The Nespresso Product   The Nespresso product was a system that allowed the consumer to produce a cup of espresso coffee at home. Though simple in appearance and use it took Nestlé more than ten years to develop it. The system consisted of two parts: a coffee capsule and a machine. The coffee capsule was hermetically sealed in aluminum and contained 5g of roast and ground coffee. The machine consists of four parts –a handle, a water container, a pump, and an electric heating system. These four parts were cast into the body and formed the machine.   The new product was introduced in 1986. The original strategy adopted by Nestle was to set up a joint venture with a Swiss-based distributor called Sobal to sell the new product. This joint venture (named Sobal-Nespresso) was supposed to purchase the machines from another Swiss company (called Turmix), the coffee capsules from Nestlé, and then distribute and sell everything as a system one product, one price. Offices and restaurants were…

Biscuits and skill: Biscuit making in Britain and Germany This is taken from a study of biscuit manufacture in ten (10) British and eight (8) German firms. The type of biscuits produced varied greatly between the two (2) countries, largely owing to national tastes and demand. In Britain demand concentrated on relatively basic biscuits: either plan or with simple coating of chocolate, cream, or jam. In Germany, there was a much higher demand for decorated and multi-textured products (soft biscuits with jam filling in chocolate cases or layered variegated biscuits). Since this affected the type of biscuits each firm produced, it was difficult to measure and compare output and productivity between the British and German factories. An examination of crude output figures indicated that at the British factories employees were 25 percent more productive than German employees largely because British firms produced large quantities of simple low quality biscuits. However, when productivity…

How does quality assurance differ from quality control? Quality assurance refers to the project team to following the policies and procedures outlined by quality control documentation for creating deliverables satisfying the human needs for which the project was undertaken.
