management
practices as applies
to asset rich
organisations.
Quality management ensures that an organization, product or service is
consistent. It has four main components: quality planning, quality
assurance, quality control and quality improvement. Quality management is
focused not only on product and service quality, but also on the means to
achieve it. Quality management, therefore, uses quality assurance and control
of processes as well as products to achieve more consistent quality.

therefore is product oriented and thus is in the QC domain. Testing
for quality isn't assuring quality, it's controlling it.

interpret major
processes that are
based on sound

enable project

criteria to occur in
an asset rich
organisation.
The most important lesson I learned from the units is the utilization of sound
policy to increase revenue with maintaining the quality of a product or services.
The quality and investment can be compromised for each other. It is essential to
maintain both capital and quality.
