The aim of this study is the evaluation of the parameters of core mixtures using different binder systems with regard to the collapsibility of cores after casting and the resulting product quality of castings reflecting surface requirements based on non-ferrous alloys. The research compares organically bonded core mixtures based on phenol-formaldehyde resins for the production of cores with the shell molding (resin coated sand), currently used in the production of aluminum alloy castings in the Brembo Czech s.r.o., and mixtures using innovative inorganic binder systems based on geopolymers; GEOPOL® W. The aim of the research is to compare the advantages and disadvantages of these binder systems in order to evaluate the potential of inorganically bonded mixtures to replace organically bonded mixtures, which would lead to a significant reduction in the environmental impacts of industrial production of castings.

Purpose: The primary purpose of this paper is to identify the most important factors related to the successful implementation of TQM in the literature and to compare the identified factors with the existing research. Methodology/Approach: By conducting a systematic literature review in three main stages, this research analyzes 13 empirical papers published between 1995 and 2017. Three main stages included: formulation of the problem to be solved by the systematic literature review; definition of inclusion criteria and exclusion of articles; and article search and selection. Findings: Analysing previous research and conducting a literature review, we identify six main critical success factors (CSF): top management leadership and commitment, customer focus, training (employees), procurement management (suppliers), information and analysis, and process management. Research Limitation/Implication: In this paper, we focused solely on the influence of TQM practices on the financial performance of a company. As such, the non-financial performance indicators were not considered. Originality/Value of paper: This paper adds value to the existing literature as it focuses on critical factors of TQM implementation examined in relation to the financial performance of the company and provides a good basis for understanding and developing more complex models.

Quality has become an increasingly important and critical success factor at higher education institutions, particularly universities. Numerous discussions have been held about education quality in the context of sustainable development. However, the quality of that education strongly depends on the overall quality of the management system which operates at schools. The principal aim of this article is to present the approaches to the quality management systems’ development and their assessment at universities, and share some lessons learned from this area of research. Some possibilities of the ISO 9001 standard’s implementation, as well as the application of excellence models as a response to community demands, will be discussed, especially in the context of the recently-introduced Act No. 111/1998 Coll on Higher Education Institutions, which requires quality assurance and quality evaluation. A case study from The VSB-Technical University of Ostrava shows approaches, results and effects of the quality management system implementation.
