WHO NEEDS MOTIVATING FOR QUALITY

This paper considers the four pillars of industrial enterprise: the investor, management, the work force and the consumer. It links all four to the proposition that mutual satisfaction can only be achieved when all understand and accept that quality is interdependent with, and as important as, initial price and delivery. Examples are given from the ship and marine equipment repair industry to illustrate how the quality of goods and services hinges on this essential motivation.
