In this episode, Becki Hiebert recommends taking a strategic approach to building and implementing a Quality Management System (QMS) in a startup.
Unlike a mature, established organization, a startup operates in a fast-paced and rapidly changing environment. That is why you have to think about both speed to support the near term goals, and scalability to support rapid growth in the future.
Her advice - focus on building the right mindset about Quality, use a risk-based approach to create a flexible system and nurture a collaborative work culture.
