Original Kurzfassung:
Quality is changing ? the future of quality will be defined by global changes. Various megatrends determine what issues are encompassed by quality and these have an effect on excellent products and on specialist quality personnel.
In many industries ? whether high-tech, healthcare or the service sector ? highly successful companies exist that by far exceed the current requirements of common quality standards. They distance themselves from their competitors by differentiating their product or service on the basis of an extended concept of quality. Such best practice organizations were invited to join the collaborative open foresight project ?Quality 2030? initiated by Quality Austria and the Institute for Integrated Quality Design (IQD) from the Johannes Kepler University Linz. In open foresights projects organizations share their expectations and knowledge on future developments. By this, synergies can be used, white spots can get identified and companies can create added value for themselves to enhance competitive advantages.
The aim of the ?Quality 2030? project is to shed new light on the discourse surrounding the issue of quality in commerce, politics and society and to detect the requirements that will in future allow companies to effectively compete in the domestic, European and global markets.
