What’s The Cost Of Quality? [Podcast]

Our CEO Renaud Anjoran is joined again by Clive Greenwood and Max Phythian in this episode where they delve into the cost of quality.

They have an interesting and lively discussion about what the costs are that are related to quality, the ROI of investing in a zero-defect approach, the benefits of Quality Assurance, how to work with your suppliers and improve the quality coming from them even if they are not very quality-minded, and plenty of advice about how to invest in your processes in order to reduce costs.
