Operational Excellence in Africa

This special issue highlights the current state of Quality Management and Operational Excellence in Africa as well as analysing the different tools and practises utilised across all types of processes, organisations and sectors demonstrating examples and learnings from practical applications across the continent. This special issue will showcase the excellent research and application of OpEx methods on the African continent thus enabling benchmarking and sharing of OpEx methods. There has been a lack of research articles on operational excellence in various sectors, which have focused exclusively on Africa especially in the southern and middle parts of Africa as they face unique challenges due to their diverse landscapes, demographics, and socio-economic factors.
