My ISO Journey of 10 years in Science Park

Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks Corporation (HKSTPC) has recognized as Outstanding Organization with Comprehensive Management Systems by Hong Kong Quality Assurance Agency (HKQAA) in their 25th Anniversary Recognition Program on 28 Nov 2014. Ir. Dr. The Hon WK Lo (Chairman of HKQAA) presented the award to Mr. Kevin Edmunds (Senior Manager, Sustainability Development) and I (Manager, Quality System).


The trophy is showed below.


I would like to share my 10 years ISO Journey in Science Park since Dec 2003. At that time, I was consultant (The first one man SOHO consultant achieved HKQAA ISO 9001 certification with cert. no: CC2286 in 2002.) and provided service to Science Park. Then, I have joined Science Park as Manager (Quality System) since Jan 2007. Quality related works in Science Park are summarized below.

ISO 9001 – Quality Management System (QMS)
I started my project in Science Park since Dec 2003 to assist Product Analysis Laboratory (PAL) (previous name of IC Failure Analysis Laboratory (ICFAL) and Material Analysis Laboratory (MAL)) to achieve ISO 9001. At that time, the laboratory was less than 10 people. After that the scope extended to IC Development Support Centre (ICDSC) (included Probe & Test Development Centre (PTDC) and Reliability Laboratory (RL)), and to IC Design Centre (ICDC) in May 2004. The scope extended continuously including Solid State Lighting Laboratory (SSLL) (previous name of Photonic Development Testing Centre (PDTC)) in Mar 2005, IP Serving Centre (IPSC) in Nov 2006, Wireless Communications Test Laboratory (WCTL) in Jul 2007, PV Testing Laboratory (PVTL) and Biotechnology Support Laboratory (BSL) in Jun 2009. So that the whole Technology Support Centre (TSC), included all laboratories, achieved ISO 9001 QMS with about 45 engineers in 2009.
In 2008, top management would like to extend ISO 9001 QMS from Laboratory to whole corporation. First, we performed a corporate-wide exercise to define a unique code for all documentation in the HKSTPC and started the Corp ISO project in 2009. I re-activated our electronic documentation management system (eDMS) to fulfill the document control requirements. The first stage was to extend the ISO 9001 from Laboratory to my division named Business Development and Technology Support (BDTS) which included TSC, Incubation Program and Industry & University Collaboration (IUC) and completed in Mar 2010. Moreover, our team got the performance recognition on 13 May 2010. Then, I was in-charge the Corp ISO 9001 project to assist different divisions to complete the ISO 9001 certification included Project & Facilities (P&F) in Dec 2011, Publicity & Communication (P&C) in Mar 2011, Finance & Corporation Service (F&CS), HR, IT & IA in Mar 2012, and Marketing & Sale (M&S) in Feb 2012. Finally, we achieved Corporation ISO 9001 certificate in Mar 2012.

ISO/IEC 17025 – Quality Management System for Laboratories
I had developed a test method named “Test Method for Measurement of Thickness of Metallic Coatings by Measurement of Cross-section with a Scanning Electron Microscope” which based on ASTM B748-90 (Reapproved 2010) for IC Failure Analysis Laboratory (ICFAL) and achieved ISO/IEC 17025 under Hong Kong Laboratory Accreditation Scheme (HOKLAS) since Sep 2005. The same method had extended to Material Analysis Laboratory for HOKLAS accreditation in Jun 2011. The other method I developed was “Determination of delamination using scanning acoustic microscope after preconditioning in accordance with IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020D” and accredited in Jun 2008. In addition, I got the best paper award in ANQ Congress 2014 and my paper entitled “Investigation on the Measurement Uncertainty of Scanning Electron & Acoustic Microscopy under HOKLAS scheme”. On the other hand, I worked with WCTL team to seek China National Accreditation Service (CNAS) accreditation for 3GPP pre-conformance test in Aug 2010 and then our team got performance recognition for CNAS on 16 Feb 2011.

