Ep 157 Tom Taormina and BMS "Business Management System"

In today's podcast episode, Tom Taormina shares his insights on a
project he's been working on called the BMS, or Business Management
System. Taormina explained that the BMS is a comprehensive system
that integrates all the various components of a business into a
cohesive whole. This includes everything from finance and
accounting to operations and customer service, effecitvly picking
up where ISO 9001:2015 leaves off, and without any of the confusing
jargon ISO has become known for. Throughout the episode, Taormina
shared real-world examples of how the BMS has been successfully
implemented in a variety of businesses, from small startups to
large corporations. He highlighted how the BMS can help these
businesses streamline their processes, improve their operations,
and ultimately become more successful. Darci, the host of the
podcast, chimed in to discuss how these same ideas and tools could
benefit education. She noted that schools and universities face
many of the same challenges as businesses, such as managing
finances, optimizing operations, and delivering excellent customer
service (in the form of quality education). Taormina agreed,
pointing out that the BMS could be adapted to meet the unique needs
of educational institutions. He suggested that the BMS could be
used to manage student data, track progress, and streamline
administrative processes, among other things. This, in turn, could
help schools and universities deliver better outcomes for their
students while operating more efficiently and effectively.
Throughout the episode, Taormina and Darci emphasized the
importance of taking a holistic approach to business (and
education) management. They stressed that all the various
components of an organization are interconnected and should be
managed as such. By implementing a system like the BMS, businesses
and educational institutions can more effectively manage their
resources, optimize their operations, and ultimately achieve
greater success. http://texasqa.com/ https://www.qualitydigest.com/
