MESSAGE FROM MD & CEO
Our quality management system emphasizes upon supplier development by proactively identifying
& implementing improvement opportunities. It also enables us to track performance of our supply
chain and take timely corrective measures for continual improvement.
We believe that building and maintaining mutually beneficial supply relationship and two way
communication is vital to enable you to supply what we need. Therefore we must clearly state our
requirements. We have prepared this document which shall fulfill this need and provide consistent
guidelines with which we can work together to produce desired results effectively.
From now onwards, all our supply chain partners must adopt and comply with the requirements as
detailed in "Supplier Quality Manual". We trust, this manual will assist you in your efforts to meet
our business requirements consistently.
We also expect our suppliers to take initiatives in the direction of addressing environmental
concerns and take concrete steps towards "Greening of Supply Chain".
• Be a market leader

The plan for this audit shall be drawn so as to cover all HMCL parts at least once in three
months.Priority shall be given to safety critical ( HS/HA/HB ) parts & performance parts.
Findings of this audit shall be compiled , discussed among the Cross functional teams & an
action plan shall be derived . The summary of total audit findings and implementation
status with action plan is auditable by HMCL team.
All the critical process shall be listed down and on these work stations, only trained manpower shall
be deployed & effectiveness shall be monitored through escape rate. A sufficient spare pool shall be
identified for these processes and any replacement in case of absenteeism shall be done only from
this spare pool.
(Refer Format HMCL:BP:DOL;FF:08)
As an outcome of PFMEA review, PQCS , Inspection plans & work standards shall also be reviewed.
Reviewed PFMEA is auditable by HMCL.
HMCL's PQCS (Process Quality Control sheet) format consists of two sheets:
1st Sheet --- Indicates the identified components process flow and list of bought –out-
parts,its vendors and the off loaded processes.
2nd sheet --- Indicates the quality characteristics and control of manufacturing condition
for the identified components process flow. CTQs are identified for product/process in this
sheet. Any change in IPPT conditions shall call for review of PQCS & revised PQCS shall
be submitted as & when reviewed.
Note: Standardization of PQCS is mandatory. Control plan of the supplier is also acceptable,
provided it covers the contents of PQCS 1 & 2 of HMCL

All the critical & special processes (as per TS:16949) shall be initially qualified & records
shall be maintained. Necessary trials shall be conducted by simulating different process
parameters including the input material & consumables. like paints chemicals etc. Actual
values shall be recorded for product results & process parameters. Wherever best results are
achieved, the process parameters' specifications shall be frozen & updated in the product's
PQCS.
This process shall be carried out at all manufacturing equipments available separately, i.e.,
if two heat treatment plants / furnaces are available - qualification shall be done separately.
In case of new manufacturing equipment, supply commencement shall take place only after
process qualification & adherence of IPP tag system.
For critical parts (HS / HA / HB) & high precision machined parts, process qualification
shall be done so as to achieve a minimum Cp of 1.67
(b) Process Re-validation:
All the qualified process shall be re-validated at a frequency of one year or as agreed upon'
and whenever there is a major overhauling in manufacturing equipment or change in input
material. In this re-validation, only the process parameters specifications which are already
frozen, needs to be validated against product specifications . If any change is done in
process at this stage, PQCS / Control plan shall be reviewed and is auditable by HMCL

Problem Solving Process
While identifying the problems, focus on customer raised issues or 3Ms (Muda/ Mura / Muri) or
Seven Wastes within the organization (Motion, Over production, Storage, Transportation,
Correction, Over processing, Waiting) or 4-Ms Man, Machine, Method, Material
b. Use Pareto Analysis or Rating Method (based on some criteria i.e. Customer Satisfaction,
Manpower, Urgency, Safety, Time, Rejection / Cost, Quality, Delivery, Productivity) for
selection of problem.
Use a Road Map to plan the time required for the activities before starting, and to work within a time
bound frame.

