Some idle near-maunderings for a Friday. Skipping the Foto Friday today, mostly since I’ve been where the Internets are somewhat primitive. A perfect storm of low phone coverage (a hit against tethering) and primitive client facilities (just a plain ol’ hit). Working with some of those images can become bandwidth intensive, and hey, we can do other things, right Honey?
Looking for ideas on upcoming posts; questions to answer, tools to consider, trends to watch – that kind of thing. Email, comments – place them in a fortune cookie.
For How To’sdays:
- Step-by-step on creating Pareto charts in Excel 2013 (next week)
- Selecting a consultant
- Ishikawa diagrams (fishbone)
- Electronic tools for auditing
- …. usw
– Toolsdays are fairly rich with possibilities, so I’m not too worried about them (and truth be told, I’ve quite a few already written).
News coverage on the more prevalent ISO standards: 9001, 14001, 13485, 16949, 50001, 27001, 20001, 18001 (though not ISO – yet). This information isn’t terribly consistent in how it is released to the world, but I have my spies on the lookout.
What about case studies? A particular company’s journey to achieving Certification; their reasons, how they got there, what kind of help did they have, what stumbling blocks did they find along the way? Certainly can delve pretty deeply with each part of that.
Pet peeves when dealing with auditors? That could be interesting. Then there’s the other side of the coin – pet peeves when auditors deal with clients. Could avoid pain on both sides armed with that insight.
Considering a “How to be an ISO Auditor” type of post. Is it Tuesday fodder? Maybe change “Toolsday” to “How To Tuesday”… sounds like an explanation of how to be a day of the week. Would like to be a Sunday, I think. A Sunday before a holiday is the best kind.
Foods for thoughts – and looking for feedback. I’d like to create something here that folks will find useful.
Thanks for reading, Go Forth –
Calibrate Thyself.
