46 PCB007 MAGAZINE I JUNE 2020 Why Your Company Should Focus on Quality Management Most companies have a quality management system (QMS), but the important factor is not if you have one; it's about how that system is implemented in your company's values, strate- gies, and goals.

Over the last 18 months, we have worked diligently in the board and officer group on our strategies and QMS.
