This study takes the cell phone keypads manufacturing in Teehwa Kunshan plant (China) as an empirical case to show the relationship between multi-stage process quality and productivity. Based on the study results, two strategies are recommended for Teehwa Kunshan plant to reach a higher quality-productivity ratio (QPR). The first strategy is to have a 6% rise on percentage of good quality units in multi-stage process, and the second strategy is to make sure that the overall unit cost is controlled below 3.14 RMB. However, it depends on the resource availability and operations feasibility of the case plant to consider which one of these two strategies should be deployed.
