CQI-22 Cost of Quality Guideline

Significance and Application of the CQI-22 Guideline

The 1st edition of the AIAG CQI-22 was published in March 2012.

The CQI-22 guideline was developed by AIAG to help companies systematically identify, evaluate and manage quality-related costs within their management systems. It differentiates between prevention, appraisal, internal failure and external failure costs (Cost of Quality), enabling organisations to analyse and strategically reduce these costs. As such, CQI-22 actively supports continuous improvement and the enhancement of efficiency.

The first edition of the CQI-22 Cost of Quality Guideline was published in March 2012.

The new CQI-22 standard can be purchased directly from AIAG.

You have the option to obtain the standard as either:

  • an e-document including the assessment, or
  • a printed hard copy with a downloadable assessment.
