The practical part of the paper included estimating the Quality Loss for samples of Mosul factory for spinning and weaving products. The results obtained to support the hypothesis of the study. The study concluded that the Quality Loss function model provides performance measures to evaluate the factory ability in gaining opportunity of reducing deviation from the targeted quality. .
