**WHAT’S NEW for December 2013
- Your Feedback Is Essential To Our Quality!
- Whether you are a PDCA die hard or DMAIC devotee, you know that quality is a dynamic, cyclical concept requiring ongoing improvement. You also know that part of that cycle must involve monitoring, evaluation, assessment, re-assessment…; in other words, some kind of feedback. As we complete another year, we would like to ask for your feedback on this newsletter. Yes, we would enjoy receiving compliments so we know what things to maintain, but, we are also very interested in your constructive criticism and improvement suggestions as well. Those are what help us get better! It’s your turn to share.
