Speaker
Steve Gompertz is a leader in Quality Systems management. His career includes roles in quality systems development and implementation, project management, engineering automation, configuration management, audit, and software development for companies including St. Jude Medical, Boston Scientific, Medtronic, Vital Images, and Control Data. He holds a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from Lehigh University, and certifications in quality management, biomedical auditing, project management, and configuration management.
Mr. Gompertz has developed a Quality Systems Capability Model merging Risk Management and CMMI concepts to create the only method available to quantitatively measure a quality system’s effectiveness and potential. He is also responsible for coining the term, “dysfunctional compliance” to describe the situation where a company meets all regulatory and statutory requirements but still experiences significant quality issues due to not addressing quality from a true systems perspective.
