            Abstract : 
The author describes the design and implementation of a quality information system in the computer-integrated manufacturing environment. Various data elements related to quality functions an be integrated through a closed-loop quality information system. It is suggested that an emerging generation of computer workstations, communication protocols, and database management systems will make the computer-integrated quality information system a reality at affordable prices. A systems development methodology for designing and implementing quality information systems is discussed
