Audits are something I do have experience with when I was managing a lot of communication equipment. I understand how PAINFUL they can really be, especially if poorly mismanaged from previous personne...

In the strict sense for the last sentence and technically, I don't think I've ever been in the position to have a negative experience with QC and QA. I agree that the PDCA cycle highlights the depende...

In terms of the hierarchy of quality, in my own way, I do think that a unified quality system sounds ideal. I naturally gravitate towards that given the experience I have with similar leadership so in...

To me, regulation can seem like a double edge sword, but I'd like to say outright that I think safety is paramount. With this in mind, the FDA's intense and rigorous observations should build trust fo...
