Similarities and comparisons of TQM, EFQM, MBNQA and ISO 9000 Family

[Jens Kristiansen]

I am currently working on my final thesis regarding optimization of excellence models with focus on implementation and usage of these. This is aimng to a further analysis of, whether these frameworks can aid in the implementation of Sarbanes-Oxley (404 - management resbonsibility and Internal control), in a way that will potentially optimze and cost reduce the implementation process and the maintanence process.

I am seeking views in comparisons between different excellence models (ISO 9001, EFQM, MBNQA) and are hoping some suggestions regarding litterature.

Thank you

I did a search here in the Cove with the keywords "SOX ISO 9001" and came up with this. Hopefully, that will get you started.

Earlier this year, I participated in an American Society for Quality (ASQ) course titled "How to Use ISO 9001 to Reduce the Risk from Sarbanes-Oxley". The instructor was Sandford Liebesman. If you would like his contact information, please send me Private Message via the Cove.

This is the table I am enclosing for cross reference. I have used this table to answer to a question for my M.Sc. (TQM).

Okay...just use the Search function (below the box that says "Welcome, Jens Kristiansen") and type SOX ISO 9001 in the search box.
