Project Quality Management by Kenneth Rose Pdf

Quality has been a much mentioned but little employed component on projects. Other books, tools, and even many training courses on the market are still oriented toward the manufacturing domain, and provide little information of relevance to project managers who work with intellectual processes more than the action details of production. So where have project managers been going for guidance on integrating the quality demanded in project implementations for achieving success? Right here! Project Quality Management, recipient of the 2006 PMI® David I. Cleland Project Management Literature Award in its first edition, offered project managers a specific, succinct, step-by-step project quality management process found nowhere else. It has now been updated and enhanced to also meet the needs of trainers, college instructors, and their students! Project Quality Management: Why, What and How, Second Edition demonstrates how to implement the general methods defined in A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge—Fifth Edition (PMBOK® Guide) and augments those methods with more detailed, hands-on procedures that have been proven through actual practice. This edition presents case examples that illuminate the theory of quality planning, assurance, and control with real-world narratives, including situational analysis and lessons learned. It also provides course discussion points and practical exercises at the end of each chapter. This book offers practical exercises relevant to many project domains, which will help readers gain experience using the tools and techniques of this project quality management process before applying them to their own project work.

Understanding ISO 9001 : 2015 Quality Management System, 2nd Edition, Revised and Expanded by Virendra Kumar Gupta Pdf

The 2015 version of ISO 9001 brings many enriching changes to promote quality excellence by organizations. The most significant change is the reinforcement of the fact that ISO 9001 is not just a quality issue. It is relevant as an overarching management topic. The book explains the requirements of the revised (2015) version of ISO 9001 in simple and practical manner. The objective has been to enhance understanding of the subject matter by managers and quality professionals. A conceptual understanding shall enable managers and professionals to design better systems and processes uniquely suited to their respective organizations. In view of this the first five chapters of the book explain concepts on QUALITY, PROCESS, PROCESS APPROACH / MANAGEMENT and PDCA. These are relevant for all management system standards being developed by International Organization for Standardization with the High Level Structure. Part II of the book goes into details of each clause focusing on processes and process interactions. We expect that the readers will appreciate that ISO 9001, now focuses more on expected outcomes through processes than mandating too many requirements.

Automotive Quality Systems Handbook by David Hoyle Pdf

The Automotive Quality Systems Handbook is a step-by-step guide to interpreting and implementing the ISO/TS 16949. Accepted by major vehicle manufacturers as an alternative to the existing US, German, French and Italian automotive quality system requirements, this Technical Specification defines specific requirements for the application of ISO 9001: 1994 throughout the automotive supply chain. While initially the standard will be voluntary, for the first time, second and third tier suppliers may be faced with pressure to undergo third party registration. After the year 2000, the next version of the standard has actually replaced the four existing standards, (AVSQ, EAQF, QS-9000 and VDA 6 1) and the price of entry to the global automotive market is conformance to this new standard. This handbook is an essential and comprehensive guide to enable organizations to interpret and implement the ISO/TS 16949. Unlike other books on the subject, each element, clause and requirement is analyzed in detail with guidance provided for its implementation. The handbook is written primarily for implementers and discerning managers, for instructors and auditors and contains a range of solutions that would be acceptable in the automobile industry. It includes details of the certification scheme, the differences with existing standards, check lists, questionnaires, tips for implementers, flow charts and a glossary of terms. This book gives more than an overview, it tells how you to do it! Contains detailed instructions and check-lists for implementation Addresses all ISO requirements
