Abstract

During the long and arduous journey of the Volkswagen group IT towards a better quality culture we have established a better understanding of product quality. We were distressed about our internal struggle whether the traditional or the agile approach of quality management is the only way of life. The authors were involved in these struggles, Alexander for the traditional approach and Mirko for the agile way until we discovered that our goals were exactly the same: how do we produce high quality products with an optimal cost and effect ratio. While reading this paper we want to show our starting point of the discussion about traditional and agile QM and how we evolved the discussion to an integrated QM-Concept which got farer than software development only.
