and public
standards
To strengthen the management of information on laws and regulations relevant
to each site, the company is drafting the outline of a system via which the
Corporate Quality Assurance Reengineering Group will centrally collect and
manage information on laws and regulations common to all sites, aiming to
complete the management structure and system concept by March 2022.
2) Enhance quality through IT and digitalization
• The company has completed its site-by-site survey of consistency between
customer specifications and shipped products, centralized management of
test/inspection data, etc. and is currently considering basic company-wide
management-system specifications to be finalized by March 2022.
• The company is surveying tools for the digital management of customer
specifications and inspection data. Also, information on digitalization tools
under the purview of the Corporate Total Productivity Management &
Environmental Programs Group was rolled out company-wide in December 2021.
3) Strengthen head office support for manufacturing sites
The quality support team composed of internal experts has started gathering
information on problems experienced in specific workplaces and will expand
this effort to all sites from April 2022.
4) Training of quality-control personnel
As a step toward optimizing workforce sizes and human resources development in
the quality-assurance departments of manufacturing sites, the company is
working to visualize the skills it possesses. Knowledge of products and
inspection processes to acquire, as pointed out in the second report, will be
added to the skills, and specific training plan will be formulated by March
2022.
②-3 Re-fostering an awareness of quality compliance 1) Revitalize personnel rotation
Before addressing personnel rotation, the company determined that it has a
shortage of personnel in the various quality-assurance departments. In
response, the company is now ascertaining and analyzing each department's
workload and skills requirements, based on which an optimization plan will be
formulated by June 2022.
2) Instill awareness of quality compliance among senior managers
A compliance seminar for executives is planned in February 2022.
3) Quality Compliance Awareness Training
• Messages from the CEO and head of the Corporate Quality Assurance
Reengineering Group were issued during Quality Month (November).
• Improper Conduct Prevention meetings using the Kani Factory as a case
study are being held in all workplaces companywide from November 15 to
December 29.
• The Kani Factory and Nagasaki Plant cases were communicated at the
company-wide Compliance Managers meeting in November 2021.
• At the companywide meeting for persosn responsible for corporate quality
assurance planning, examples of improper quality control practices were
explained to participants, the CEO gave a talk and a roundtable discussion
between the CEO and quality-assurance managers took place.
• A company-wide e-learning program, entitled "The Basics of Quality," is
being provided to employees from October to December 2021.
(2) Organizational culture reforms
The "Team Sousei (Creation)" company-wide transformation project was launched
on October 16. Comprising selected employees who demonstrated a strong desire
for reform, the project is led by the CEO. It is currently putting together
proposals and an action plan for the creation of a "new" Mitsubishi Electric.
The proposals and action plan are to be submitted to the Executive Officers'
Meeting by the end of March 2022, after which they will be deliberated by the
Board of Directors and then put into action. Concurrently, the company will
renew its personnel system to correct an overly inward-looking organizational
culture, effect necessary changes in senior managers' behavior, and support
middle management and other at manufacturing sites.
Taking seriously the comments by the Investigative Committee's second report
on the necessity of developingthe middle management, the company will enhance
its personnel education program.
Similar to the first report on the ongoing investigation, the second report
has pointed out that the company's culture is not conducive to people speaking
up. In response, the company now aims to foster a culture in which managers
and those reporting to them can work together more closely and employees can
coordinate across divisional boundaries to address issues. The first step will
be to change the mindset and behavior of all Executive Officers.
In August, the CEO sent a message to all employees that the company will
achieve an organizational culture where "employees feel that they can consult
with their superiors," "failures are tolerated," and "problems are solved
together." In addition, after September, the company has been continuously
setting up opportunities for direct dialogues between the CEO and employees to
stimulate the type of communication essential to fostering a workplace culture
in which everyone can flourish and encourage positive behavioral changes of
each employees.
The company has also begun running workshops for Executive Officers to gain
better mutual understanding and align their reform objectives.
