par une démarche qualité renforcée

français vers anglais Affaires / Finance Entreprise / commerce Facility Management Contract
5th bullet point. Is there an English 'buzzword' or term for 'démarche qualité renforcée' - I'm sure I should know it, but can't think of it. Thanks!

Pour ce faire, nous avons identifié des premières sources d’optimisation :
 Adéquation des moyens aux niveaux de service attendus par IBM en particulier en matière de sécurité, accueil et nettoyage,
 Re-engineering des processus métiers de nos prestataires,
 Allongement de la durée des contrats,
 Elargissement de leur périmètre hors IBM pour leur faire bénéficier d’économies d’échelle,
 Suppression des redondances dans les contrôles internes et externes par une démarche qualité renforcée,
 Mutualisation du management national des différents prestataires ou reprise du management,
 Simplification de la gestion administrative par le recours à l’informatisation et au partage des données,
 Recherche de synergie entre les prestations.
Change log

Jun 8, 2005 15:20: Gayle Wallimann changed "Level" from "Non-PRO" to "PRO"

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

PRO (1): df49f (X)

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

a xxxxx quality approach

the "démarche qualité" is known in English mgt jargon as the "quality approach".
Particularly used in contexts of companies seeking ISO 9001 quality certification, but not only by them.

It's slightly different from "quality control" per se (which tends to refer to a physical checking of a concrete deliverable, be it milk or a computer program), since it can include such relatively esoteric elements as version control of internal documents (voice of experience there - dullest job I ever did!), or ensuring that HR procedures are consistent and followed properly.

As for the adjective - I leave it to you to seek the most popular on google (!), although "improved" would seem a good option, a priori :-)
Peer comment(s):

agree df49f (X) : oui "démarche qualité" is the entire quality policy/approach qui comporte entre autres du "quality control" mais aussi tous les autres points listés dans la question
