Course Overview

Inspection catches problems in quality system maturity; it does not prevent them. Variation in this part of quality and productivity management is the enemy; averages conceal it. It suits anyone whose decisions touch this aspect of quality and productivity management, in large organisations and small ones alike. Every module pairs a short input on quality system maturity with structured practice on the participant's own material. The programme builds the judgement to know which parts of this area of quality and productivity management to standardise and which to leave flexible. The difficulty is not agreeing that this part of quality and productivity management matters — it is deciding what to stop doing to make room for it. Post-incident reviews keep identifying weaknesses in quality system maturity that were visible long before the incident. The programme converts the quality and productivity management capability from an area of general awareness into a set of repeatable practices. It ends with a prioritised list of changes to this aspect of quality and productivity management that the participant is prepared to defend internally.
