Abstract
There is an agreement on the weakness of the Iraqi economic units ’awareness of the importance of applying modern management accounting techniques, including simultaneous engineering technology in enhancing the quality of their products, as well as the weakness of their accounting system in providing the detailed accounting information necessary to develop and improve products that keep pace with economic and social developments and in order to address this problem, The research aims mainly to study and analyze the simultaneous engineering technology and its reflection in enhancing product quality in order to meet the desires and requirements of customers and gain their loyalty, by using the Quality Function Dissemination (QFD) tool, which is one of the simultaneous engineering technology tools. For the textile and leather industries / textile factory / Hilla, a research community, The sewing workshop (1) was divided as the research sample, and to know the extent of its use of simultaneous engineering technology when producing the medical bedding product, as the development and improvement of products and their quality enhancement were discussed in the laboratory in question, and to achieve the research objective, the researchers relied on data from the laboratory records that they obtained On it from the administration of the sewing workshop (1) and from personal interviews with the administration and its workers and field living in the factory, The two researchers reached a set of conclusions, the most important of which is that the economic unit of the research sample did not take into account the use of simultaneous engineering tools to enhance the quality of its products, as well as the lack of classification of concurrent engineering mechanisms, which paved the way for the use of Quality Function Dissemination (QFD). (QFD) to know customers' requirements and desires for a specific product by analyzing their feedback; It also works to determine the engineering characteristics through the opinions of some engineers working in the economic unit, the research sample, and thus contribute to achieving a wide range of competitive advantages for the economic unit, the research sample. With quality standards and measures assumed.