Problem definition is explaining where the problem occurs, conditions prevailing at that time and
what are the difficulties and losses incurred in a general way.
Even though team members are from the same organisation it does not mean that all have clarity
about the problem selected. So it is necessary to define the problem.
First study the 'affected objects' against 'normal' & understand the differences. Next, by using a
'Flow Diagram' study the entire process related to that product considering the problem spots in
terms of occurrence & detection.
Use of flow diagram helps in having clarity of the problem by all members. There may be some
members who are not familiar with the entire process.
Analysis calls for Data Collection on all possible aspects of the problem i.e. number of times the
problem occurred, effect of the problem in detail and data on the losses etc. With the help of the
Since problem is in the work area of the team members they know the seriousness of it and also have
an idea or reason for this problem. The problem is persisting; either because no serious effort was
made to address it or they were not involved or only rectification kind of actions were taken, (no
corrective and preventive actions). Many times the solution is eluding them and they are unable to
pin point the actual cause. A close observation of the operations as the process is. going on, and
recording them would be helpful at this stage.
One important point to be remembered is that problems have multiple causes (variables). There are
variations occurring and some of them could be contributing to the problem. Before an analysis is
carried out it is necessary to find out the possible causes. They need to be collected and put in an
orderly manner for better understanding. The Cause and Effect Diagram helps in organizing them
for further study. Such an attempt will give clarity and will help to be cautious when some other
cause creeps in at a later date. All causes are expressed verbally.
• Takes advantage of team members' knowledge while preventing their biases from
controlling or misdirecting the course of investigation
• Shows evidence-based causal relationships between the primary effect and the root causes
and relevance of those facts can be verified
• Would help the team and the management understand what actions are to be taken to try out
the required solutions subsequently and who all in the organization need to take those
actions.
Root cause has to be established with the help of data. In case, for any reason, it is not possible to
collect data it may be established based on experience. But experience has also to be quantified.
Reflect on the lessons learnt during the proj ect work & use it for the future.

Hero MotoCorp has been the market leader in two-wheeler industry in India right from the
beginning of the company. Over the years Hero MotoCorp products have been able to make a special
place in the hearts of millions of Indians. No wonder Hero MotoCorp is the world’s largest
manufacturer of two-wheelers for almost a decade now.
The success of our products depends crucially on its appearance and visual appeal. Especially in this
age of increased customer’s expectations this has become one of the most important criteria to sell
the product in market. It has become essential for all our employees as well as the suppliers to
produce the vehicles within our present aesthetic standards.
This aesthetic quality manual is an initiative the direction of making a compilation of expectations of
acceptable aesthetic quality at Hero MotoCorp. By acceptable quality, here we mean the level of
quality which represents a realistic balance between customer’s expectation, the capabilities at Hero
MotoCorp and our suppliers manufacturing processes and being cost-effective. While it is important
to recognize that our standards represent today’s conditions, we must do continuous improvements
in this direction. We also recognize that as our technology and technology of our suppliers, we must
ove our quality expectations.
Absence of specific aesthetic requirement standards and their subjectivity has always been a
problem for Hero MotoCorp and it’s suppliers in terms of un-necessary rejections and stoppage of
lines.
We hope this manual will replace much of this subjectivity with objectivity based on specific
requirements.
GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
Un-like any other vehicle, motorcycle is a kind of vehicle where most of its parts are exposed and it
has the largest number of parts which are visible, making the aesthetic quality most important part of
manufacturing/ designing.
Both Hero MotoCorp and the supplier should be involved in setting the aesthetic standard of a part.
All standards must be properly documented to ensure consistency with respect to expectations. The
criteria used to make an aesthetic quality standard will be discussed later in this manual.
It is important to note that aesthetic requirements may change during the product life-cycle with the
changes in expectations arising due to any reasons.
Different aesthetic classes and appearance grades will be explained in detail later in this manual.
TEMPORARY DEVIATIONS
At times it may be required to review the aesthetic standard of an existing part. The process should
remain same as it was a newly developed part. The criteria adopted remain consistent as well as the
specific steps required to set the standard. We may also find it necessary to issue a deviation to the
aesthetic standard on a temporary condition that exists with that part. Temporary conditions are
ed as not representative of the process or the individual part in long run.
It is responsibility of the inspector / engineer at that time to consult with the aesthetic quality in
charge to determine whether a deviation may be issued.
All temporary deviations issued must be accompanied by time-bound corrective action plan.
Every part purchased or produced at Hero MotoCorp has specific issues that are relevant to that
specific part, like part design, tooling design or material. During aesthetic standard development
these issues should be addressed considering the customer’s expectations, technology limitations
and cost. After considering all of these, part specific issues against the base criteria the aesthetic
standard of the particular part should be finalized.
Generally such requirements are mentioned in the respective parts drawings of HMCL.
INSPECTION GUIDELEINES
Again in order to the replace subjectivity of quality inspection with objectivity based on specific
requirements, following guidelines should be followed both by our suppliers as well as HMCL.
TRAINING
Persons doing the visual inspection must be properly qualified. This should include review of the
types of discrepancies that can occur and actual inspection of parts under the guidance of
experienced person. Persons inspecting the parts should be familiar with the following:-
VIEWING PROCEDURE
Parts should be viewed as zoned. In other words, the viewing process should have minimal effect on
whether a part meets the aesthetic standard or not. There should be minimum reliance on viewing
procedure.
LIGHTING
Proper lighting conditions must be present within the area where inspection occurs. This will
facilitate the inspection process and help ensure that parts are properly measured against the
aesthetic standard. This will also help maintaining the objectivity of the inspection process.
LIMIT SAMPLES
Limit samples of the part can be utilized to convey the aesthetic and appearance class of that
particular part. Picture can be used as templates in case the parts are bulky. Samples must be
maintained at both the supplier and HMCL to minimize inconsistencies in the application of
aesthetic standard. Physical samples must be protected from dirt or damage and shall be reviewed
periodically to ensure that they represent current process capabilities. These physical samples can be
useful for training and for solving discrepancies. They should be made available to inspectors at all
times.
MATERIAL HANDLING
Material handling of finished surfaces is essentially important. Improper handling of parts can
damage the surface finish so packaging, transportation, trolley design, protective padding etc must
be agreed upon and these procedures followed to ensure surfaces are not degraded.
Parts suspected to be not conforming to aesthetic standards must be confined in an area separate
from acceptable parts. These parts should be properly labeled to prevent them from entering the
normal flow of acceptable material. Written procedures should define how rejected material will be
reviewed and dispositioned. Rejected material must not be allowed to accumulate and information
gathered should be used as feedback for process improvement.
Suppliers/ in-house shop must actively be involved in the use of preventive/corrective action.
Aesthetic discrepancies found should be documented and maintained to aid in the continuous
improvement process. The records must contain sufficient information and details to allow for
identification of the major issues and provide for the determination of root cause of those issues. The
documentation may also be used to determine process capabilities and future aesthetic requirements
for that part as well as others that utilize the same production process.
SCOPE
The aesthetic quality manual covers the basic parts of the two-wheelers manufactured at Hero
MotoCorp Ltd , in which the whole part or it’s portion has decorative value. The decorative value is
broadly divided in two classes as explained below :-
1. BASIC CLASS: The basic class is the fundamental appearance class according to which
critical portions of a part are assessed and specific appearance class of an entire part varies
depending on the sum of the importance of the individual portions of the part.
2. APPEARANCE CLASS: It is for the decorative value of the portion of the part depending
upon part design and fitment.
Depending upon the importance of decorative value, the parts or it’s portion are designated by the
appearance class ‘sa’ to ‘c’.

