The Quality and Productivity Section executive committee met on August 25 to review the accomplishments of 2025 and discuss areas of focus for 2026.
Q&P remains financially strong, successfully hosted short courses at the Quality and Productivity Research Conference and Joint Statistical Meetings, and co-organized a mixer with the Section on Physical and Engineering Sciences at JSM.
In 2026, Q&P aims to better create value for its members and continue strong early-career and student support through scholarships and grants, including two student grants for attending the Fall Technical Conference.
The section continues to work on a video series, History of Quality, which will be available for free digital download for educational purposes from the American Society for Quality’s website.
Additionally, Q&P is exploring new opportunities for collaboration with the Caucus of Industry Representatives.
