About this title

Synopsis

Many organizations recognize the need for a strong quality program but few have the tools to ensure successful start-up and maintenance. Managing for Quality gives you the strategic tools to integrate quality into the heart of your company's business plan - and use it to gain a strategic edge over the competition.
V. Daniel Hunt examines the current state of global quality and helps you develop a program that will be effective now and in the future. You'll see how Total Quality Management can be coordinated and implemented to make resource integration a reality - and a success!
Hunt also provides a comprehensive guide to leading schools of thought and practice, including the Deming Philosophy, the Juran Trilogy, and the Crosby School. By assessing the elements and benefits of each, you'll be able to choose the strategy - or combination of strategies - that work best for your company.
Through easy-to-follow explanations and examples, Managing for Quality reveals the most effective ways to overcome the challenge of resource integration - and make the manufacturing process work more efficiently; benchmark the level of quality performance in your organization and boost productivity and profits; and apply for national and international quality awards to significantly raise the level of quality within your company.
Offering practical tools and techniques, sound integrative strategies, and quality improvement stories from Federal Express, Globe Metallurgical, Motorola, and others, Managing for Quality is your complete quality guide - to satisfy CIRM course requirements and build organizational excellence.
