Purpose – The Taiwanese higher education sector is presently facing a significant challenge with regard to supply and demand. The purpose of this paper is to examine how, in this scenario, the balanced scorecard (BSC) can be used for performance evaluation as a strategic management tool.Design/methodology/approach – This study is based on a case study that should carry appropriate mission and vision. With the existing resources and targets, five major strategic themes are constructed, including an adequate financial structure, an accord with customer expectations, an excellent learning environment, organisational learning and management, and high quality staff.Findings – To achieve strategic themes it is necessary to propose specific and effective strategic targets. To evaluate progress and performance towards these strategic themes and targets, quantified performance measure indicators (PMIs) must be established in a specific and simple manner that allows all staff members to understand the orientation o...

ISO 9000 in the public sector: a successful case from Australia ISO 9000在公共部门:来自澳大利亚的成功案例
Pub Date : 2006-03-01 DOI: 10.1108/09544780610647856
Prakash J. Singh, Peter Mansour-Nahra
Purpose – Public sector organisations have been relatively late in adopting ISO 9000 quality management standards in comparison with those from the private sector. While the standards have the potential to provide many benefits, they could also reinforce certain detrimental orthodoxies. How suitable ISO 9000 is to public sector organisations is not clear. This paper aims to assess the suitability of ISO 9000 through the experiences of a public sector organisation.Design/methodology/approach – The organisation is a prominent Australian federal government agency operating in the maritime safety area. The experiences of this organisation were captured through interviews with key personnel and publicly available data. Specific issues analysed included the motivation for implementation, the registration process involved, the difficulties faced and the benefits derived.Findings – Overall, it is clear that ISO 9000 has been a success in this organisation. It had the “right” attitude in terms of its motivation fo...
目的-与私营机构相比,公营机构采用iso9000质量管理标准的时间较晚。虽然这些标准有可能带来许多好处,但它们也可能强化某些有害的正统观念。iso9000是否适用于公共部门组织尚不清楚。本文旨在通过一个公共部门组织的经验来评估iso9000的适用性。设计/方法/方法-该组织是澳大利亚联邦政府在海上安全领域的杰出机构。该组织的经验是通过对关键人员的采访和公开数据获得的。所分析的具体问题包括执行的动机、所涉及的登记过程、所面临的困难和所产生的利益。调查结果-总体而言,很明显ISO 9000在该组织取得了成功。就动机而言,它有“正确”的态度……

Pub Date : 2005-12-01 DOI: 10.1108/09544780510627624
G. Svensson
Purpose – The objective is to describe and conceptualize leadership performance in total quality management (TQM).Design/methodology/approach – A contingency approach to leadership performance in TQM is undertaken.Findings – Contingency models of leadership performance in TQM are introduced. Principal parameters in these models are timely contextual accuracies – as well as they contain foresight versus improvidence accuracies – of TQM. A contingency process of leadership performance accuracy in TQM is also introduced. The accuracy parameters are linked by a process accuracy zone. It serves as a descriptive tool of leadership performance. Finally, a typology of leadership performances in TQM is conceptualised.Research limitations/implications – Generally, this paper is restricted to the core values of TQM, in which a set of core values unites the descriptions of TQM. In particular, this paper is limited to the core value of leadership/management commitment. An important area of further research is to exami...

Barbiroli Giancarlo
Purpose – Enterprises are used to managing quality together with productivity but neglecting environmental management. This involves higher costs and lower benefits than if they were managed jointly. Therefore, efforts must be made to link all of the main aspects of the global performance/efficiency. In recent years several methodologies have been developed and implemented to consider and sort out single aspects of performance (concurrent engineering, quality function deployment, rapid prototyping, lean production, design for assembly and disassembly, total quality management, LCA) seeks to propose a method to attain such a result, within a continuous improvement environment.Design/methodology/approach – The method is based on the correlation between 12 aspects of performance/efficiency in the production processes, general specifications of the project, detail specifications for sub‐systems, and productive modalities.Findings – It is found that this can be done by constructing specific matrices, by utiliz...
企业习惯于将质量管理与生产力管理结合起来,而忽视了环境管理。与联合管理相比,这涉及更高的成本和更低的收益。因此,必须努力将全球业绩/效率的所有主要方面联系起来。近年来,已经开发和实施了几种方法,以考虑和整理性能的单个方面(并行工程,质量功能部署,快速原型,精益生产,装配和拆卸设计,全面质量管理,LCA),试图提出一种在持续改进环境中获得这种结果的方法。设计/方法论/方法-该方法基于生产过程中12个方面的性能/效率、项目的一般规范、子系统的详细规范和生产模式之间的相关性。发现-发现这可以通过构建特定的矩阵,利用…

