IDEA: Your company’s goal is to never ship a bad product. Show your employees you mean it.

Establish this as your company mantra if you want to maintain your integrity in the market. Post it in the production plant for all to see to establish your standard for your customers. Teach your employees never to ship faulty parts to a customer regardless of the deadlines. You can work your way back from a missed deadline but it is much more difficult why your product does not work AND you knew about it.
