Product Quality
The overall characteristics of a product that determine its ability to satisfy stated or implied needs.

TECHNICAL DEFINITION
Product Quality refers to the totality of features and characteristics of a product that bear on its ability to satisfy stated or implied needs, encompassing attributes like performance, reliability, durability, aesthetics, and compliance with specifications and customer expectations.
BACKGROUND
Manufacturing is the creation or production of goods with the help of equipment, labor, machines, tools, and chemical or biological processing or formulation. It is the essence of the secondary sector of the economy. The term may refer to a range of human activity, from handicraft to high-tech, but it is most commonly applied to industrial design, in which raw materials from the primary sector are transformed into finished goods on a large scale. Such goods may be sold to other manufacturers for the production of other more complex products, or distributed via the tertiary sector to end users and consumers.