ISO/IEC 27001 – Information Security Management System (ISMS)
Since ICDC and IPSC handled customer’s semiconductor design and IP, top management decided to implement Information Security Management System in ICDC & IPSC first. I developed the ISO/IEC 27001 ISMS and InfoSec FMEA for risk assessment in ICDC & IPSC which have certified by HKQAA since Feb 2008. Then we extended and upgraded ISO/IEC 27001 from version 2005 to version 2013 to the whole TSC in Dec 2014. Our team members got the performance recognition on 5 Aug 2008. Moreover, I wrote a paper named “Integration of Quality Management System and Information Security Management System - HKSTP implementation case” for ANQ Congress 2009 and got the best paper award.

OHSAS 18001 – Occupational Health and Safety Management System (OHSMS)
Both Quality and Safety are important in our laboratories; therefore, we have implemented and certified OHSAS 18001 OHSMS in TSC by HKQAA since Mar 2009. Our team also obtained performance recognition on 30 July 2009. After that the whole corporation has been extended to achieve OHSAS 18001 certification in Mar 2011. I had joined the Safety & Health Poster Design Competition (Workplace) and got Bronze Award on 5 Dec 2012.

ISO 14001 – Environmental Management System (EMS)
Safety Health & Environmental (SHE) team led corporation and our team led laboratories to implement EMS and achieved the ISO 14001 certification in Mar 2013.

ISO 50001 – Energy Management System (EnMS)
P&F team led the ISO 50001 EnMS implementation in the building of Bio-Informatics Centre and achieved the first ISO 50001 Energy Management System certification in Hong Kong by SGS in Jun 2011. The certificate presentation was arranged in the 2nd Occupational Safety and Health Conference in Science Park on 26 October 2011.

The ISO milestone is showed as following diagram.

政改賽局

今年政治事件特別多,雨傘革命/運動之後又有「鳩嗚」團影響他人。一群學生、教授、泛民把「Pandora's Box」打開了,從此香港不會有平靜安寧的日子過。從前的「同檯食飯,各自修行。」及「斷人衣食,又如殺人父母。」的觀念已經不存在。 本人推崇的自由法則即「在不妨礙別人的自由這個前提下,我們可以盡量爭取我們的自由。」及伏爾泰的名句:「我雖不同意你的意見,但我會誓死保護你的發言權」好像不再被尊重;而且梭羅(公民抗命的始祖)說:「真理不會自相矛盾,也不會專用錯誤的手段去彰顯正義。」更被忽略。

二次創作:和尚擔遮,無法無天。


本人嘗試用賽局理論(Game Theory)來分析香港政改,發現否決方案有如「囚犯困境」而達到「納殊均衡」(Nash Equilibrium)!在以下政改決策圖中,對不同團體有利為1,平為0及不利為-1。對泛民來說,否決方案對政黨有利,尤其是激進泛民。對建制派來說,被泛民否決方案同樣有利(因維持小圈子影響力及可把責任推至泛民。);對中央沒有影響,但港府成為輸家(市民亦然)。


之前的「佔中」,其實是「膽小鬼賽局」(Chicken Game)。以下是他們三種選擇:
一、中央讓步,佔中不讓步。(中央認同佔中人士的要求。)
二、中央不讓步,佔中讓步。(佔中人士跟隨中央的人大決定。)
三、中央不讓步,佔中不讓步。(發起雨傘革命/運動,不合作開始。)
之後出現選項三,但這是一個動態賽局(Dynamic Game),時間可以解決問題。最終中央依然是不讓步,佔中被迫撤離佔領區。在策略上,中央的「不妥協、不流血」贏成條街。

我在「非理性的世界,不穩定的世代。」一文中提出:今次政改是硬著陸或軟著陸?如果不依據基本法來爭取最大空間,而用佔中來達到公民提名,就像叫人從十樓跳下去,看看能不能軟著陸,而不是腿斷身亡! 正如魔術師在「冬天的童話」中的金句:「要跳樓才可證明地心吸力的存在?」來突出學聯佔領行動升級的邏輯。

二次創作:進擊的學人


《日日去鳩嗚》華仔落場版MV
雖然不贊成鳩嗚團影響其他人及商店,但在創作戲仿來看真是一絕。
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T2UW7VawmGI 

如我創作戲仿會用以下的經典歌。
《拒絕再玩》-張國榮
潮流興多花款,隨便「鳩嗚」
潮流興將「抗爭」當作新基本。
但我厭倦(倦也悶)在某天已拒絕再玩
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-C_3LqTNVgI 

