Japan implemented TQM successfully, and USA did not. It is a major culture change that the USA is not willing to make. Japan makes higher quality goods as a result. I do not know any UAW folks, so - "no comment" on that. It does seem like the Big 3 is constantly at war with the UAW, so with all that going on it is hard to focus on quality cars. Honda USA and Toyota USA do not, as of yet, have UAW workers. Interesting?! |
BTW Toyota is now one of the big 3 they supased Ford some time ago
