3. Good Care Needs Systems
Do all you can behind the scenes to save your customers time, money and aggravation.

3.2 Keep adequate stock levels.
3.3 Check your production procedures.
- Cut out any bottlenecks that could cause unnecessary delays.
3.4 Set up a production process that ensures no defects, rather than relying on inspection of the finished product.
