Annotation: Advancing the idea that there is no quality system plan that fits all businesses, the author provides CEOs and managers with guidance in evaluating quality and process systems and choosing the optimal components for a company. While the food service industry is emphasized, suggestions offered should be applicable to hardware manufacturers, process industries, and service organizations. Case histories demonstrate how basic nonstatistical quality and process techniques have been used with varying degrees of success.

Publisher Description:
There are over 24 quality control systems recommended for the control and improvement of quality and process; there are over 30 techniques and buzzwords suggested for implementing these systems and to assist in learning about these systems and techniques; there are well over 200 courses, seminars, programs, and conferences available. This book discusses the pros and cons of these many alternatives, suggests how an effective system can be assembled or reconstructed by selecting and combining some basic engineering methods, some non-statistical methods based on team efforts, and seven statistical tools, with computer application assistance. Different requirements of different companies mean there is no one best way to construct or modify a quality system plan. There is no plan that can fit all sizes. This book presents-in clear and simple terms-the needs, goals, cautions, and suggested procedures you should consider when modifying or constructing an effective system for your company.
