4 steps to control food quality

When Raj discussed it with his DC (Distribution Center) personnel, he gets a conflicting view that the dispatch quality was really good. Raj sees an inconsistency as just the previous day he was resolving a conflict between his CC (Collection Center) and DC teams on dispatch quality vs. arrival quality. Each stakeholder had his own understanding of quality, and there was no consistent capturing or reporting of data.
