Has anyone got any good free literature on the evolution of quality in the automotive industry - from say the end of WWII to date ?

View Full Version : History - Evolution of quality in the automotive industry Marc 12th March 2002, 06:53 AM I think you'll have to get someone to give you an oral history. I don't recall ever seeing anything printed / on the 'net which specifically addresses the history of quality in the automotive arena. I could be wrong... M Greenaway 12th March 2002, 08:07 AM Ive seen a book by Juran on the subject at Amazon which I might try and get. Thanks Randy Stewart 12th March 2002, 09:24 AM I have a few things from my Subsafe QAI school in the Navy. It goes back to the Thresher and Scorpion disasters (1960s) if that will help fill in some. Al Dyer 12th March 2002, 09:36 AM Just a thought that will take some digging; http://memory.loc.gov Randy 12th March 2002, 10:03 AM Whatever there is, it should probably include Demming and the Japanese auto industry. My guess Atul Khandekar 12th March 2002, 11:26 AM A bit of what you are looking for is probably here: http://www.dti.gov.uk/mbp/bpgt/m9ja00001/m9ja000014.html Marc 13th March 2002, 04:43 PM Wow, Atul! That's one heck of a nice link! It pulls together a lot. I hope it doesn't disappear for a while as so many do. Thanks! :thedeal: |
