When you show a typical enterprise case<br />

(a) Burton-Apta Refractory Manufacturing Ltd.<br />

Burton-Apta’s 230 employees make refractory ceramic products and complete<br />

systems used in kilns that produce other ceramics. The company has worked to<br />

improve the operational quality <strong>of</strong> its systems and processes since the eary ’70 and<br />

initiated its operative quality regulaton system in 1976. The emphasis was on the<br />

connection between quality control (<strong>of</strong> production and product) and technological<br />

development.<br />

The idea <strong>of</strong> <strong>TQM</strong> was brought into Hungary by a former pr<strong>of</strong>essor <strong>of</strong> Tsukuba<br />

University and MIT guest pr<strong>of</strong>essor Shoji Shiba (Note: Depend on the request <strong>of</strong> a<br />

Hungarian Industrial Ministry) in 1986. The Burton-Apta Co. introduced the idea,<br />

won International Institute for Applied System Analysis (IIASA) Shiba-Award in<br />

1993, and acquired ISO 9001 certification. It won a first Hungarian National <strong>Quality</strong><br />

Award in the mid-sized business category at 1997 beginning <strong>of</strong> the year, the European<br />

<strong>Quality</strong> Award finalist in 1998, the European <strong>Quality</strong> Prize in 1999 and finally it won<br />

the European <strong>Quality</strong> Award in 2000. As a result, the production loss decreases and<br />

the market share is rising though an economic depression. The manager in this<br />

company completes new QMS (<strong>Quality</strong> Management System) now, and is performing<br />

the role <strong>of</strong> the best practice spread in all Hungary. Moreover, the influence <strong>of</strong> the<br />

special emphasis.<br />

The QMS based on ISO 9001 introduced in 1987 and registration was achieved in<br />

1995, and the development <strong>of</strong> the <strong>TQM</strong> system that integrates ISO 14000 and British<br />

Standard Institute’s BS 8000, the safety management system, and other QMS is<br />

carrid out in addition. The failure cost was decreased more than an increase <strong>of</strong> the<br />

prevention cost, activated the development activities, and strengthened the market<br />

position as a result. The first IIASA Shiba Awarde and the first Hungarian National<br />

<strong>Quality</strong> Award were won in 1996, and it became a winning <strong>of</strong> enterprise<br />

ecology-business awards in 1999 and 2001.<br />

The idea, the tool, and the technique <strong>of</strong> the quality were widely used after it had<br />

established it in 1986, the Bronze Medal at the 1900 World Expo in Paris, a certificate<br />

<strong>of</strong> merit at the 1935 World Expo in Brussels, the Hungarian National <strong>Quality</strong> Award<br />

in1999 and recognition for excellence by the EFQM in 2001 and 2002. Moreover, the<br />

Practices), HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point), and QCCP (<strong>Quality</strong><br />

Analysis and Critical Control Point) was decided, ISO9001 was registered in 1995,<br />
