Dewasa ini Increasing efficiency telah menjadi perhatian utama di berbagai sektor ( industri,
bisnis ) baik di level nasional, regional maupun internasional. ISO (2012) telah mendefinisikan
efisiensi sebagai kemampuan untuk mencapai tujuan dengan menerapkan proses untuk
mengembangkan produk atau jasa berkualitas dengan cara menimalkan/menekan limbah, biaya,
atau usaha yang tidak perlu. Efisiensi dapat membantu perusahaan/organisasi dalam
memaksimalkan keuntungan mereka.
Diskusi panel hari ini bertujuan untuk mencari berbagai alternatif solusi, menemukan berbagai
cara terbaik dalam meningkatkan kesadaran akan pentingnya menggunakan dan menerapkan
standar melalui pendidikan dan budaya.
Pada kesempatan ini, kami atas nama panitia pengarah menghaturkan terimakasih kepada: (1)
