Dietrich Hofmann

Abstract

The big number of management methods has more than 200 expressions with different names. In alphabetical order one can start with ABC management, the abbreviation for adaptive, bioregional & cooperative management [www.orst.edu/instruction] through Theory Z management for the improvement of human resource management [www.an.af.mil/database/research]. <BR />Measurement, Instrumentation & Test Management MTM is a newcomer to management science and practice as well as to education & training. The mission of MTM is to bridge the gap between the rigid framework of measurement engineering on the basis of legal metrology and the more experienced daily measurement, instrumentation and test practices. <BR />The purpose of the paper is to provide answers to the questions: <BR />- WHY do we need MTM <BR />- WHAT is MTM <BR />- WHAT are MTM standards <BR />- WHAT to do in MTM education.