This test is conducted by giving illumination of approx 300 lux on the surface of the specimen with
black back ground using standard light ‘D 65’. Approximately 50 cm apart from the specimen and
with a natural posture check the specimen visually (with normal eyesight), for the following:-
exposure of base materials, blisters, peeling, pinholes, pits, rough surface, stain, spots, burnt
deposits, dull deposits, wrinkles, uneven surface, polishing marks, deformation due to polishing,
flaws on base metal, hammer marks, scratches, mottle gloss etc. However polishing marks,
scratches mottle and gloss may be checked visually as required, from the distance of approx 25cm,
against the limit sample which is agreed upon mutually.

Tough aesthetic quality measurement is a visual checking process in which the human eye is the tool,
but to quantify the aesthetic quality level for certain criteria and to compare with standards,
following tools/instruments can be used for measuring the aesthetic quality of the parts:-
A MANUFACTURING LOCATION SHOULD HAVE THE COMPLETE INSPECTION FACILITY FOR CHECKING THE
ASSEMBLED FIXTURE.
B ENSURE ALL THE FIXTURE BLOCKS SHOULD BE OK AS PER DRG.
C ALL BASE PLATES AND PROFILE BLOCKS SHOULD BE MANUFACTURED AT VMC/JIG BORING.
D PROPER HEAT TREATMENT AS PER THE DRG TO BE ENSURED FOR ALL THE PARTS
DRG REVIEW
UPDATE WHEN EVER ANY CHANGE IS DONE IN THE FIXTURE FOR IMPROVEMENT AND GIVE THE COPY TO ALL
CONCERNED AND DESTROY THE OLD DRG AT ALL LOCATIONS
A PRODUCTION PERSON SHOULD NOT MODIFY OR CORRECT THE FIXTURE IF THE RESULTS ARE NOT OK, HE MUST STOP
B THE PRODUCTION AND CALL THE AUTHORISED PERSON OF FIXTURE MAINTAINACE TO CHECK AND CORRECT THE SAME.
C HAMMERING THE PART IN THE FIXTURE FOR PROPER SITTING OF PART IS NOT PERMITTED, ( IF REQUIRED DO
TAPPING OF PART WITH PLASTIC HAMMER ( MALLET))
D ENSURE FIXTURE IS CALIBRATED AS PER THE DESIGN FREQUENCY AND HAVE VISUAL CONTROL OF THE SAME.
