Today we're diving what Elon Musk calls "The most common error of a smart engineer" and I'd agree. I've personally been involved in these type issues before. We discussed this on a podcast episode last year, The Three Stooges of Accident Investigation. Let's dive into elimination of a process vs optimization. Turns out, that same old Plan Do Check Act thing is the answer here as well.

Ton's of buzz words from the "Great Resignation" to "Gig Economy" float around, but we all have heard how hard it is to find and keep good employees. Recently we conducted a survey with OGGN & BIC Alliance to understand the top issues businesses consider worthy of contingency plans. More than hurricanes and other natural disasters or even cyber security was workplace instability. It is harder than ever to keep and attract good talent. What's the cause? And what's the solution? We might not have all the answers yet, but one thing is for sure, the new normal is not hear yet and may not be like anything we're expecting. At the end of the day, people are people and our old ways of may not work as well in our changing world. Good news is, you can improve and make the most of it. https://www.youtube.com/c/CoachEUrban www.coacheurban.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/erinurban QualityMatters podcast is streaming on: www.qmcast.com iTunes | Spotify | Google | Audible | Stitcher | TuneIn Learn more about #QualityMatters & Texas Quality Assurance : LinkedIn | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | YouTube | Rumble exas Quality Assurance https://texasqa.com

ISO 9001 CLAUSES EXPLAINED – 8.7 CONTROL OF NONCONFORMING OUTPUTS Control of nonconforming outputs can be viewed and several different lights. For instance if we’re looking strictly at the quality of our products or services this is a traditional non conformance report form. Other variations may be nonconforming material report, a defect form or just a non conformity. All of these imply the same general intent. https://texasqa.com/iso-9001-clauses-explained-8-7-control-of-nonconforming-outputs/ Texas Quality Assurance - where quality management gets simplified Learn more at https://texasqa.com | (281)756-7316 #QualityMatters podcast | https://qmcast.com Quality | Environmental Management | Occupational Health & Safety | Medical Devices Oil & GAS Manufacturing and Services

We’re back! We apologize for the pause in new episodes for #QualityMatters, but we’re back! Today we’re diving into a topic that Kyle is very passionate about, the role of small business in Oil & Gas here in America. The simple fact is, the super majors like Chevron and Exon do not play near the role in Oil & Gas extraction for the average American as small business does. Drilling Oil and Gas Wells Size of Firms by Number of Employees Percent of Total Employer Firms in the Drilling Oil and Gas Wells Sector Less than 10 70.5% Less than 20 80.5% Less than 100 93.4% Less than 500 97.4% Support Activities for Oil and Gas Operations Size of Firms by Number of Employees Percent of Total Employer Firms in the Support Activities for Oil and Gas Operations Sector Less than 10 71.4% Less than 20 82.9% Less than 100 95.4% Less than 500 98.4% The role of newly evolving ESG “Environmental – Social – Governance” requirements is placing additional requirements on small business. But this is not all bad news. The small businesses and teams that are prepared to implement, and quickly and more efficiently than the larger or otherwise slower counterparts are in a great position to dominate their space and stay competitive. https://sbecouncil.org/2020/04/17/reminder-during-the-covid-19-crisis-the-oil-and-natural-gas-industry-is-dominated-by-small-businesses/ Special thanks to our friend Mark LaCour of OGGN the “Oil & Gas Global Network” for joining us again today.
