What materiel people need to know about quality.
W. Edwards Deming has said that "Price without a measure of quality has no meaning." Materiel people must become intimate with the quality needs of their organization and ask their suppliers for that quality and insist on appropriate measures to ensure that quality. The burden of proof of goodness must be on the supplier.
