He stated that auditors have not audited the "value-added" features of QS9K well enough! They've looked at too many of the details of the elements and have not had a systems approach as the B3 intends.
That was the message from Roger Eastin on October 21st, i picked it up on my second read and it buzzed around in my head for a few days.
It struck a cord because i would completely echo the view of whoever said that (I think it was someone from the big 3). I will no longer even bother making any apologies for not fully understanding any of the ISO standards. I will continue to use it as a background method of inforcing discipline (I dont know anything else that can do the same job) but present it as part of a wider programme of company improvement.
The Japanese laugh at our attempts to solve quality problems with standards, they believe that only peoples attitude and approach will really create progress.
It sounds like the Big 3 have recognised the problem, but are trying to solve it with yet another standard.
I know ive seen this before on this site, but it doesnt hurt to repeat it on this thread;
