Blog Post
‘If “passion” is behind quality, does passion also apply to digital quality’?
Truly, quality matters in the age of digitization. Employees, customers, and suppliers now have to consider quality in light of digitization, particularly because customer preferences have totally evolved. Since digitization is a major trend, quality professionals face numerous challenges in this regard. Consequently, it is imperative that we find new ways to think about quality.