The application of business process reengineering in the UK 业务流程再造在英国的应用
Pub Date : 2005-12-01 DOI: 10.1108/09544780510627633
C. Tennant, Yi-Chieh Wu
Purpose – The purpose of this research was to identify the key factors for success of business process reengineering (BPR) applications in the UK‐based companies.Design/methodology/approach – A questionnaire survey was used to gather primary research data from the UK‐based companies that have applied BPR to investigate the triggers for BPR, identify the main barriers, and enable the authors' to propose key factors for success.Findings – The survey found that the main reasons for applying the technique were external competitive pressures, internal cost reduction, and productivity improvements. The main barriers to successful implementation were reported as tactical short‐term solution driven approaches, which inadequately considered the people issues, and an over reliance on IT‐based technology. It is proposed that the factors for success include adopting a strategic approach, which prioritises business processes for BPR projects.

Pub Date : 2005-12-01 DOI: 10.1108/09544780510627615
S. Kulkarni
Purpose – Once the decision is taken to implement total quality management (TQM) in any organization, achieving TQM is a journey. It takes significant effort over an extended period of time. Seeks to propose a TQM performance index.Design/methodology/approach – An industry TQM performance index evaluates and ranks the various industries practicing TQM for a given period of time. Uses graph theory and a matrix approach.Findings – The index is obtained from industry performance function, which is useful for identification and comparison of the different industries for their TQM performance. If the TQM evaluation is done correctly, the evaluation will present the profile of the organization to different audience, i.e. the customers, governments, other industries, funding agencies and public.Originality/value – The model suggested for evaluation presents a logical approach to rank the industries and other organization practicing TQM or other quality program.

An AHP‐based study of TQM benefits in ISO 9001 certified SMEs in Trinidad and Tobago 基于AHP的特立尼达和多巴哥ISO 9001认证中小企业TQM效益研究
Pub Date : 2005-12-01 DOI: 10.1108/09544780510627651
W. Lewis, K. Pun, T. Lalla
Purpose – This paper empirically determines the extent to which the criteria of total quality management (TQM) are achieved in ISO 9001 certified small‐ and medium‐sized enterprises (SMEs) in Trinidad and Tobago (T&T). These criteria represent the attributes of TQM and as such one can equate these to the benefits of TQM that are achieved through ISO in SME. In addition, weaknesses are highlighted to which scarce resources could be parsimoniously allocated.Design/methodology/approach – The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) methodology is used to determine the percent weightings of four categories of performance criteria that were identified via a review of quality management literature. These criteria constitute four stages of TQM implementation including top management commitment (TMC), gap analysis (GA), systems deployment (SD) and continual improvement (CI). A process model together with an AHP framework using these categories of criteria is proposed. An empirical analysis of the criteria of each stage u...
目的-本文实证确定了特立尼达和多巴哥(T&T)通过ISO 9001认证的中小型企业(sme)实现全面质量管理(TQM)标准的程度。这些标准代表了TQM的属性,因此可以将它们等同于通过ISO在中小企业中实现的TQM的好处。此外,还强调了可以吝啬地分配稀缺资源的弱点。设计/方法/方法-层次分析法(AHP)方法用于确定四类绩效标准的百分比权重,这些标准是通过对质量管理文献的审查确定的。这些准则构成实施全面质量管理的四个阶段,包括最高管理层承诺(TMC)、差距分析(GA)、系统部署(SD)和持续改进(CI)。在此基础上,提出了一个流程模型和AHP框架。对各阶段的标准进行了实证分析。

In addition, weaknesses are highlighted to which scarce resources could be parsimoniously allocated.Design/methodology/approach – The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) methodology is used to determine the percent weightings of four categories of performance criteria that were identified via a review of quality management literature. These criteria constitute four stages of TQM implementation including top management commitment (TMC), gap analysis (GA), systems deployment (SD) and continual improvement (CI). A process model together with an AHP framework using these categories of criteria is proposed.
