I’m pinch-hitting for my co-host Mike Richman in the wrap-up of this past Friday’s episode of Quality Digest Live. Mike was off on vacation last week, so I presented the show myself.
On Friday’s show, we covered:
The FDA Mutual Reliance Initiative
In order to lower their inspection costs, avoid duplication of effort, and enable regulators to devote more resources to other parts of the world where there is greater risk, the FDA has created the Mutual Reliance Initiative (MRI). EU country inspectors inspect in their respective countries, the FDA inspects the manufacturing facilities in the United States, and the EU and the FDA rely upon each other.
How to Quickly Evaluate Coaching Needs by Being BOSS
“BOSS” is a tool for thinking about coaching needs and to quickly evaluate what might be most useful for each individual. BOSS helps to quickly identify a person’s coaching needs and be more proactive than reactive when it comes to coaching.
Training Students for New Opportunities and New Lives
To get more skilled CNC workers into the pipeline, MassMEP and its partners developed the Accelerated CNC Program, an intense 280-hour, eight-week training that attracts men and women of all ages and backgrounds, with or without past manufacturing or machining experience. Participants graduate with recognized credentials and college credits as well as Lean Manufacturing and OSHA certifications.
“Tech Corner: Olympus VANTA XRF Handheld Analyzer (prerecorded)”
Diane Hillhouse of Olympus demonstrates their handheld XRF XRD analyzer that identifies materials in seconds. It provides rapid, accurate element analysis and alloy identification to customers who demand laboratory-quality results in the field.