而浮誇這首歌用來描述泛民及雙學真是無得頂!
《浮誇》-陳奕迅
你當我是浮誇吧 誇張只因我很怕
似木頭 似石頭 的話 得到注意嗎
其實怕被忘記 至放大來演吧
很不安 怎去優雅
世上還讚頌沉默嗎
不夠爆炸 怎麼有話題
讓我誇 做大娛樂家
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QHUNwcYPOWM 

還有是周星馳的鹿鼎記其中兩段對話
一、「反清復明」只是一個口號,同阿彌陀佛一樣。(「反清復明」=「我要真普選」?)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ppx0KGUJDNA


陳近南:小寶,你是個聰明人,我可以用聰明的方法跟人說話。外面的人就不行!
韋小寶:不解!
陳近南:讀過書明事理的人,大多數已經在清廷裏面當官了。所以我們要對抗清廷,就要用一些蠢一點的人。對付那些蠢人,就絕對不可以跟他們說真話,必須要用宗教形式來催眠他們,使他們覺得所做的事都是對的,所以“反清復明”只不過是個口號,跟“阿彌陀佛”其實是一樣的。清朝一直欺壓我們漢人,搶走我們的銀兩跟女人,所以我們要反清。
韋小寶:要反清搶回我們的錢跟女人,是不是,根本復不復明就多舊魚,關人鬼事!行了,大家聰明人,了解!繼續!

二、「反清復明」是你畢生志願,就要人民受苦? (「真普選」是你畢生志願,就要「佔中」和「鳩嗚」至人民受苦?)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iv9SeBsDMZI 

陳近南:你好聰明,在這個亂世只要你唔貪圖榮華富貴,一定可以推翻滿清,復我大漢江山
韋小寶:師父,係就至好啦!不過弟子有D唔明,自從康熙登位,四海昇平國泰民安,點解係都要推翻佢?
陳近南:因為呢個係我畢生的志願。
韋小寶:不過為左你畢生的志願,要打仗,要人民受苦,會唔會有點……

ASQ InfVoices – Quality Ambitious in HKSQ and ANQ

The last topic of ASQ Influence Voices in 2014 was raised by Mr. Bill Troy question “Is Quality Ambitious Enough?”. He also advised us to keep the following two questions in mind:
- How do we encourage those who work in quality to understand their own value?
- How do we spread the message of quality in a marketplace overflowing with ideas about how to boost profitability and ever-changing management trends?
Then he mentioned ASQ’s mission “To increase the use and impact of quality in response to the diverse needs of the world.” and expressed his idea of ASQ mission to be more ambitious such as “To improve the function and value of goods and services worldwide, and to facilitate the development of new products and services that improve the quality of life.”

That let me thinking about HKSQ mission that “To promote greater awareness of the need for quality in Hong Kong for ensuring product and service excellence through continuous improvement of quality and customer satisfaction, and to provide continuing education to professionals involved in the quality and reliability disciplines.” Since all HKSQ executive committee members are voluntary and we haven’t full time staff, HKSQ can only run under extreme lean approach to provide our service. However, I can say we are the most active quality society in Hong Kong. Eventhough we have only limited resource included human resource and money, we could provide many activities included seminars, visits, workshops at least once per month, 3 times of newsletter per year and AGM gathering, as well as, Student Project Competition. Our new leaflet graphic showed that HKSQ as a key to open different quality aspects from Hong Kong to China, Asia and the World. It seems to enhance our Ambitious and our new slogan is “Quality and Innovation Today, Success Tomorrow”. Comparison on the resource between HKSQ and ASQ, I think HKSQ is enough ambitious at this moment.


However, I appreciated another ambitious organization named Asian Network for Quality (ANQ) which is consisting of all non-profit organizations in Asia that seek to improve quality of human life by contributing to the progress of science and technology; and to the development of industry through promotional activities for the research and development of philosophy, theory, methodology and application in the field of quality and quality management.

The following diagram showed the ANQ Way.
ANQ Way: Various regions of Asia form Asian Network for Quality with the Goal of contributing to creativity, integration, prosperity and quality of human life in Asia through the Strategy based on constancy of purpose, knowledge creation, voluntary spirit and system approach to improvement; living the Asian Way of harmony in diversity, mutual respect and austerity; following Core Values based on honesty, flexibility and self-control.
