About the Book

This is a "how-to" manual for the design and operation of quality assurance programmes that are effective, practical and profitable. Using state-of-the art quality strategy and test techniques such as the application of HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points) to seafood operations, this book provides sample inspection and test plans that are specifically tailored to seafood processing. All the important concepts of quality assurance are covered: process control, statistical quality control, management information systems, and more. Recommendations for quality programmes are bolstered with practical examples throughout the book. The book emphasizes profitability by introducing quality cost accounting, a practical tool for measuring and adjusting the impact of the quality assurance programme. With coverage ranging from initial organization to statistical quality control and programe implementation, this is an essential quality operations guide for all seafood processing managers. This book should be of interest to workers in process control and quality control in the seafood industry.
