In his article, "Quality Snags in the Mortgage-Finance Supply Chain," Paul Zipkin provides a provocative exploration and discussion, thoughtful analysis, and several recommendations for the application of quality management concepts, tools, and techniques to help improve the quality of the mortgage-finance supply chain. This commentary offers several thoughts on some of the systems issues associated with implementing and sustaining the changes that Zipkin recommends.
