Das Konzept des Quality Function Deployment (QFD) setzt mit Hilfe einer Reihe von Matrizen Kundenwünsche in Konstruktions- oder Designerfordernisse um. Die Konstruktions- und Designerfordernisse wiederum werden umgesetzt in Produkt- bzw. Teilprodukteigenschaften, die ihrerseits wieder auf Produktionsprozesse und anschließend auf spezielle Prozeß- und Steuerungsmechanismen übertragen werden. Dieses Buch wendet das QFD Konzept auf eine Reihe von unternehmerischen Schlüsselthemen an, die bislang unbehandelt geblieben sind, wie z. B. ISO9000, Service Design, Robust Design und Software Design. Das Buch wird mit Begleitdiskette geliefert, die mit der entsprechenden QFD Software ausgestattet ist. (11/97)
"Jim, why don't you apply to become an FBI agent?" Those words to me while serving as a young police officer in the spring of 1969 from my chief of police Perry Larson in River Falls, Wisconsin, started my journey. "Me an FBI agent?" I always thought them to be, if I thought of it at all, some nebulous characters from New York or Chicago. They certainly weren't farm kids from Central Wisconsin. This began an amazing twenty-eight-year journey and love affair with the greatest law enforcement agency in our country, the Federal Bureau of Investigation. It was beyond my wildest dreams.
This book is an inspiring collection of memories and accounts told by people close to Coach Cox. The stories are more than forty years old and the details may not be 100 percent accurate. As a result, if you knew Coach Cox, your version of the story may vary according to what has become your perception. Memories tend to fade with the years, and some tales about him may become bigger than life. Players would repeat stories about their beloved coach, never really knowing for sure if they were real or not. The tales are fun, and seem to get better each time they were told. Many tales, true or not, were believable-if you knew the man. Coach Cox heard all these stories about himself, and he seemed to enjoy them. In fact, he may have actually encouraged them! He did enjoy a good laugh, especially if it was about him. One thing is certain: John W. Cox was, indeed, bigger than life, and a Legend to all who knew him.
