Defect Avoidance and Defect Tolerance
I was gobsmacked yesterday; jaw on the floor thing; nearly fell of my seat.
Was in an all day meeting where Defect Avoidance & Defect Tolerance was rasied as being something totally new! This was with senior persons who, I am sure, should already have been aware of this.
I mentioned JSP 518 (Regulation Of The Naval Nuclear Propulsion Programme), HAPM, TQM, Crosby, Deming, Astute submarine construction and a few other things. I got a mixture of embarassed, disgusted and, "what the hell are you wittering on about" looks from most of them.
Wow! How disappointing.
