Editor's Notes

  • #10 Its international It’s a standard for all projectsBut there is a considerable paper trail &amp; system embedded into the organisation.For this to be truly successful the company/organisation has to be committed to on-going implementation. Usually something smaller and more tailored is required for a project because of its limited time and resources. The organization&apos;s company quality management may provide sufficient guidance for the project – the first place to start.
