The quality is closely related to human relations in the process of production and consumption.
Improved product quality contributes to:1). Better meet the population's food;2). The most important factor in increasing the efficiency of production;3). Quality improvement - is ultimately a question of it, saving resources, to better meet human needs.
Product quality is influenced by the following factors:1). Quality of the labor force.a) the capital-labor;b) the qualifications of the employees;c) incentives;2). The quality of material resources:a) the quality of the underlying assets;b) the quality of the working capital.
In turn, higher quality characteristics of fixed and current assets which would produce better quality products, thereby increasing the selling price and profit.
The role of the quality and The role of the quality and competitivenesscompetitiveness
By improving the quality of products to address the following objectives:1.) Productivity;2.) Economic efficiency by increasing the price of high-quality products;3.)
