"Learn, apply, and extend the teachings
of Dr. W. Edwards Deming and to help others do the same."
Our thanks to Mike Tveite for the use of his
aim.
The DEN came out of a conversation between Myron
Tribus, Tom Glenn, Del Kimbler, John Hunter, and Jim Clauson at the first
Deming Institute Conference in early 1994. We envisioned using the Internet
to share, network, and support activities of Deming "followers" world wide.
The DEN originated as a discussion list supported
by Tom Glenn on his home system, along with his original TQM BBS and the
Community Quality Electronic Network. In early 1995, the file area and
the discussion list became too much for Tom's system, and Del Kimbler volunteered
hardware, software, and technical support at the CQI server at the Department
of Industrial Engineering at Clemson University in Clemson, SC.
